I was 16 when I wrote this article back in 1992 for The Elvis Beat #1, the first issue of my official Elvis Presley Fan Club newsletter.
Turner Home Entertainment, which owns the rights to MGM’s Elvis: That’s The Way It Is (1970) and Elvis On Tour (1972), plans to release outtakes of both films on video in the near future.
That’s The Way It Is follows Elvis through rehearsals and several performances at the International Hotel in Las Vegas. Although hours and hours of footage were taken for the film, only the original footage from the less than two hour movie has been released yet.
Elvis On Tour follows Elvis on and off stage during an April 1972 tour. Again, many unreleased hours are yet to be seen.
We have no word on the release date of these videos, but The Elvis Beat will keep you informed with the latest information.
