To review Johns "historical record" is not that easy. Alot of threads where he has been proven wrong has been deleted or corrected later on...proof exist. That being said, not denying he has a certain degree of knowledge when in comes to music.
Regarding a WTMW release...I would probably not buy it, but I don´t mind if they choose to release it. It´s only music...no big deal.
Lisa Marie owned 100% of EPE uptil 2005. After that, and still does, 15%. EPE owns EIC. It´s a business. Just as FTD/Sony.
Point being, if you think it´s not ok to "advocate censorship" when it comes to FTD/Sony, same rules for EPE. You can´t pick and choose. Anything else is hypocrisy.
As I have said earlier, I don´t care if they release it or not...
As to ownership, i dont know who owns it but if its release was not legally restricted, i cant imagine EPE wouldnt grab for the money. You dont sell rubber ducks if you are interested in legacy.

Re: Welcome To My World lp on FTD?.
We had the Return of the Rocker. Now we have the Return of the Pedantic. As you well know the point is the rightsholder be that Lisa or EPE can do as they pls with the Intellectual Property they own. My understanding is that it has not been released because of Lisa's desires. As i have not asked her i cannot confirm this as fact.

Calm down.
It was you that, in another thread, said it was not censorship not to release EIC, but for Sony not to release a certain outtake is. It has nothing to do with your opinion to release it or not.

Re: Welcome To My World lp on FTD?.
How about FTD make it a Classic Album release of 2 albums on one release? 'Welcome To My World' on disc 1 coupled with the unreleased June 1977 album 'Greatest Hits Vol.1' on disc 2? That would give Ernst the chance to add some nice bonustracks on both discs.

Well, considering that For LP Fans Only is getting a classic album treatment with the unreleased material being around ten minutes of what are likely to be deafeningly distorted home recordings, it kind of puts a Welcome to my World FTD in perspective.

I always get those two albums mixed up! I'm not arguing about the Is It So Strange session being on it - although, to my knowledge, it's all been released before.

Re: Welcome To My World lp on FTD?.
Correct. It's all pretty much out there, but not officially. Unfortunately, what is yet to be heard on RCA or FTD are a series of false starts. Maybe we'll get the complete undubbed master, too. In any case, to have the entire thing in one place, in superb audio from the FTD team, cannot be discounted in any way. It's one of Presley's finest ballads.Tony C wrote:With regard to the Is It So Strange session, a considerable amount of it is unreleased.poormadpeter2 wrote:I always get those two albums mixed up!

The take 2-6 false starts aren't listed on my Stereo 57, but I haven't played it for a while. Either way, all full takes are released on there, Flashback, TT&F & Close Up. So, if takes 2-6 haven't been released before, that amounts to the grand total of around 90 seconds of unreleased material.

Re: Welcome To My World lp on FTD?.
The devil is in the details. The early takes are not listed on your RCA disc because they aren't there. They appear on an import CD, issued in 1995, reissued in 1998. Unofficial release, exactly as I note above. Also all false starts, as I wrote.poormadpeter2 wrote:Not according to Keith's website.Tony C wrote:With regard to the Is It So Strange session, a considerable amount of it is unreleased.

Re: Welcome To My World lp on FTD?.
I got the info from Keith's website, you obviously read things differently to me. I'm sorry Elvis never completed those five unreleased (Stereo '57 was a bootleg) takes but that is beyond our control. Perhaps you do not think that the release of around ninety seconds of material from a fifties session is important, but I do.poormadpeter2 wrote:Not according to Keith's website.Tony C wrote:With regard to the Is It So Strange session, a considerable amount of it is unreleased.poormadpeter2 wrote:I always get those two albums mixed up!

Re: Welcome To My World lp on FTD?.
Yes, i did misread it. I just assumed he was referring to Essential Elvis 2. Considering most of those takes only last 10-20 seconds, you're not going to hear much of Elvis on them I doubt. The problem here is that the material is being spread so thinly. Was it necessary to create a £20 product in order to release 90 seconds of material from a fifties session? I would suggest not. However, considering many here have been asking for the audio from the Boy from Tupelo book to be reissued, it seems odd than a Classic Album release of an LP containing five Sun tracks features no alternate/live versions from any of them.Tony C wrote:I got the info from Keith's website, you obviously read things differently to me.

It probably helps knowing official and unofficial releases of 1957 material, and paying closer attention to reference websites.Tony C wrote:I got the info from Keith's website, you obviously read things differently to me.

You can see on the session page for "Is It So Strange" a listing called Essential Elvis Volume 2. The full title is Stereo '57: Essential Elvis Volume 2. Keith avoided confusion with the import by listing the RCA release that way.
I agree that anything fresh from the 1950s sessions is important. Such recordings are now like finding hen's teeth, and to dismiss them in any fashion does not sound like the thought process of a deep fan. Comments or bits of singing on the false starts may contain insight into Presley's creative process, and for the serious collector that prospect is exciting. He was 22, he was on top of the world.
In addition, we will hear "Is Is So Strange" from the binaural stereo safety master reel. That should be a real treat on headphones.
