Elvis Studio Sessions ’56 The Complete Recordings – MRS

Udgivelsen hylder Elvis Presleys første optagelser hos RCA i 1956. Den 172 siders bog fokuserer på hver af Elvis’ studiooptagelser under hans første år som nationalstjerne – fra den første i januar, der blev afholdt i Nashville, derefter senere i New York inden han sluttede sin sidste session i året i Hollywood i september.
Den komplette og omfattende tekst suppleres med sjældne og tidligere usete fotografier og dokumenter.

3CD’erne indeholder de komplette arkiv Masters og Sessionstudieoptagelse af Elvis Presley fra 1956 samt bonusinterviews. Alle 90 tracks er remastered og restaueret til deres originale lydkvalitet. Også for allerførste gang på CD er den komplette “The Truth About Me” fra en original US 45rpm flexi-disch. Selvom dette er blevet påberåbt af FTD og andre tidligere officielle udgivelser, havde de alle en manglende sætning, som var på den originale disk. Inkluderet er også alle uddrag fra dette interview.
