MRS presents 'Tupelo Welcomes Elvis Presley Home' as a special Collectors Edition CD/Book which features Elvis' two historic concerts from 26th September 1956. 







In September 1956 Elvis was at his rock'n'roll peak and invigorated by the recent media excitement over his TV appearances.

Elvis was already the major youth-driving force with 'Heartbreak Hotel', 'I Want You, I Need You, I Love You', 'Hound Dog/Don't Be Cruel' all hitting Number 1 and 'Love Me Tender' about to do the same with a million pre-orders.

('Love Me Tender', although already pre-viewed for his adoring fans on the Ed Sullivan Show, would only be released two days after these historic 1956 concerts.) 

The Evening Concert (where unfortunately the start of the show is missed) is the real deal for having a much clearer audio quality, as well as being a little wilder show. Plus the addition of the fabulous song 'Baby, Let's Play House.' The band is much clearer here, nice guitar work from Scotty Moore, and the screams less annoying. Elvis also adds a rockin' 'Blue Suede Shoes' to the setlist with the comment that the song is "getting kinda' old now."

The Afternoon Show while not as listenable still captures the excitement of the day as well as the "Presentation of the City Key" to Elvis plus a fabulous 'I Want You, I Need You, I Love You' as well as 'Ready Teddy'. Elvis is in fine humour, joking about his success and teasing the audience. He comments about the sensational 'I Was The One' "It's plum pitiful the way we do it."

Some would compare Elvis to God, i mean... he is good, but he's no Elvis
