Album Notes
Personnel includes: Elvis Presley (vocals); J.D. Sumner & The Stamps, Kathy Westmoreland & The Sweet Inspirations (background vocals).Compilation producers: Ernst Mikael Jorgensen, Roger Semon.Recorded live at the Honolulu International Center, Honolulu, Hawaii on January 14, 1973.Throughout the late-'60s and early-'70s, Elvis Presley and his manager Colonel Tom Parker staged a series of media events designed to keep Elvis in the spotlight. The NBC comeback television special, Elvis' return to live performance, and a four-show run at Madison Square Garden (with a live album released one week after the final concert) were all publicity coups that focused national attention on the King. Each, however, required that the next event be even larger and more spectacular. This is certainly the thinking that motivated ALOHA FROM HAWAII VIA SATELLITE, a concert broadcast live to the Pacific and (one day later) to Europe (the show did not air in the U.S.until several months later).A reported one billion viewers tuned in, undoubtedly making the ALOHA show the single-most watched concert of all time. ALOHA is a mix of rockers, quiet ballads, and bombastic pop, all performed with full-throttle energy and emotion. This edition of ALOHA includes for the first time several Hawaiian-flavored songs recorded immediately after the concert, to be used on the soundtrack of the U.S. broadcast. Also among the after-hours batch of songs is Elvis' version of Gordon Lightfoot's "Early Morning Rain."

Elvis at his Best

Created: 12/04/10
This was one performance where Elvis gave us his best ever live appearance. He was at the top of his performance at this concert. He looked great, performed marvelous, one of the best back up orchestra's ever, with back up singers like the sweet imspirations, Kathy Westmorland as the high voice and back up by the stamps quartet, with the legendary JD Sumner singing bass.

Elvis Aloha From Hawaii

Created: 12/09/09
I didn't have a 70's concert CD. I have the DVD and it is awesome. I enjoy it more each time I listen. To think this guy sang the demanding songs for almost an hour and a half so effortlessly! There was only 1 Elvis and no one will ever equal his vocal ability. He was in a class all by himself.

Aloha From Hawaii - Elvis Presley

Created: 08/12/09
One of the best combinations of Elvis music that I have ever seen. This is my 2nd copy of this CD .....I wore the first one completely out! May get another for back-up.Covers most every phase of his career and is one of the few that has 'Trilogy' which is one of my favorites.

Great product

Created: 10/01/09
I don't have the DVD yet, so the CD with ALL the original song titles in it is the next best thing. I purchased the CD because I haven't been able to find a DVD with all of the songs included. There isn't a thing I dislike about the CD. Everything on it is excellent. I can almost see the actual performance itself in my mind when I listen to the CD.

always loved live concert recordings

Created: 18/08/08
I always loved live concert recordings. This is especially a good one. It's much older and the voice trails off is portions and the drums sometimes is overpowering. BUT that is what makes live concert recordings special in my opinion. Shut the door, kick back in your recliner, close your eyes, and you are one of thousands enjoying the show!!!!!!!!
