Wasn't the Twelfth Of Never one of the rumoured 6 songs Elvis asked Charlie to find the lyrics and chord changes for the tour that never happened in August 1977?


Yes, but its unlikely that the August 1977 tour would have been any different to the previous ones. Therefore, any new additions to ...

I think if we are a few years further in time no one is gonna see what is real and what is AI
And AI is a standard unfortunately.
Don't know if we can see this as a good thing.


It could be used for worthy causes such as creating new stereo mixes from mono sources or multitracks mixes from 4 ...

I always thought that everyone knew about the Record Covers album until I recently saw David talking about it on his Elvis Presley In Japan YouTube channel. Basically it’s the Portrait In Music album with a big book attached. It contains the full size artwork to all of Elvis’ albums right up to ...

It looks like the soundboards are still reasonably popular amongst certain sections of the fan base, but how many they have left is anybody's guess.

The vinyl reissues appear popular at the moment, but I would agree with FanFrom'61 that this is likely to be short lived.

I'm sure we will get the ...

In the song “I'll Hold You in My Heart” from the album From Elvis In Memphis, you can hear someone speaking in the first few seconds of the song, someone even says “Okay”....


Yes indeed. @rockinrebel mentioned this a few posts back. In fact, the master is preceded by two false starts on the ...

The laughter at the end of If You Talk In Your Sleep, which funnily enough doesn't feature on every version of the master.

The false starts at the beginning of I'll Hold You In My Heart. It's hard to imagine what the song would sound like with a clean intro after all these years...


I kinda ...

Exactly...

that is why it annoyed me the gospel collection did not have the christmas songs, as these are also in that genre

During the Christmas holidays, I've had some more time to listen to some of my older vinyls that I've barely listened before. Randomly, I picked an old (1959 maybe?) US pressing of "For LP Fans Only". It is a mono pressing with of course many SUN era tracks. Since it doesn't have any major ...

he only did 2 christmas records

it is odd a release of a 2 disc set has not been done



It has, and there are also numerous compilations that mix tracks from both albums.

As martin018 advised, If Everyday Was Like Christmas is the one to get.


Yes , that's a pretty good one.
But to have ...

I look at it this way. Of course there is a distinct difference between studio and live work, but in August 1969, February 1970 and February 1972 Elvis knew he was being recorded with a view to compiling albums, although with regards to the latter engagement said album didn't materialise.

August ...

Another one I remembered - there's an audible count in before the vocal track starts on Inherit The Wind.

The laughter at the end of If You Talk In Your Sleep, which funnily enough doesn't feature on every version of the master.

I can only assume that Luhrmann will be responsible for remixing, remastering, and eventually releasing the footage of the 'complete' Hampton Roads concert...?

I can envisage it now:

Elvis Live - the complete Hampton Roads '72 concert...featuring the backing of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra ...

Up until recently I would have said that even if Sony own (or have access to) the Indianapolis soundboard, it would still only be suitable for an FTD release.

However, following the mainstream release of substandard rehearsal recordings on the recent Sunset Boulevard set, it's anybody's guess what ...

Re: the new mixes - I knew this would happen, and I understand that the producer's are trying to reach a broader demographic, but I still think its unnecessary.

The concept of the film is to present the Elvis In concert experience, and the footage was shot when Elvis was at the top of his game as ...

There's a soundtrack album on the way...

I notice that a lot of the tracks are labelled "EPiC version" - does this mean they're all EDITED??!!! 😲😲😲😲😲


The soundtrack for the 2022 biopic is a good benchmark for this. We ...
