Queste fantastiche e potenti esibizioni sono state registrate dal vivo in Agosto del 1970 allo Showroom dell'International Hotel di Las Vegas, in Nevada.
I primi spettacoli dell'ingaggio di Agosto sono stati filmati dalla MGM per il leggendario film "That's The Way It Is" e registrati dall'etichetta discografica per la pubblicazione della colonna sonora.
Le registrazioni che si ascoltano qui - audience recording - sono state registrate dopo che le troupe della MGM e della RCA se ne furono andate.
Elvis è di ottimo umore e sembra molto rilassato. Questo è Elvis al meglio delle possibilità. Energico, ribelle ed al massimo delle sue forze. Godetevi queste portentose esibizioni!
Tutti gli spettacoli sono stati rimasterizzati e portati alla velocità corretta, ove necessario. Vengono presentati in confezioni deluxe e in edizione molto limitata.
