The Complete 1976 8mm Films - THE DEFINATIVE EDITION - 4 DVD Set

For as long as Elvis import dvds have been circulating, the only good 1976 set to rely on for the best amount of footage was the crown series. Unfortunately, the set lacked a lot of footage that has since been released, and the footage that was there suffered from bad quality. This set can finally lay the crown set to rest and provide the absolute best quality of all films from 1976 ever released. Since these films presented on discs 1 - 3 are in their raw form, you may see footatge from the same show shot from a different part of the audience in their original audio.

For instance, for the New Years Eve show, there were 5 cameras recording and on disc 3 is each minute of all of the footage captured from all 5 sources. The 4th disc is a compilation of 7 remastered concerts from 1976, using multiple angles and the best possible audio including soundboard recordings to bring the fans 7 complete to near complete concerts for your collection in one disc. To make the disc even better, each concert has its own chapters for each song making it a very enjoyable experience to watch these concerts in their completed remastered form, and skip to your favorite songs. This set shows footage from 43 Concerts and is the DEFINATIVE collection of 1976 8mm films, all derived from their original sources.

Disc 4:

EID Presents "The Complete Phoenix Over Tennessee Performance"

This new dvd from EID contains the complete performance from Elvis' opening Tour Show for 1976. The sound has been synched with the excellent audience recording heard on the cd "Phoenix Over Tennessee." Elvis was not moving like he used to, but his voice was still incredible. On this night, Elvis has almost an entirely different band (including drummer, piano, keyboards, ect..) and as a result, all of the songs are played different than normal. You will notice a lot of the songs that are usually sung at a rapid pace were slowed down considerably on this night with Elvis clearly singing each and every word.

Highlights from this show include Until It's Time For You To Go, the very first live version of Hurt, the first on tour version of America The Beautiful (aside from the NYE '75 show), and Burning Love (which is not found on the cd).
Recorded live at the Freedom Hall, Johnson City/Tennessee, March 17, 1976. 2001 Theme, See See Rider, I got A Woman/Amen, Love Me, You Gave Me A Mountain, Tryin' To Get To You, ASll Shook Up, Teddy Bear/Don't Be Cruel, Until It's Time For You To Go, Hurt, Polk Salad Annie, Introductions/What'd I say, And I Love You So, How Great Thou Art, Love Me Tender, Let Me Be There, America The Beautiful, Burning Love (incomplete), Heartbreak Hotel, Hound Dog, Hawaiian Wedding Song, Mystery Train/Tiger Man, Can't Help Falling In love, Closing Vamp, Announcements.

"EID Presents Elvis - The Complete New Year's Eve Performance"
All Elvis fans have seen bits and pieces of this historical show from one source or another. For a while, we had a good release in Rockin' New Year's Eve, but we still suffered with some footage so fuzzy and color-bled that it hurt our eyes just to watch. For the first and only time, this magical show is now available to all Elvis fans and collectors alike with each and every single song Elvis sang at this concert in beautiful quality! With the help of STAR, FTF, and EID we finally get to see the real footage of all songs including Blue Suede Shoes, Hound Dog, Unchained Melody, and Rags To Riches! As an added treat, all footage has been magnificently restored from the original films for optimum results making this by far the most complete and best looking release yet.
Running Time 1 Hour 9 Minutes

Total Running Time 5 Hours 50 minutes

Total Running time of entire set: 20 Hours
