3764 BLVD Publishing offers; The complete benefit show for the Arizona Memorial fund plus the radio broadcast from Uncle Tom’s Cabin a few days earlier to promote the Elvis Show.
This historical show is the only one available of the only 3 shows given in the 60’s before Elvis disappeared from the stage for 8 years. Only 3 days later he started filming “Blue Hawaii”.

Note* The Elvis memorial benefit show, kick-started the struggling USS Arizona Memorial building fund. This was inspired by George Chaplin. Attempts to raise money for the memorial had run dry. Chaplin wrote newspaper editors across the country about the problem.
Reading this in Los Angeles, Colonel Parker conceived the idea of a charity concert. Proceeds would go to construction of what would become Hawaii’s No. 1 visitor attraction.

das sieht doch von der aufmachung her tausendmal beser aus als die MRS Version!
Vor allem, daß es eine LP Version gibt, macht's spannend!
