** Elvis Studio Sessions '56 **

Memphis Recording Service will release a Limited Edition 3CD / book entitled 'Elvis Studio Sessions '56' on June 16th. The set pays tribute to Elvis' first recordings made for the RCA label in 1956. The 172-page book focuses on each of Elvis’ studio recording sessions during his first year of national stardom - from the first one in January, held in Nashville, then later in New York, before finishing his final session of the year in Hollywood in September. The full and comprehensive text is complemented by rare and previously unseen photographs and pieces of documentation.

The 3 CDs contain the complete archival master and session studio recordings of Elvis from 1956, along with bonus interviews. All 90 tracks have been remastered and restored to their original sound quality. Also for the first time on CD is the complete ‘The Truth About Me’ from an original US 45rpm flexi-disc. Although this has been claimed complete by FTD and other past official releases, they all had a missing sentence that was on the original disc. Included also are all the out-takes from this interview. Soon available in pre-order from Essential Elvis UK

Wie oft sollen sich die Fans das Song Material noch kaufen.

Wenn ich d a s schon lese...
"All 90 tracks have been remastered and restored to their original sound quality"
Was ein Bullshit . Sowas kriegen die hin ohne Original Bänder? Respekt!!! Aber es werden sicher genug Fans glauben und ihr Geld dafür ausgeben....

Wie immer halt beim MRS Label alles bekannt u. ein wenig an den Reglern verschlimmbessert.
