Hurrah!

So, Sony decide to release this material at retail level some three years after there was a huge amount of publicity in music magazines, blogs, newspapers, and tv about the sixtieth anniversary of Elvis's first recording session.

Better late than never.

..and your saga continues

It'll be very interesting to see the format and price of this if it is indeed a re-release of the set from a few years back.

On the contrary. It would have been common sense to release such a set when they had free publicity for it. Sometimes you have to think that Sony really DON'T WANT Elvis to have a revival, as they seem to go out of their way to screw things up for him. Yes, I am pleased it is coming out now, but it IS three years too late, and the public interest isn't going to be what it was in 2014. But hey, they released the Ultimate Party Album then instead, so who cares, right?

Says it is a SONY Legacy release - and Imported: so is this going to be an US or UK production ?

[Josee]

I guess it will be the same as the FTD release. As I own the FTD box, I will only buy this Legacy release if it includes the live version of IFTRTF.

C´mon Roustabout is nice!

no problem with Roustabout...but would have preferred a different love interest for Elvis...that connection just isn't there

[Stvimpe]

Thanks, Sweet Angeline, that's something to look forward to.

[jerry-walker]

Hi Mike Windgren,
I'm also waiting for the Roustabout outtakes!!

Hi there!! .

Hi Mike Windgren,
I'm also waiting for the Roustabout outtakes!!

Ernst Jorgensen is very stubborn on not releasing it anytime soon but the coming Elvis week in Memphis, I´ll try to convince him at the "Elvis 101" & "Conversations on Elvis: In the Studio"! . Bye for now .

[Domino]

I think this could be good.

[Mister Moon]

I don't want to bore anybody here, as I've mentioned the matter more than once, but this 2015 topic comes to mind :

Would you buy a user-friendly edition of “A Boy From Tupelo" ?

Despite your wishful thinking, it is inevitable that the 40th anniversary of Elvis' passing is going to draw plenty of "free publicity" and "public interest." I know you would rather Elvis' passing not be commemorated at all, but the fact of the matter is that it will.

Sony and EPE know this and it's a smart strategy to deflect at least some measure of attention away from his end-of-life to the groundbreaking music made at Sun. "A Boy From Tupelo" never got in front of the general public so for all intents and purposes the last major "Sun" release was 13 years ago, and considering the gracious critical response that "Elvis at Stax" and "Way Down in the Jungle Room" received, a slimmed down, retail version of "A Boy From Tupelo" should be a home run.

Where did I say I didn't want it commemorated? I have said in the past that Elvis week should be "celebrated" around his birth not his death, but very little beyond that. However, I very much doubt that Elvis's 40th anniversary will draw as many column inches as the anniversary of the Sun recording in 2014 - that featured Tv documentaries, radio documentaries, and numerous magazine and newspaper articles. What's more, it was an anniversary that was about the music of Elvis, specifically the remarkable Sun recordings, and not his sad death. It would have been the right time to release this. Yes, I'm happy it's finally coming out, but that doesn't detract from the lost opportunity of three years ago.

I wonder if this will undercut the value of A Boy from Tupelo box. Given the size of the book, I would think not. Thoughts?

Which copy? I bought a second copy back in 2012 which remains unopened to this day. I did this just in case something ever happened to first set. I must be a crazed Elvis fan.

So would this be the same as the FTD ? It looks like the same set.
