Bug or Pilot error?. When slicer with between date ranges work, but use list causes disappearance.

Hi

This has really been a pain and I can't figure it out.

When using a filter slicer with between date ranges everything is fine, but use list filters causes my graph to disappear.

 

Background:

I am using the following dax for two date ranges from a table to compare:

PrevValue =
CALCULATE(
sum('SP_chart'[Value]),
ALL('Date'[Date]),
USERELATIONSHIP('Date'[Date],'PrevDate'[Date]))
 
my model looks liket this:

If I use the slicer date range, my graphs work fine.

it shows the previous period vs current period just like it should:

However, if I use the List slider, my previous period graph totally disappears:

I am using the same dates from the 'previous Date' table, and I am using the same 'date' from the date table, just basically switching from the "between" slicer to the "list" slicer.

I put a two test date table (in the middle) and the dates are definately filtered in correctly.

 
Can anyone help figure out this phenonomon? 
 
Thanks,
Mike

Using your Dax code this comparison method works much better!
