"Notes: From the release notes:
This deluxe 4 CD set released by Backdraft is the ultimate January/February 1970 engagement package. ‘Rebooked at the International’ features multi-track recordings by RCA including unreleased leftovers that did not make the ‘On Stage’ album. These are the original rough mixes made by Felton Jarvis in early 1970 in preparation for the up-coming ‘On Stage’ album. No repairs, No overdubs!
CD2 features the recordings that finally made the ‘On Stage’ album however, for the first time, is released in its original form before studio overdubs were added. The tracks are unedited, with extra long unedited dialogue in between songs that also were never included on the album. This is the ‘On Stage’ album that was meant to be, no overdubs, unedited and raw on stage directly from multi-track tapes.
CD3 features the left over tracks that never made it to the album. For the first time, it contains many unreleased songs in multi-track form along with some previous material that were recorded from the same shows. This, with all the added unreleased dialogue in between the songs is accompanied with rehearsal tracks from the engagement, making this collection the most complete and compelling ever assembled on this, Elvis’ second coming to the International Hotel.
This box set also includes newly sourced soundboard recordings of the opening and closing shows of the engagement. Though both have been released several times before, none of those previous releases achieved the sonic quality presented here. The Opening show on CD1 is presented for the first time without any of the heavy filters that were present on previous releases as well as the Closing show on CD4, a much better recording, is slightly longer at the end than before. This is the first time that every single audio signal of the original recording has been used for the audio restoration. Backdraft has achieved a much clearer natural sound and a tremendous sonic separation of the instruments and voices. This is not a slight improvement like on other re-releases, this is a new sonic experience!
Many Elvis fans would appreciate the difficulty in obtaining photographs from the January/February 1970 engagement. In fact, fans would agree the enormous rarity of such since only a handful of these have been seen or available. For the first time included in the accompanying 100 page hardback book, are such photographs never before seen in beautiful quality accompanied with extensive liner notes and hard facts.
This highly collectable box set is available now and is only limited to just 1000 copies and is expected to be sold out within days. Expected retail for this collection is around 95 euro’s or 85 pounds.

Concert: CD 1: We already had this stunning show on various releases and on all Can`t Help Falling In Love was incomplete. For the very first time now this show is complete  in the best sound quality available. 
We don´t need more editions, we now have the ultimate one. So lean back and enjoy another fantastic moment in Elvis`career !
CD 4: For the first time in its entirety. One of the best shows our man ever gave. A must have for every collection.  Hear Elvis sing fantastic versions of Kentucky Rain, Let It Be Me, One Night, It`s Now Or Never, Suspicious Minds, and, or.... Marvellous !" (Source: Elvisoncd.com)
