ST. LOUIS / SPOKANE - SONY 506020 975144
Recordings 1976

Cover
St. Louis and Spokane Spring 1976

A forthcomming 2-CD release from Follow That Dream containing soundboard recordings from Spring 1976. Both shows are previously unreleased, also unofficially (bootlegs), but four tracks from Spokane have been available since America was released in 2008.

CD-1 contains the tour ending show in St. Louis March 22 1976. Even though the concert most likely was recorded in binaural, it is released in mono here. The flow on these few March 1976 shows are a little different, with Larrie London new on drums and Shane Keister new on piano. Compared to the other shows from this short tour, Elvis is weak in his voice in St. Louis, especially after an incident during 'You Gave Me A Mountain' (a woman runs on stage and Elvis).

The second CD contains the complete Spokane concert on April 27, 1976. This reveals an ok soundboard recording. Generally Elvis was in strong voice on both March and April, though with variations from day to day.
