Concert: This was the last concert on tour 27, and the second show in Saginaw in 8 days.

On this recording the end of Early Morning Rain is missing, as well as What'd I Say and Johnny B. Goode.

Elvis obviously wanted to do something a bit different from the earlier show , as he opens with 'That's All Right' instead of 'See See Rider'. He also has a 30 seconds - not so successful - attempt on 'Trouble' (from King Creole) and sings 'Happy Birthday' before launching into the regular setup. However , Elvis ends the show with the very last version of 'Mystery Train / Tiger Man. This specific version is in BMG vaults !
