The '84 version of this album is the very first cd I bought. I purchased several Elvis cds months before I bought a player.

It's funny to listen to a lot of these mid-80's RCA CD's today, they just all sound very dated and "early digital". The "Always on my mind" CD is a perfect example, whatever they did on this one just sucked the life out of these tracks and made them sound dull. Sure you had more bass and some instruments are more noticeable but it completely destroyed the organic nature of the songs and buried Elvis' vocals in the process. The remixed live tracks on this one (You gave me a mountain, Unchained melody) are just downright horrible.JEFF d wrote:Also if you like Vol 5, and The Memphis Record.... another great CD to get from this era that seems to have been remixed(at least to my ears) is the Always On My Mind CD, I like this CD alot as well... has My Boy sounded any better than on this CD?? Not to me!
