Elvis Presley - 1970-07-15 - Culver City, CA (SBD)

As Elvis Presley geared up for his August 1970 engagement at the International Hotel in Las Vegas, his manager, Colonel Tom Parker looked for ways to generate even more dollars from that run. His initial concept was a closed circuit broadcast of one of the Vegas shows, but eventually that idea transformed into filming a documentary. Released on November 11, 1970, the movie Elvis: That's the Way It Is, captured the King on stage during 6 concerts in Las Vegas from August 10 to August 13. Additional footage was shot at his performance in Phoenix on September 9, as well as during a host of rehearsals in July leading up to his run in Las Vegas. This soundboard recording captures one of those rehearsals in its entirety, on July 15, 1970, 49 years ago today, in Culver City, CA. Elvis runs through 27 songs during the rehearsal, including 2 Beatles classics, Hey Jude and Yesterday!
