The world of Elvis discography

FROM MEMPHIS TO VEGAS / FROM VEGAS TO MEMPHIS



Info: The LP FROM MEMPHIS TO VEGAS / FROM VEGAS TO MEMPHIS proved to be something new twice. It was Elvis' first double album and for the first time Elvis could be heard live. Also, two of four bonus photos were included with the LP. 300,000 copies sold earned Elvis a gold record in December 1969. Although FROM MEMPHIS TO VEGAS / FROM VEGAS TO MEMPHIS was separated as two separate albums in 1970, the LP was still re-released as a double LP.

Info: Die LP FROM MEMPHIS TO VEGAS / FROM VEGAS TO MEMPHIS erwies sich gleich zweimal als etwas Neues. Es war Elvis' erstes Doppelalbum und zum ersten Mal war Elvis live zu hören. Außerdem wurden der LP zwei von vier Bonusfotos beigelegt. 300.000 verkaufte Exemplare brachten Elvis im Dezember 1969 eine goldene Schallplatte ein. Obwohl FROM MEMPHIS TO VEGAS / FROM VEGAS TO MEMPHIS 1970 als zwei separate Alben getrennt wurde, wurde die LP trotzdem als Doppel-LP wiederveröffentlicht.
