In 1970 werden de Elvis fans verblijd met de release van twee culturele mijlpalen: één een album, de andere een concert/documentaire, beiden getiteld ‘Elvis: That’s The Way It Is’. Sindsdien zouden de liefhebbers niets liever zien dan de release van een box met zowel de film als het album.
Het heeft even geduurd, vanaf dinsdag 5 augustus brengt Legacy Recordings, onderdeel van of Sony Music Entertainment, ‘That’s The Way It Is’ (Deluxe Edition). Voor het eerst verkrijgbaar in één pakket bevat ‘That’s The Way It Is’ (Deluxe Edition) het album, de documentaire en zes! volledige concertregistraties met opnames van Presley’s “Electrifying Summer of ’70 Las Vegas Season”, zeldzame rehearsals, de uit 1970 daterende Theatrical Edit en ‘Elvis: That’s The Way It Is’ (2001), een 80-pagina’s tellend boekwerk vol met zeldzame foto’s, memorabilia en opname data.
