You could liken her success to that of Elvis’ 67 years ago.

@Walter Hale 4 - Thanks for the Australian info.- I was getting ready to add all of the data below yesterday, but got sidetracked on a debate with a serious anti Priscilla member on the Agent Elvis thread lol.

Maybe he feels he is in more control over comments if people can only watch it on his YouTube channel.

[Walter Hale 4]

At long last !

the one, the only Parlogram Auctions (aka Andrew) has weighed in posted his thoughts regarding the Red and Blue 2023 sets.

His reviews, yes some of which are lengthy, but ALWAYS are worth looking at !


Triumph or Tragedy? The Beatles New Red & Blue Vinyl & CDs Reviewed

[Walter Hale 4]

here's Beatle Brad monologue, he's another Beatles diehard in the youtube world (look at the collectables he's surrounded with) , doesn't think it was worth having Now and Then joined with the rest of the tracks that made up the Red and Blue compilations, I certainly can see his point.

As I said it before they should have also cleaned up 1995's Free as a Bird and Real Love and included those in context.

Just announced over in the U.S. The blue and red 2023 are at #15 and #20 respectively on billboard album chart. Interestingly to note that only the Blue 1967-1970 double LP reached number one in the USA.

Units sold so far in the US equate to just under 40k for the Blue and 34k for the Red. In Japan, the Blue album sold 15k in the first few days and the Red 13k which is similar to the U.K. So both albums will be heading toward the 100k mark each worldwide by the end of the month.

The "Blue" album has always sold slightly better than the "Red" album, even in the U.K. I guess it’s a generation thing where their later creative music is appreciated more than the earlier pop stuff. But both original albums have performed very well with worldwide sales of 14.6 million and 13.3 million respectively, which is pretty impressive for double albums.
