Review : Hillcrest Blues - Standing Room Only Tapes, Vol. 3 CD

Well. This little baby arrived in my house yesterday and somewhat astounded me. In a way, it was like re-living the old days of collecting bootlegs - waiting for the new Bilko or Vicky release of On Tour material. Very similar feeling only with that 21st century sensibility. This time it's more complete. This time the packaging is top class. More importantly, this time the sound is truly stunning.

Review - Talk of The Town CD

In conclusion, this is a fabulous concert and a personal favourite. It's also an important release, as it includes first time performances of almost all the new songs introduced during this engagement. In short, it's impossible not to be delighted by Elvis' performance, as he proves to be in top form and makes an effort on virtually every song. This one's a revelation…which makes it essential in anyone's book.
