New ‘Elvis On Tour’ Box Set Slated For December

/by

A new Elvis On Tour box set, celebrating the 50th anniversary of Presley’s monumental 1972 concert trek, is set for release Dec. 2 through RCA/Legacy Recordings. A first taste of the new music–the previously unreleased “Burning Love (Rehearsal 2),” recorded live at RCA Recording Studios in Hollywood in March 1972–is available now. 

The seven-disc box set, available both digitally and physically, includes six audio discs premiering previously unreleased Elvis concert performances and studio rehearsals, as well as the MGM Film, Elvis On Tour, which won Best Documentary Film at the 30th Golden Globes Awards in 1973.

The Elvis On Tour box set includes fascinating behind-the-scenes liner notes by Jerry Schilling, a longtime personal friend and member of Presley’s inner circle. The collection also features an essay by rock historian/musician Warren Zanes, founding member of The Del Fuegos and Professor at New York University.

The Elvis On Tour box set arrives in the wake of the release of Warner Bros. Pictures’ Elvis biopic from filmmaker Baz Luhrmann, starring Austin Butler and Tom Hanks.
