MRS: Elvis Presley On Fire in Toledo - 1956

[Jaime1234]

What a great singer he was!!

I just finished listening to it
The audio programmer has gone over the top processing the tape which is a shame.

Amateur hour from the shady grey market label.

You get what you pay for.

I think a radio station aired that recording back in 2017. This might be the original source.

Nope. Also WOWO Radio aired a portion of it in 2019, not 2017. The topic I linked earlier is worth a look, if you care.

I think it's ok to share the beautiful mock-up cover art done by Søren Karstensen (Memphis Mansion) some time ago for a release that never materialized.

The cover shot and the title was my idea (as to a handwritten comment on one snapshot from the show of Elvis leaving the stage).

There was a fuss over what color the jacket actually was.

How do you think the M.R.S. sound compares to the tape you have.?

No, it's just a subjective thing by an individual. You know, a bit like some of the poor mastering/mixing that FTD get on some of their releases that some members complain about. But i guess you get what you pay for.

I think you'll find it was actually May 30 2016 when it was aired, and the link to it is still on my web site.

The SoundCloud link I found, shared and referred to was posted in 2019. It is not on your website.

It's the entire 90th anniversary celebration by WOWO Radio from 2016:

At some point in 2019 WOWO uploaded it there.

So, more theft from MRS. Classy.

WOW - yet more MRS material copied from old RCA / FTD releases, it beggars belief..

You mean this stuff has already been released via Sony and FTD previously !!?? OMG..I must have missed those releases. Can you let me know the release title(s) so I can add them to my collection.

[emjel]

Doubtful they would make a special release just for that. What would be the point if it is already available elsewhere and also on digital platforms etc for people to tap into. and is already in Public Domain.
