Elvis - Aloha from Hawaii (Deluxe Edition DVD)

Amazon.com essential video

Far superior to any previous home-video version, the huge deluxe edition of Elvis: Aloha from Hawaii captures over four hours of footage from the King's historic televised concert from January 1973. The main concert is presented in its entirety for the first time since its original worldwide satellite telecast, and reedited to remove the now-dated split-screen "montage" look. But that's not all--as a prelude to the concert, the first disc includes 17 uncut minutes of the "Elvis arrives" footage (only 2 minutes of which appears in the concert film) followed by the complete rehearsal concert that took place two days before the telecast. This rehearsal, which was released separately on video as The Alternate Aloha Concert, is rougher than the official show, but more relaxed and often more satisfying musically.

Leading off disc 2 is footage of five songs ("Blue Hawaii," "Ku-U-I-Po," "No More," "Hawaiian Wedding Song," and "Early Morning Rain"), including multiple takes, recorded after the performance, four of which ("No More" was the exception) were incorporated into the American television special that was shown a few months after the live telecast. Those four songs are not included in the uncut version of the concert on disc 1, but the original version of the American television special is also on disc 2 so you can watch the concert the way you've always watched it for the sake of nostalgia, or you can compare it to all the other pieces you've seen and decide which you like better. Either way, Elvis: Aloha from Hawaii is an embarrassment of riches that's rivaled only by its companion release, the three-disc deluxe edition of Elvis's '68 Comeback Special. --David Horiuchi

The best Elvis performance. Get leid!.......2007-09-16

The performance is classic with some of the best rockin roll songs. Iconic Elvis. He even busts out the karate moves. My favorite song is Hunka-hunka Burnin Love.

Elvis in Hawaii is great...............2007-09-14

With the 30 year anniversary of Elvis' death recently, I fell back in love with Elvis's music. The Hawaii concert is my favorite. I played in a band in the seventies and performed many of the songs that are on this DVD. It brings back many fond memories. I enjoy Elvis' voice in his later years than earlier. He had an unbelievable voice that has not been matched before or since. A voice rangeing 3 octives is extraordinary. He may have made it shaking and dancing in the 50's but his voice on this DVD in the 70's was much better. He had a great band. You will not regret buying this DVD. I miss him more now than I did 30 years ago.

Elvis was the real deal.......2007-08-24

As a certified 100% Percent Elvis Fan and Graceland visitor I can say with out a doubt. When you see a concert like this I can say ELVIS IS NOT DEAD!! He lives in our hearts. He's the man.

One Of The Most Important Moment of The Music.......2007-08-10

A great show to celebrate the music and the person of a man who bring his own image and the incomparable voice to another degree on the world music... And still hard to believe that Elvis Presley never went to others countries...

About this version, what can I say? It's a really great stuff to collect! On the first disc you will find two shows that happened on Hawaii plus, a short video when Elvis arrived at the Island... On the second disc, another version of the main show but with some changes made by the television broadcast.. All this stuff in a pretty package...

Don't think... You have to buy It!

Elvis Aloha From Hawaii.......2007-04-12

It is a complete package (original TV broadcast version, and unedited version of that same show, and the "dress rehearsal" show that preceded it. Take your choice, they are all here. A must for any Elvis fan.

Description

Renowned pianist and keyboardist Chick Corea and vibraphone maestro Gary Burton have collaborated on many occasions, both live and in the studio dating back to the early seventies. This concert from the Montreux Festival in 1997 corresponded with the release of their first album together for many years: "Native Sense". The tracklisting is almost exclusively drawn from this album with the addition of the Corea classic "La Fiesta" as a finale.

This rehearsal for Elvis Presley's historic January 1973 satellite broadcast, Aloha from Hawaii, provides a fascinating contrast to the better-known, often lionized TV concert. While minor technical glitches and a few between-songs remarks betray its run-through status, this performance trumps the broadcast in musical terms, its headliner more focused and vocally confident, his mood more relaxed and carefree alongside the next night's intermittent tensions. For loyal fans, it's a worthwhile companion; for more skeptical viewers, the rehearsal tapes underscore the mounting pressures, signaled the next night, that would soon pull the King inexorably from his throne.

For video release, the program includes most of the pre-concert sequence seen on Aloha from Hawaii before cutting to the rehearsal footage. This is Elvis poised at a turning point, now far from the Memphis truck driver who metamorphosed into rock & roll icon 18 years earlier, sifting Vegas glitz and Hollywood drama into his show. The remarkable Presley stage band (boasting legendary guitarist James Burton) is reliably tight and powerful, and the song list is identical to the telecast, save for bonus tracks subsequently added to that program. --Sam Sutherland

1973-1977.......2002-09-15

In January 1973, Elvis filmed his awesome Aloha From Hawaii TV show. THAT is the video to buy for a great look at Elvis. He plays the same songs as in this show, but he plays better in the real concert. Here, he is tense, boring, unprepared and stiff. He completely forgets "Burning Love," he has mistakes in a lot of his other songs, and he does LESS songs than in the live broadcast.

Customer Reviews:

Superb!.......2004-01-02

Gary Burton is a jazz vibraphonist who has won 5 Grammys, at least one in each of four decades, starting in the 70's. "Gary Burton Live" was filmed in January, 1981, at the Midem Festival, Cannes, France. The DVD is 60 minutes long. The video quality is acceptable, considering that it was recorded more than 20 years ago. The mode is full screen (not widescreen). The cinematography was nicely done and created the feeling of being present at the concert. The sound quality (Dolby Digital 2.0) is very good. There is no talking, it is all music and applause.

The tracks are:

Solo:
1. My Foolish Heart [5:54]

With the Hum Trio:
2. The Night Has A Thousand Eyes [8:48]
3. African Flower [5:35]
4. Bud Powell [9:10]

With the Ahmad Jamal Trio:
5. Bogata [13:45]
6. Autumn Leaves [5:11]
7. One [9:04]
