STANDING

 CD TITLE STANDING ROOM ONLY(2 CD + 2 LP VERSION)
LABEL FTD (BMG)
RELEASE DATE CD: APRIL 2009:
VINYL: MAY 2009
PRICE $39.95  
COMMENTS (NOTE: There will be a special LIMITED vinyl version of this CD in May).
STANDING ROOM ONLY was the name of an LP that never was issued by RCA in 1972 probably because of the concerts in Madison Square Garden on June the same year. It would have been live and studio recordings from February and March of that year. The album was even advertised on the cover of the "An American Trilogy" single for summer release. This 2 CD recreation will contain Las Vegas masters from February of 1972 and the masters and outtakes from the March 1972 sessions at RCA. The FTD cover artwork is not known yet although the ORIGINAL design was supposed to be the same as the MADISON SQUARE GARDEN LP cover. According to an Ernst Jorgensen's interview with us (WORLDWIDE ELVIS) in February and March of 1998 - "Remember...the STANDING ROOM ONLY album was, in the brief period that it existed, an album of "live" recordings from the April 1972 tour. The intention was to release a "live" album from the four shows that month. That was why STANDING ROOM ONLY was going to be and not what I originally thought - a combination of Las Vegas and studio recordings. And, at this time, there are so many other releases but I don't see why there couldn't be one".
