01-26-72 O.S. Opening Night '72/ Forever In Concert Vol. 3 (Soundboard Recording) (For the 1st time, E sings My Way, I’ve Never Been To Spain, Until It’s Time For You To Go, and I’ll Remember You. Great Show!)

01-29-72 M.S. Aiming High (GOOD AUDIENCE RECORDING)

02-06-72 D.S. What They Came To See (Good Audience Recording) (My father attended the 2/6/2 D.S. show and attests that this is not the correct show. E does a great American Trilogy and introduces "Gomer Pyle" Jim Neighbors on this show, but this never occured at the show my father attended. Due to the fact that extensive research shows every site and collector I've come across, this is the same info they have, so I'll leave the date as is for conformity purposes only, as no one seems to know the true date of this show.)

02-06-72 M.S. Las Vegas (Very good show. Highlights are Proud Mary, Until It`s Time For You To Go, and One Night.)

02-08-72 M.S. All Up To Elvis (Good Audience Recording)

02-11-72 M.S. Proving It In Vegas (Bad Audience Recording) (incomplete show. Highlights are Little Sister - Get Back, and Help Me Make It Through The Night.)

02-17-72 D.S. The Concert Years Vol. 94 (Good Audience Recording) (Alledgedly, this is actally the Midnight show. phenomenal show, nonetheless. RCA was there on this night and recorded "Big Hunk 'O Love" for the album "The Sound of Your Cry." Highlights include Never Been To Spain, You Gave Me A Mountain, and Bridge Over Troubled Water.)

02-19-72 D.S. Live In Las Vegas (Good Audience Recording)/Elvis In Vegas Vol. 1 (Very Good Audience Recording) (Very good show. Highlights include Never Been To Spain, A Big Hunk O`Love, and American Trilogy.)

02-19-72 M.S. Live In Las Vegas (Very good show. Highlights include Never Been To Spain, Bridge Over Troubled Water, and Suspicious Minds. Elvis also introduces Cher Wills.)

02-21-72 M.S. "Showing Off In Vegas" (Very Good Audiece Recording) This is a never before heard concert from the rarely heard January - February Vegas Engagement, from a 1st Generation audio tape, and is by far the best quality show released for this particular season. Elvis is in a notably great mood this night, and displays a lot of karate at the end of songs and in between.

02-22-72 D.S. Elvis In Vegas (Very Good Audience Recording) (Good Show! Highlights

include You Gave Me A Mountain, Hawaiian Wedding Song , and Elvis introduces Michael Cain.)

02-22-72 M.S. Back At Full Strength (Bad Audience Recording)/ Las Vegas (Good

Audience Recording)/ The Concert Years Vol. 95 (Good Audience Recording) (This is a great show. Highlights are Never Been To Spain, A Big Hunk O`Love, and Help Me Make It Through The Night)

02-23-72 C.S. His Final Bows (Good Audience Recording) (Excellent show full of good humor and great performances. Highlights are Never Been To Spain, Help Me Make It Through The Night, and American Trilogy.)

03-30,31-72 The Hampton Rehersals (On Stage Rehersal For April '72 Tour) (Soundboard Recording)

04-05-72 Live In Buffalo, NY (Good Audience Recording)/ Stampede In Buffalo (Good Audience Recording) (Fantastic Show! Much more livelier and energetic than Hampton Roads. When E comes out on stage, he starts to put on the guitar as usual, but then takes it back off and does the first 2 songs without the guitar, the only time he did that, that I know of. Highlights are I Can`t Stop Loving You, Lawdy Miss Clawdy, and Funny How Time Slips Away.You can see this show on the vcd Rockin’ The Nation Vol. 3)

04-06-72 Red Lion In Detroit (Good Audience Recording) (Great show. Originally this show was going to be recorded by RCA, but they backed out of it. Highlights are I CanŽt Stop Loving You, For The Good Times, and Funny How Time Slips Away.)

04-07-72 Super Hour In Dayton (Good Audience Recording) (Fantastic show. Great versions of How Great Thou Art, For The Good Times, and A Big Hunk O`Love.)

04-09-72 A.S. Electricity Is In The Air (Hampton Roads, VA) (Bad Audience Recording) (Very good show, but not near as good as the evening show. Highlights include Jailhouse Rock, One Night, For The Good Times, and Help Me Make It Through The Night.)

