Live 1969 is a brand new Elvis Presley 11CD box set that marks the 50th anniversary of his performances at the International Hotel in Las Vegas.
Returning to the stage for the first time in eight years, the 1969 Vegas run saw Presley perform 57 sold-out shows and the live debut of ‘Suspicious Minds’. During this residency he was backed by two vocal groups (The Imperials and The Sweet Inspirations), a full orchestra and a band later known as the TCB band.
Live 1969 features the release of eleven complete sets from Elvis’ August 1969 engagement at Las Vegas’ International Hotel. Of these performances, four are being released in full for the first time ever – including two Elvis shows that have remained almost completely unheard for fifty years (August 22 and 25).
This package comes with a 52-page booklet with photos, images of memorabilia and more.
Released at the same time (in early August) is a 2LP vinyl set called Live at the International Hotel, Las Vegas, NV August 26, 1969 (not quite as snappy as Live 1969). The vinyl release features Elvis’ complete set from 26 August’s midnight show. The material includes a repertoire of blues-tinged rock ‘n’ roll, ballads and his new singles ‘In The Ghetto’ and ‘Suspicious Minds’.
These new physical releases are issued on 9 August 2019, via Sony’s Legacy Recordings.
