KANSAS CITY REVISITED

MILLBRANCH MUSIC is back after nearly 10 years and this time we have been able to work with a completely new team of enthusiasts! The result is that we are now able to present a great 3-Disc Digipack release for every serious “Elvis live in the 70´s” – collector! Since just about everything has changed in our way of approaching an Elvis CD project we are absolutely sure that this time there is quality all the way in terms of sound (no audience recordings) and performances!

Introducing our first “Soundboard” release on the “MM” label here are two performances by Elvis and his exciting group of musicians (Afternoon and Evening show from the same day) at his fabulous early Summer 1974 Tour. Kansas City was the place to go on June 29, 1974, because Elvis was willing to deliver two extremely entertaining shows of high standard – and he did!

The evening show of this day has been released a couple of times already, but never before in such great sound quality. Now that is interesting of course, but have you ever heard the afternoon show from the same day (Soundboard-Recording)? Probably not, as that one has NOT been released yet in any form. Until now……..
We believe that the pairing of these two Kansas City shows alone already make a very nice package – but we would not talk about a “great” release if it was just “nice to have”, so we decided to make it kind of “perfect” and added a third disc and that is a DVD! You will have the best possible visual accompaniment for the two shows of June 29, 74 – perfectly synched with the same incredible sound that you can hear on our cd´s! We also have been able to obtain the best possible HD picture quality for our project and so you will be able to not only hear, but also to see the “real deal”. But that is not even all, since there is even more to “discover” on our DVD, which is included in the package!
