Description

This week, Justin, Bec and Olivia take a look back at the live material originally released as the "From Memphis to Vegas" part of Elvis's 1969 double LP and whether it still holds up as originally released, and ponder why it's been overlooked by comparison to Madison Square Garden, Aloha From Hawaii and even Elvis in Concert! Part 1 this week includes some brief Elvis news, more discussion on Baz Luhrmann's ELVIS, and then a thorough look at Side A of the album, as well as providing some context for the 1969 engagement. Part 2 next week will cover Side B and Songs of the Week. If you enjoy TCBCast, please consider supporting us with a donation at Patreon.com/TCBCast.

"Elvis is history," Carl Perkins once said, "and anytime anyone or anything becomes history, whether it be Pearl Harbor or Elvis, it will never go away. The world will never tire of his songs." TCBCast is an unofficial fan podcast featuring co-hosts Gurdip Ladhar and Justin Gausman, along with regular guest co-hosts Ryan Droste and Bec Wyles, plus an array of Elvis fans and experts setting out to better understand that history, and those songs. Tackling topics from throughout Elvis's lifetime and beyond, TCBCast seeks to offer thoughtful, intelligent, heartfelt and honest discourse on Presley's career, his influences, the people who made his work possible, and the cultural phenomenon surrounding his iconography. TCBCast is not associated with or endorsed by Graceland, Elvis Presley Enterprises, Authentic Brands Group or Sony.
