Let me apologise for asking this question as I'm sure it's already been addressed in this long thread.

Exactly what is missing from the Legacy release that is included in the FTD release (apart from the Axton interview)?

Thanks.

A 20 second snippet of dialogue which came prior to the slow version of Blue Moon of Kentucky. It remains available one the 1999 Sunrise release.

Thanks for that - I had hoped that was the case.

I got my Legacy set yesterday I really like this a lot! Even though I have the FTD original version I rarely got it out because it was so huge. This is a great product to have out for the 40th

I don't own Sunrise anymore but I vaguely recall the N word being used but not by Elvis, am I correct?

Yup. The dialogue was first heard on a 1974 bootleg, and Greil Marcus quoted it in his 1975 masterpiece, Mystery Train: Images of America in Rock 'n' Roll Music.

A throwaway comment which would have been quite common around those parts at that time. Times have changed, and I suspect that's why it's been left out. No harm leaving it out imo.

It was excised by Sony at the 11th hour.

I'm glad I have it on Sunrise. But the excellent ABFT isn't any the less by it not being there I think.
How I wish we had more studio chatter from those golden days.. Hmm. Studio chatter.. not to mention the missing songs (/takes a deep calming breath).

Yessss, there are inner sleeves!. Japan take care of this kind of material . Bye for now .

[Andy-M]

Yes, each CD has a soft plastic inner sleeve

I am very happy with all the Japan CDs and packages

...never understood why this level of commitment from Japan (sets the bar so to speak) can`t be applied everywhere else...common sense

The buck stops in the land of the Rising Sun. But elsewhere, it's just all about the buck.

Some are just wiser getting the buck for the long haul.

Got my copy in the mailbox yesterday. I bought it through Amazon: 20€ shipping cost included.

I am very happy with it, quality product all the way through. The sound is just amazing on the first 2 CDs. Disc #3 is a treat too. Fool, Fool, Fool (one of my favorite tracks) sounds great!

The booklet is plain awesome, just wonderful. Incredible pictures and a lot of information. Parker only appears at the end which is great because i can't stand him anymore.

All in all, it is a perfect package, the best way to celebrate the legacy of Elvis.

Did this set chart at all? (Billboard US)

...not that I`m aware of

[jeanno]

I don't know if it charted at all but i'm pretty sure that it is in my Top 3 Elvis releases, next to Ftd "Elvis is back!" and "Essential Elvis volume 4".
