Description
UK Label ‘Memphis Recording Service’ (MRS) continuing its 20-year anniversary (2005-2025) will release a 2CD Deluxe and 2LP Gatefold in both black and clear vinyl titled ‘LAS VEGAS – ‘THE RAGING TIGER’ CLOSING NIGHT 1974’ in November 2025.
The set features one of Elvis’ most controversial performances recorded during his closing night at the Las Vegas Hilton, on the 2nd of September 1974. Although the show was strong and well performed, at various points throughout, Elvis frequently broke off to ramble about unrelated topics displaying unprofessional and inappropriate behaviour, that included some explosive outbursts and angry out-of-character threats.
For the first time ever, the original recording has been remastered and mixed into stereo. The accompanying booklet features rare photographs and memorabilia from the event and also includes liner notes that set the scene.
The 2LP sets and will be available in both Black and Clear vinyl. Please note, the clear vinyl is ONLY available from exclusive Elvis dealers and fan clubs and NOT thru mainstream public stores.
