Re: (Small) imperfections on studio masters

In the studio master of Funny How Time Slips Away, you can hear what sounds like metal on metal - possibly one of EP's rings making contact with the microphone handle?

Re: Elvis vinyl related discussion




Does anyone have the VPI pressing Blondes, Brunes Et Rousses?

Thankyou

Re: Ernst and 2027



I guess the Elvis journey from Ernst will come to an end in 2027.We've got fantastic releases from Ernst. But the last ones were , well not the best. The Memphis set had a lot of discussions. What do you think ? Will we get a last huge surprise end when Ernst finishes his work ?


At some point ...

Re: Elvis vinyl mastered by Boppin' Bob Jones

We had a great time, as always, comparing different pressings. I got home and ordered Boppin' Bob's of Roustabout and Golden Records Volume 4 (as well as a back up Tan From Elvis In Memphis that was too good a deal to pass up).

Re: What FTD book/CD combo set would be suitable for future release?

I love the idea of a '68 comeback special book and one covering '69 -'70 would also be fantastic.

I'd quite like one about Fun In Acapulco although, I'll be honest, the FTD books I have are some of the older titles. These more recent monster books are just too expensive when I'm more of a music man.

Re: Elvis vinyl related discussion



Those are some great pressings Alexander, very nice to see!
Have some of the 'tan' versions, but i don't think any are rare. How do they come out soundwise?

At the previous forum there was nice topic about the British albums that where "cut" by Bob Jones/Boppin' Bob.
His work must be of the ...

Re: A review of Peter Guralnick's "The Colonel And The King"

Sounds like I've saved a few quid as I'm unlikely to buy this book.

Normally a Guralnick book on Elvis would be a no-brainer but the Colonel did a good job on him by the sound of it.

Re: About ElvisTheKingsRealm.com

Thanks for doing this chaps.

It's lovely to see so many familiar names have registered already. Honestly, it's given me a warm feeling and it's not the beer.
