FTD 188 – The Blue Hawaii Sessions 4-CD

Som en del af sin igangværende SESSIONS-serie er FTD glade for at kunne annoncere udgivelsen af ELVIS PRESLEY: THE BLUE HAWAII SESSIONS.

Dette 4-CD sæt indeholder de komplette soundtrack-sessioner,
nymiksede fra de originale 3-spors sessionsbånd. Bookletten på 24 sider indeholder informative tilbageblik
fra musikere og sangskrivere, sessionsdata, memorabilia og global hitlisteinformation.

Det originale album lå i 20 uger nr. 1 på Billboards TOP POP LPs chart. Nomineret til en Grammy Award i 1961, blev det det 2. mest succesfulde soundtrack-album i 60’erne, kun overgået af West Side
Story!

Bemærk: Noget af musikken er tidligere udgivet i FTD-bogen “The Making of Blue Hawaii”.
