In January 1973, Elvis performed two shows in Hawaii as part of his worldwide satellite TV broadcast. The show on the 12th is now widely known as the "rehearsal show" while the concert two days later on the 14th, was selected to be broadcast. Elvis looked and sounded great, but without the energy seen in "That's The Way It Is" and "Elvis On Tour". This double LP was actually incomplete with some songs omitted from the tracklisting, possibly due to limitation regarding running times. Early copies contained an insert
