Sell it now, dude. Just to be sure!
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. :)
Woah... You got two!! Now that is dedication. :wink:

So would this be the same as the FTD ? It looks like the same set.
Judging by the images, it looks like a 'lite' version...


Well, Good evenin', don't that sun look good goin' down...

For some reason I didn't get this set when it was released the first time, thinking I was good with Elvis At Sun, Sunrise and even the older Sun Sessions. Since then I changed my mind and have been looking for a copy on Ebay but not willing to pay fantasy prices like 400 Usd and in some cases even higher asking prices. Well hopefully
I get a brand new sealed copy for a nice price in july.

Ah yes.I see .It gives the impression that it's the full book.Looks like the book is more like the one in the TTWII set.Still looks good.

Yes, finally ! Will get it for sure
I hope the tracklist is exactly the same as original version
(no outtakes, live tracks ommited) + crystal clear transfer of "IFTRTF".
It'd be cool if the CDs layout would resemblance old tapes, but great nonetheless.
And maybe... they included some new, unreleased tracks :lol:

I have the original set, but I may get this just due to the fact the original set is so darn heavy and I'm not supposed to lift anything too heavy. It looks really nice!

I guess I'm in it for the outtakes and live stuff in great sound but I will hold onto the Kevan Budd disc for the masters.

The cover looks exactly the same as the FTD box set and it also has 3 discs, so I think that it is just a mainstream release of the FTD set and that IFTRTFH live will not be included. I hope I'm wrong.

S'pose it would be a cheaper to way to do it, rather than remaster one of the whole discs again, just repress 'as is' or at least 'as was'. Or even TISWAS... :mrgreen:
Hope I'm wrong too...

It would be untruthful to release at set in 2017 proclaiming on the cover in big bold letters "The Complete 1953-1955 Recordings" if it isn't actually complete, including recordings found since the 2012 release!
It's not going to be complete in that sense as are there other recordings in very poor quality that weren't included in the BFT set, as far as I'm aware. I very much doubt that I Forgot to Remember to Forget will be included. I hope it is, but I doubt it.

Where did I say I thought the 2012 set was equally truthful? :wink:
My God, does that mean that was a mildly negative comment towards Sony from you?

So much for the exclusivity of the original release then which will no doubt drop in value once this new one hits the shelves. Might be a good time to sell up if you were holding onto it as an investment.

I wonder how much the new one will cost?

I have "SUN Sessions" on vinyl. "The Complete SUN Sessions" on vinyl. The SUN CD and "Elvis At SUN." I'm good.

But it has the SUN version of 'That's All Right', the one that started it all, as it sounded from the start!
Worth a punt for that, in my humble, of course...

Further points to note...
The First CD that has all the Sun/RCA masters clocks in at 1 hour 7 minutes.
The Second CD that has all the Sun/RCA out-takes clocks in at 1 hour 16 minutes.
The third CD that has all the live cuts clocks in at 1 hour 19 minutes.
Friends, don't hold your breath for 'I Forgot To Remember To Forget', I don't reckon this is the one...

If you say it enough times, you'll be right about the something special coming eventually. Wasn't that the trick that another member tried by telling us the book of a Boy from Tupelo was "coming soon" for about seven years. He was right eventually too.
