Elvis Snowbird Revisited
With great pleasure GRAVELROAD MUSIC announces the release of this excellent Show of 1971.

Deluxe Full color Digipack with 16-page booklet includes rare photos and extensive liner notes. Also included a Special bonus gift; a reproduction of an extremely rare two sided promo card this was only available in January - February 1971 at the International Hotel.

The January 29, 1971 Dinner show at the International Hotel Las Vegas.

It hardly needs introduction; the set list is a well-balanced mix with an impressive show!

A strong mix of his hits and fills the show with his latest recordings and topping it of with par excellence covers of very popular recent top ten charts hits like "You Don't Have To Say You Love Me, Sweet Caroline, You've Lost That Loving Feeling, Polk Salad, Something, Snowbird".

Even the closing of the show had a drastic change.

Making the performances of January /February 1971 by far the most energizing starts of a Vegas Season.

The extra's are a part of the Snowbird studio session with the unreleased undubbed Master take 6 & a rare take of the vocal harmony overdub by Elvis.

As extra bonus we included a seven-minute telephone conversation, privately taped in March/April 1971.

Elvis talks about recording sessions and performing in Las Vegas, his scary International Hotel earthquake experience. (The California/Nevada area had a big earthquake in February 1971).
