Autumn Gold - Audionics
 

Audionics will release new 2-CD set in early August: "AUTUMN GOLD." It will include the complete South Bend, Indiana show from October 1st, 1974 and a generous chunk of the famous August 16, 1974 RCA Hollywood rehearsal in a totally different sound - binaural stereo, as it was originally recorded. The South Bend date was originally issued in 2003 by Follow That Dream, but "Killing Me Softly With His Song" and some stage dialogue were omitted, and the closing vamp was clipped.

Though Elvis’ personal problems were affecting some of his shows around this time, he seemed to be in fine fettle in South Bend. Overall, this show presents a solid and pleasing performance by Elvis, and though it has been released before, we can now enjoy a more complete and -- most importantly - sonically superior recording of this concert!

The August 16, 1974 rehearsal surfaced on bootleg compact disc in 1995, then officially fourteen years later on Follow That Dream. For the first time, Audionics presents these songs as originally recorded, in binaural stereo; and the sound is better than ever before. Unfortunately, the entire tape is unavailable, but all the essential performances are here. It is a real pleasure to listen tracks like "Softly As I Leave You" and "Twelfth Of Never" in binaural form.

"AUTUMN GOLD" is presented in a great-looking 2-disc digipak with a 20-page booklet filled with photographs taken that night in South Bend and at additional live shows and candids from March, August and October 1974.
All these recordings have been carefully engineered to be presented in the best possible sound.

Und wieder wird der Begriff falsch verwendet, denn es gibt absolut keinerlei sogenannte "Binaural Stereo" Aufnahmen im gesamten Elvis Universum - ich zitiere Wikipedia:

Das August 16th RCA Studio C Rehearsal wurde mit einem ganz normalen Kassettenrekorder, welcher mit dem Studiomischpult verbunden war, aufgezeichnet.
Binaural Stereo, my ass.

Ich hab die From Sunsetblvrd to Paradiseroad und die FTD...also ich denke mal, diese Scheibe klemm ich mir!

Wikipedia schreibt so viel Müll...wenn ich das alles für bare Münze nehmen würde....aber wenn Richie es sagt, dann glaub ich`s....:top:

BINAURAL ist ein Vorläufer des STEREO Verfahrens. Ein BINAURAL STEREO gibt es nicht. :-)

Das sehe ich genauso!!!:-)

Ich hol sie mir weil mir das Cover gefällt

Na komm, als Sammler der sich jede gepresste CD zulegt, machst du es sicherlich nicht vom Cover abhaengig! :grins:

Ich hol sie mir, weil ich sie in binauralem Stereo hören will...und wegen Killing Me Softly ...:hurra:

Wenn es die überarbeitete Version des Konzerts ist, die ich zufällig gehört habe, wird FTD mal wieder sehr blass aussehen...

Abgesehen davon, dass es von der Tour - und im Besonderen von dem Konzert gute Fotos gibt - bekommt die VÖ ein augenscheinlich besseres Design verpasst als die grottenhäßliche FTD.

Die Rehearsals dagegen braucht wohl niemand ein drittes Mal.
