Re: Elvis vinyl related discussion

[JohanD]

Got this boxset a few years now.
The entries on Discogs are a mess and it looks like the box i have is mixed with others. (wich is not true, i bought it new).
It's the German pressing, but since there are two (from the same year), it's mixed.
My copy has the English 63 pages (small) booklet (and not in German like mentioned) from the first pressing.
It has plain white innersleeves, not the ones with Readers Digest on it, as with the second pressing.
Somebody mentioned in the comments that the songs on the first vinyls are in stereo (that's also mentioned on the labels), but that's not true.
The 50's songs are crispy mono.
The rest sound very good too on all the tracks, maybe due too the Direct metal mastering (DMM).
These are 8 fantastic good sounding albums in a nice box with a pretty cool (tiny, in size, not in pages) booklet.
It may be not that rare, but if you can find this at a decent price, it's well worth the investment.

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 other format. So I did not include it in my video nor did I hear it (have no subscription to Apple Music). So I couldn't tell. What's your opinion?

Thanks for reminding me -- I had forgotten that. I have Apple Music and listened to it but I don't have the setup you need to hear it properly.

I have been working like a dog for the last few weeks and now I have a few minutes to post. Here is one I know you are still on the hunt for which I was very lucky to acquire a few years. The very rare second pressing of the Double Trouble LP on rigid orange along with the "Trouble Double" cover.

Stunning copy indeed and still need that one for my collection. Impossible to find. You are looking for this one? Also very hard to find and don't have a spare copy unfortunately.

Yesterday a box with over 40 records from the US came in with 2 records I hoped to be extremely rare Orange Rigids (1968-1970). And the gamble paid off this time.

I was so suprised that i didnt know i has this original in my collection.

Nice copy. I have been looking for one of those to complete my White Top LP collection. How did you acquire it?

Speaking of White Top monaural LPs, anybody have a copy of "Pot Luck" that they are looking to sell?

Ah just rereading the thread and saw you were looking for the Pot Luck Monaural. My bad. There are quite a few Monaurals I am looking for myself. Do have the His Hand In Mine Monaural though.

Yeah, I collect all the records I buy in the United States and send them in combined shipments to The Netherlands to avoid high shipping rates and duties. I use Paypal on a daily basis and although it is not my favorite payment methode I never had a problem.

Yes, it is the monaural copy of Pot Luck I am looking for. I also have a White Top Monaural copy of it but it is only VG condition, so I'd like to upgrade it. Thanks for sharing your other ones. I have a solid copy of the White Top Stereo version of Pot Luck, too.

Locating White Top copies of Girls, Girls, Girls was a bit of a challenge. But managed to find those.

Which monaurals are you looking for? Thanks for the kind words on Double Trouble -- that was a needle in a haystack.
