Even though this album bore the same front cover as Elvis' U.K. debut LP, "Rock n' Roll" album. This is not a re-issue because it used the same tracklisting as it's U.S. counterpart. It meant that finally U.K. fans had it as part of their UK collection, but unfortunately in electronic stereo.

​​
This double album was a collection of live performances recorded by RCA for CBS Television. Sourced from two live concerts given by Elvis in June 1977. Most of the songs came from the show in Rapid City on the 21st, as Elvis gave a less inspiring performance two days earlier in Omaha. It also included comments from the fans and a special message from Elvis' father Vernon.
​
NOTE: This album released in 1985, should follow suit with other German releases and have the album label stating BIEM over GEMA as was standard at this time. But I am not sure about this as the Variation I have used shows GEMA over BIEM which means it could have been pressed in 1984.
