Elvis The Concert 2002 DVD

Die DVD ist wirklich gut gemacht. Es macht Spaß das Konzert anzuschauen, bekommt man wieder richtig Lust es wieder live zu erleben. Es wurde sehr schnell und modern geschnitten.
Das einzige negative sind für mich die kurzen Kommentare von Ronnie Tutt, Joe Guercio usw., kommen doch an sehr ungünstigen Stellen, direkt nach dem 2001 Thema z.B, oder während Suspicious Minds. Das hätte man sich lieber sparen sollen da ja die Interviews noch in einem separaten Kapitel auf der DVD kommen.
Aber insgesamt macht es einen Riesenspaß die DVD anzuschauen, die Umsetzung ist super gelungen. Bin angenehm überrascht.

Mal wieder ein review:

At last Elvis fans get the chance to re-live the 25th Anniversary "Elvis The Concert" performance. This has been kicking around on bootleg, filmed by an audience member, for a long time but it was very poor quality & lacked any professionalism that this DVD brings.

To be honest, if a DVD can give me goose-bumps of excitement & anticipation within the first minute what more need I add?

Even before Elvis majestically appears, walking 'on-stage' as if he has never left us, there is the thrill of the Concert Hall darkness & the Black Limousine slowly crawling through the crowd towards the stage.
OK, so I admit that I was at this very concert, but with the impressive Surround-Sound (a real key aspect of this DVD) and clever editing, the producers have created a fabulous atmosphere.

It is all so cleverly edited, with Elvis glancing over to look at the musicians nowadays. There is very clever use of Glen D Hardin at the piano looking down as he follows Elvis' very performance on his TV monitor - and you'd swear that Elvis really was there.

It's like a magician's sleight-of-hand in keeping the suspension of disbelief. And it does work very well, mixing cameras in the crowd with the interaction on stage along with the genuine footage of Elvis.

Of course I do have a few grumbles. There are Band interruptions between the songs when then look back & talk about the "surrealness" of the Concert experience - while at the same time actually destroying that moment of surrealness for the viewer!
And I can't tell you HOW ANNOYING it is when the band interrupts the songs themselves. Unbelievably, and for no reason, they butt in to the middle of 'Are You Lonesome Tonight' (Yes, the TTWII unreleased sit-down version!), 'Johnny B. Goode', hell, even 'Suspicious Minds'!

But, while hardly forgivable, I will overlook these aberrations since pacing of the DVD/Concert is fabulous and the interaction between Elvis and the Band is fantastic. It is 90 minutes of heaven with Elvis pumping out all your favourite songs.

If you’ve seen ‘Elvis In Concert’ then you know all the tracks. However there are exciting highlights are the new addition of the astounding Gospel numbers, 'How Great Thou Art' combined with 'If I Can Dream' that feature The Jordanaires plus Millie Kirkham, The Imperials, The Stamps & The Sweet Inspirations. It is an absolute stunner.
And let's not forget the pure emotion of 'American Trilogy' being performed right there in Memphis.


The entire band looks like they are having great fun, although you know that they must be playing for their lives. They aren’t that young any more & Elvis isn't going to slow down!
James Burton glows in his fabulous red waistcoat, Glen Hardin has a wonderful smile, Ronnie Tutt and Jerry Scheff are as solid as ever, while Myrna Smith looks the same age as she did in the original 'Aloha.'
And look at those Sweet Inspirations get up and dance!



Unfortunately EPE do not own the rights to 'That's The Way It Is' so there is a noticeable drop in vision quality (a sort of haziness) when those images are used. You cannot expect the TTWII Special Edition DVD quality. However having watched it several times you do become lost in the moment and it's easy to ignore. Hell, when they are pumping out 'Steamroller' and 'Polk Salad' in thumping surround-sound you feel that you are there!


And what a glorious vocal Elvis produces on 'Bridge Over Troubled Water’. As Ronnie Tutt explains, in the Bonus Segment, with Elvis' original vocal isolated and using all the new audio equipment they can achieve more nowadays, with a greater dynamic sound, than when it was first performed. (Remember that in 1969 Elvis & the Band had to use The Internationals built-in PA speakers for amplification!)

The 30 minute Bonus Segment is also a worthy addition. It features The Imperials Joe Mosheo, Joe Guercio, Ronnie Tutt and Gordon Stoker all reminiscing about what it was like working with Elvis originally and their take on this new concert experience.
Joe Guercio notes (as we expected) that The Las Vegas Dinner Shows were "A 'yawning concert' with people eating steak and clinking glasses. The Midnight Shows were much more more focussed."
Ronnie Tutt explains more about how they produced the new show, as well as some nice asides about Elvis' Karate training. There is also a great moment from Gordon Stoker when he remarks, "We look good for old people!"
