Re: Rejected tracks # 2

I always liked Elvis' performance of 'When the snow is on the roses', even if it is just one verse. 'Little green apples' would also fitted Elvis like a glove.

So, now we arrived in 1974.

Elvis' 1974 spring tour of the southern states was very succesful and Elvis was in good spirits. One of the highlights, of course, being the famous 'Live On Stage in Memphis' March 20th 1974 concert & album.

In early May Elvis completed a 5 concert California mini ...
