This has nothing to do with the new stax vinyl.....this is the old FTD version!
I just dont get why they are including "Three Corn Patches" on the vinyl version with limited space.
Worst song from the stax sessions........

Re: ELVIS @ STAX 2-LP
I have the 3 FTD releases of the Stax material. I have no need of the SONY mainstream releases on CD or vinyl.

Re: ELVIS @ STAX 2-LP
I don't know about "everyone," but I do know that I am not going to spend money on a release I don't need just to help it achieve a better chart position. I promise not to bitch.

Re: ELVIS @ STAX 2-LP
For me the design lends itself to the bigger vinyl format much better. Are there any photos of the 2-LP vinyl format layout yet? Most probably very similar to the CD version...Would love the vinyls to have the master tape labels like the CDs.

Re: ELVIS @ STAX 2-LP
When you own the "Raised On Rock", "Good Times" and "Promised Land" FTD's, you can re-create the tracklisting easily by yourself. And a better cover, too!
Or we'll ask BrianTCB if we could use his custom-made cover, which is pretty cool:

Re: ELVIS @ STAX 2-LP
I love getting the music on my favorite format, but seeing it today I was very upset how poorly this version was put together. The songs could have fit snugly on one LP. No gatefold, no booklet, no die cut. I would have gladly paid for a 4 LP set of everything with the booklet. I think most hard core vinyl collectors would agree. I haven't seen this skimpy running time since the days of Pickwick or Pair. A real shame.

Re: ELVIS @ STAX 2-LP
It's better for the sound quality not to squeeze as much as possible on an album. So the decision was quite correct.
But I doubt it'll sound better...

Crappy cover but better sound

Is it supposed to be a deluxe version?
Was looking forward to it...

Re: ELVIS @ STAX 2-LP
The artwork is a BIG factor for me here. Although the 3-CD version will suffice for now – if SONY have pulled out all the stops for the vinyl, it would be very nice to have...promiseland wrote:They should have everything like the CD's since they are just digital transfers anyways.a mess of polk salad wrote:For me the design lends itself to the bigger vinyl format much better.

Re: ELVIS @ STAX 2-LP
No need for four songs a side, they are short. It's about running time and an LP can get 22 min a side without loss, and even as much as 25 without much degradation. Yeah I didn't like the days like when the fifties box set crammed all five CD's on six LP's but there is a happy middle. All I ask is that the format is used wisely, here it wasn't at all.
