What Is The Most…..?

Over many years, I suspect that many of us have spent a fortune in collecting Elvis records for our collection.

But what is the most that you have paid for just one release and when? It could be a rare Sun single or a big box set like the Elvis Masters that came out in 2010. And the "when" is ...

Re: FTD World 1999-2025 - 2 Soft Cover Books Coming Out




looks fantastic!! :D


It is...but does this mean FTD is winding down ?? "1999-2025" seems a bit too ominous. :shock: :o


The authors have nothing to do with FTD.


And unless they plan to re-release those other few early vinyls that was mentioned within their recent announcement about ...

I doubt it. There's still a fair bit of material that hasn't been released.


Such as?

Re: FTD World 1999-2025 - 2 Soft Cover Books Coming Out

The books look really great but I wonder "why now?".

Whilst we have no idea when FTD will close their doors, myself like many others suspect that the end of 2027 will be the time that Sony & Ernst call it a day. Why 2027? Well it would kind of tie in with the 50th Anniversary of Elvis’ death and ...

Re: Elvis Music On Vinyl reissues









I’m sure it is a result of lack of sales. The first two sets and individual albums are still available. Yes I believe FTD release are between 1500 and 2000 for their vinyl releases depending on the music content. And with those kind of numbers, I find it quite amusing that the hype ...

Re: review: The Final Curtain


I wasn’t that impressed with this release and thankfully I didn’t buy it—only borrowed it. I also wish the producers
had added stereo sound to the original ’77 special video, as others have done with later releases.


From memory, it came out around 15 years ago so probably did not have the ...

Re: New FTD Vinyl - Good Times Re-Issue




I didn't buy the original, as I've never really collected FTD vinyl. I did pick a few up out of curiosity, but I always considered them overpriced, and RCA pressings from back in the day have always held more appeal for me. They are the real pieces of history.

That said, I have been tempted ...

Re: Elvis Music On Vinyl reissues



And with those kind of numbers, I find it quite amusing that the hype coming out of FTD for this forthcoming Good Times release is that it is a "Limited Edition" release with 3500 pressed although it’s a cunning way of getting the sales.


...or it`s just business as usual ;)


But if 3500 is ...

Re: Elvis Music On Vinyl reissues


Yesterday the 2nd batch of MOV reissues arrived. One, imo, very positive difference is that the packaging of the 4-LP Aloha From Hawaii is different. The older releases were housed in a triple gatefold LP cover. I always felt is was inconvenient to get the LP's in and out of the sleeve.

Re: New FTD Vinyl - Good Times Re-Issue



Yeah, why not just do a repress to meet demand so every collector who missed out can still buy the album?
Many collectors are now drawn to FTD vinyl due to its limited availability and the high prices sellers charge on eBay, which artificially inflate the records. FTD is deliberately ...

Re: New FTD Vinyl - Good Times Re-Issue





:
Releases like these are the reason I have abandoned collecting FTD vinyls quite some years ago now. This release is just about milking the market.
