Our new CD is titled "BUMPS ARE GONE BUT HE’S STILL KING!
(E. P. Collector label, catalogue number EPC 2018-19).

The Hartford, July 28th, 1976 show is previously unreleased in complete audience recorded form.
Audionics released parts of this show taken from a soundboard source (CD "Across The Country," 2005). Unfortunately, a complete soundboard recording of this concert does not exist.

The E. P. Collector label had complete audience tape of very good sound quality in vaults for many, many years and finally decided to release it. July 28th, 1976 is the longest and perhaps the best show
from this particular tour. Among the concert highlights there are fantastic performances of ,,Jailhouse Rock“, „America“, „Polk Salad Annie“ and „Hurt“.
There is one special moment too, when Elvis sings „Happy Birthday“ to Kitty Kahane, daughter of Elvis friend, comedian Jackie Kahane.

This show was restored with a great care with focus on not changing the integrity of the original monaural recording. You may ask your supplier for samples. If you are fan of good audience recordings,
we bet that you will like the sound!

The CD is packaged in a nicely designed digipack with a concert review and a collection of images taken during the Hartford concert on July 28, 1976.
If you have enjoyed our previous 1976 releases like „The First Time Ever I Lay With You“ and „Looked Into The Wings”, then you are sure to enjoy our latest release, too.

We would like to thank you for your continuing support. We are planning some surprises for 2019, including totally new shows, so stay tuned!
