Speaking of White Top monaural LPs, anybody have a copy of "Pot ...

Re: Elvis vinyl related discussion




Just had a chance to read through the whole thread and loving it. The Quad Mix video was very cool.

Just curious, Alexander, what is your take on the Quad 8 mix of Elvis Country?


I know that mix is available on Apple Music but it has never been released previously. Not on 8Track nor on any ...

Re: Elvis Music On Vinyl reissues


These things exist just to make money. They have no intrinsic value and there's nothing artistic about them. Nothing at all. I confess that I do enjoy (and buy) the occassional colored vinyl like the recent "Moody Gold" on FTD, but this? Isn't it obvious?


True in every word. I must say I was ...

Re: Quadrophonic sound

Yes sure, hearing Elvis in quadraphonic for the first time was like rediscovering these masters. I even discussed and ranked the quadraphonic releases in an episode on my YouTube channel.

How do these sound? Probably top notch but great to read your review. I have a small collection post-2000 vinyls (MOV, FTD, MRS). I must say I have seen the MOV adds and have been tempted. But there only one ...

Re: The "Laurel" bootlegs

Thanks, those were the days. Boy those Ger Rijff bootlegs were so beautiful. Back in 1983 I was 11 years old so I never owned these bootlegs and growing older the urgency was gone, but always great to see these.

Re: EPiC - new film - thoughts from the premiere

I must admit I was a bit skeptical, but from what I've seen and heard so far, this film is the best thing that could happen to us Elvis fans. Not only has Baz made a film that demolishes the "Fat Elvis In Vegas" cliché for a wider audience and (rightly) presents Elvis as one of the greatest ...

Now my personal go to pressing is this German Teldec from 1969.

1000014129.jpg

The German catalog is quite a mess actually: in 1969 Flaming Star was released as your 1969 Teldec press as CAS 2304 on the Camden label, yet it was also released (probably) simultaneously as INTS 1012 ...

Re: Elvis vinyl related discussion

Among collectors, Camden records don't usually get the love these budget albums deserve. Flaming Star is undoubtedly in my top 10 most-played Elvis records because it's one of the first records I ever bought (my very first version was on cassette) and contains such a wonderful collection of songs ...

Re: Elvis vinyl related discussion



In 1964 the RCA Hollywood plant pressed its first batch of the Roustabout album in 1964 on the SILVER MONO/ STEREO label. RCA by then had introduced a new label design and Hollywood was fast to correct the error, which makes this Roustabout batch extremely rare .
