Why?! There's nothing we havn't got on them! All you're paying for, once again, is the packaging.

If you download them, you don't even get that !

It's the chance to increase our lad's tally of Top Ten Hits - and [who knows] even give him some more No.1's !

None of these singles made No.1 the first time around............

Much as i would like to support our man, as I did when the last batch of singles came out, nobody over 16 neither knows or cares who is number 1 in the charts anymore these days. They practically don't exist.

Well, publications like The Guinness Book of British Hit Singles & Albums are still paying close attention to what makes No.1 !

Even if 'nobody over 16' is !

To order the UK Elvis' singles one by one, shipped to the U.S.A. by either Amazon.uk or HMV.uk, the cost is about $15 each. To get all 18, the cost is about $270.00! That's a sobering thought!

In my opinion, the reproduction quality on the first set of UK singles was superior to the reproduction quality on the U.S.A. singles. One downer, however, was those stickers on the U.K. singles. I wonder if stickers are planned for the new batch?
