'Tryin'
To Get To Tahoe' (label E.P. Collector, EPC 2014-02) recorded at the
Lake Tahoe, NV, May 16, 1974 Opening show. Elvis' spring '74 shows were
consistently strong, and the May concerts in Lake Tahoe were no
exception. Elvis' shows there were solid and entertaining, and he was in
particularly good voice. The set lists offered a wide variety of music,
and Elvis' commitment and enthusiasm made these intimate shows very
memorable for those who were lucky enough to attend them. The show on
this CD has never been released in any form, and this very decent,
digitally restored audience recording gives you a unique perspective of
what it was like to experience him in person in Lake Tahoe during this
engagement.
The
CD is packaged in a nicely designed digipack with rare Lake Tahoe, May
'74 cover shot and collection of 'Peacock' images taken in Cleveland
show on June 21st, 1974.
