This special Collector's Edition offers a detailed chronicle of Elvis' career between January and April 1972. The set features 2 books: From Las Vegas to Buffalo and The April Tour and four CD's, plus a limited edition 33rpm Extended Play vinyl record.

From Las Vegas to Buffalo contains 120 pages, featuring Elvis' Las Vegas shows from January 26 through February 23 1972, a comprehensive record of all the recording sessions and rehearsals from March 27 until the final stage rehearsal at the Statler Hotel, Buffalo on April 5. Filming logs from the MGM movie Elvis On Tour are also documented.

The April Tour contains 384 pages, illustrated throughout with several hundred photographs, many of which are previously unpublished. Newspaper articles and filming documentation are also included to form a comprehensive record of Elvis' 1972 April Tour and the making of the documentary Elvis On Tour.

Four audio CDs: Live In Las Vegas - Recorded at the Hilton Hotel International, Las Vegas, February 1972. Includes seven unreleased performances released exclusively with this set.

Newly mixed by Matt Ross-Spang, Studio Rehearsals - Recorded at RCA Studios, Hollywood, March 30-31, 1972. First released on the Sony/RCA Legacy vinyl release Elvis Presley Burning Love - The RCA Rehearsals, and available exclusively on Compact Disc with this set.

Mixed by Matt Ross-Spang, The April Tour - Recorded during Elvis' April 1972 Tour. This compilation was first released on the Sony/RCA Legacy Vinyl release Elvis Live 1972 is available exclusively on Compact Disc with this set.

Mixed by Matt Ross-Spang The Stage Rehearsal - Recorded at the Statler Hilton Hotel, Buffalo, NY, the rehearsal recording is released officially for the first time exclusively with this set.

'Never Been To Spain' (CD1, track 4) is incorrectly listed as being from the February 16 midnight show. The released live master of 'Never Been To Spain' actually comes from the February 16 midnight show, but on here we get the unreleased "Alternate Live Master", from the February 17 dinner show.

Other errors in the track listing are: 'Hound Dog' (CD1, track 10) is incorrectly listed as being from the February 14 midnight show, and 'Little Sister / Get Back' (CD1, track 11), which is incorrectly listed as being from the February 15 midnight show.

The initial release of this set came with a defective CD2 - no music can be heard after 'C.C. Rider' (track 6), but this was rectified by a replacement disc before it was shipped to dealers.
