He has contributed liner notes to reissues from a diverse array of artists, among them Nat "King" Cole, Paul Williams, Lesley Gore, Dusty Springfield, B. For The Good Times’ is unfortunately played a little faster than the June MSG version but as Elvis notes at the end, “That's a pretty song”. Having written 3,700 words of general praise above - and I have truly enjoyed listening to each concert multiple times - this list below is the simplest way that I can now explain my disappointment.

The film crew led by directors Pierre Adidge and Robert Abel (Joe Cocker's Mad Dogs and Englishmen) captured four shows in Hampton, Virginia; Richmond, Virginia; Greensboro, North Carolina; and San Antonio, Texas.

Elvis On Tour is a 6 CD and 1 Blu-ray box set comprised of the audio from four of the shows (and two rehearsals) that were part of Elvis’ 1972 North American tour. The project, originally titled Standing Room Only, was planned to be released with its respective soundtrack album. That concert includes perhaps the best and most energetic performance of Jailhouse Rock since the ´68 Comeback Special, and »officially» nothing is said to have been recorded or filmed at that concert. Quite a few songs are heard only at rehearsals including "Separate Ways" (which would be released as a single in October 1972), the beautiful "Always on My Mind," "Johnny B. Schilling convinced Presley to allow the filmmakers to interview him at the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studios.The early versions of Elvis and The Stamps harmonising a Capella on ‘For The Good Times’ are delightful and the open audio mix stunning. Box set with 2 card fold-outs (8 panel and 6 panel) containing the CDs in card slots with the Blu-ray in it's own card sleeve, together with a 32-page booklet featuring liner notes, memorabilia and photos. Goode" with "Don't Be Cruel," was released to DVD and Blu-ray and is included on Legacy's upcoming box set.
