Re: Elvis vinyl related discussion




Now that's pretty cool!
I guess the Finnish version was printed (coverwise/design) in lesser quantities, since it's a smaller market.
Either way, it's indeed a great good sounding set!


Agreed,it sounds good! Probably pressed using the same masters as the ones for Germany.

By the way, isn't ...

This bookset looks very interesting, and the price is very decent too. Aprox 40€ for both volumes.

It's the German pressing, but since there are two (from the same year), it's mixed.

Re: Elvis vinyl related discussion

That's a great collection of original US pressings Alexander.
The very first one, presented by Singer, is awesome, the rest too.
I've learned again new things from you, thank you!
It's a very short album wich i also have a soft spot for.
The French cd version from the 90's i guess, is in sound ...

Re: The "Laurel" bootlegs

The Laurel label (and all the other labels Ger Riiff 'invented' for his products) where a true labor of love and dediction.
My favorite from that area must be "Standing room only", soundwise still a hard to beat vinyl!

I cant wait until they release 'Key Lime green', 'Pineapple yellow' or 'Pink lemonade...pink' vinyl.

To my own surprise last month I found myself buying that Graceland edition ...

Re: Elvis vinyl related discussion

I have all the ones you show too Alexander, always a soft spot for them.
Qualitywise it's indeed a hit and miss sometimes, but in a way they served the purpose of adding more to the collection on a rather low price.
The artwork (sometimes mirorrred) was original too.

Re: Elvis vinyl related discussion

Not only Bob Jones was great with his work at the UK RCA plant, but from around that same timeframe -1981- this album came out.
It was cut by the British Jack Adams (his initials JA are in the dead wax), and also this one has great sound.
From memory he also did "Elvis sings Leiber and Stoller" wich ...

I've got the alternate Elvis Today double album, pretty good sound here too.
The live bonus songs from Vegas '75 sound very good here too, better then it's FTD or Fort Baxter cd counterpart (Wouldn't mind the full concert -still a favorite of mine- on vinyl too)

Wtf... so,in between her nonsense chit chat talk (lots of words but not really saying anything), she states that Vernon (and therefore she also) believes Ginger killed Elvis?
And that the people "in the know" are passed away now? Dick Grob, Charlie Hodge, Joe Esposito, who-ever?
And after all these ...