04-09-72 E.S. The Hampton Concert Soundboard Recording)/ Live In Virginia (Soundboard Recording)/ Elvis On Tour / 04-09-72 The Hampton Roads Concert (Soundboard Recording) (Show primarily used in Elvis On Tour. Sings for the only time Are You Lonesome Tonight without joking or laughing. One of the best shows of ’72. This show can be seen in its entirety on the vcd Virginia Loves Elvis.)

04-10-72 Carry Me Back To Old Virginia (Richmond) (Soundboard Recording) (Great show. E sings For The Good Times for the 1st time, & excellent versions of It's Over and American Triology.)

72-04-10 Springtime! Vol. 1 (Soundboard Recording) - includes the '57 Waco tapes.

04-11-72 Elvis Rockin' Roanoke (Bad Audience Recording) (Good, but odd show. Highlights are Turn Around Look At Me (excerpt), Polk Salad Annie, Carry Me Back To Old Virginny (excerpt), For The Good Times, and Release Me.)

04-14-72 E.S. Sweet Carolina/ The Greensboro Show (Best Quality) (Soundboard Recording) (This show is on Elvis On Tour with E in the Dark Blue Suit with the Owl belt. Great, fun show. The only downside is the hundreds of feedback problems. In later years, E would have had a fit over this. My favorite song on this cd is Bridge Over Troubled Waters which can be seen on Elvis On Tour.)

04-14-72 E.S. A Greensboro Revolution! (Soundboard Recording)

04-16-72 A.S. Gimmering In Jacksonville (Bad Audience Recording) (This is a great show. On Elvis On Tour, the scene when he's getting in the limo with the Memphis Mafia is after this show. Highlights are How Great Thou Art, I Can`t Stop Loving You, and For The Good Times.)

04-17-72 The Grand Return To Little Rock/ He Broke My Guitar (Very Good Audience Recording) (Great show. Highlights are Until It`s Time For You To Go, For The Good Times, and I Can`t Stop Loving You.)

04-17-72 E.S. An Unforgettable Night In Little Rock (Good Audience Recording)this cd has given an upgrade to this audience recording.

04-18-72 Welcome In San Antone/ San Antonio Rose (Soundboard Recording) (This is a good show, but it lacks all the fire of Hampton Roads or Buffalo. You can see Burning Love from this show on Elvis On Tour as it was the last filmed show.)

04-19-72 Knocks 'Em Cold In Alburqerque (Bad Audience Recording) (Good, but odd show. E tries to confuse the orchestra, so Elvis sings Love Me Tender to the tune of You Gave Me A Mountain. Other highlights include For The Good Times, The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face, and Funny How Time Slips Away )

06-09-72 Elvis Opens The Garden (New York) (Bad Audience Recording)/ At The Garden (Good Audience Recording) (Jackie Kahane was booed off the stage before Elvis came out, which enraged him. For this, Elvis only gives a 45 minute show, but it's still great nonetheless. Highlights are Love Me Tender, Blue Suede Shoes, and For The Good Times.This show can be seen on the vcd Rockin The Garden.)

06-10-72 E.S. In The Garden Again (Soundboard Recording) (This is a different source tape of this show than the RCA show, but it does not sound nearly as good...Strictly for the completist.)

06-11-72 A.S. The Concert Years Vol. 46 (Good Audience Recording)/ Closing Show At The Garden (Bad Audience Recording)(Very good show. Highlights are Heartbreak Hotel, I`ll Remember You, and For The Good Times.This show can be seen on the vcd Rockin The Garden.)

06-12-72 Live From Fort Wayne Indiana (Good Audience Recording) (In my opinion, the best show of 1972, this is in far better quality than the "Ft. Wayne" cd.)

06-12-72 Live In Ft. Wayne, IN/ Ft. Wayne (better quality) (Good Audience Recording)/ Reconsider Baby (In my opinion, the very best show of ’72. Better than MSG. He does a great Reconsider Baby and also It`s Now Or Never, and The Good Times.)

06-13-72 Good Times With Elvis (Good Audience Recording) (Good show, but has several cuts throughout the performance. Highlights include For The Good Times and I Can`t Stop Loving You.)

06-14-72 E.S. Rockin' Milwaukee (Bad Audience Recording) (The cover is mis-dated as the 16 th for this great show. Highlights include Heartbreak Hotel, For The Good Times, and I Can`t stop Loving You.)

06-15-72 E.S. Second Night In Milwaukee (Poor Audience Recording)
