Elvis Presley: Memphis (Box Set)
Found this on Qobuz earlier. Haven't seen it posted anywhere. Available August 9th.

Re: Elvis Presley: Memphis (Box Set)
Strange tracklist but it would be nice to hopefully get the definitive mix of the Memphis 74 show.

Re: Elvis Presley: Memphis (Box Set)
WOW!
They did it. No demos, no informal recordings, no soundboard recordings. It's the real deal.

Re: Elvis Presley: Memphis (Box Set)
Cover is stunning.... I hope all is newly remixed by Matt Ross-Spang.... That would be great for disc's 2, 3 and 4!!
Looks like 'Polk Salad Annie' from Memphis '74 is the first teaser ready for download but can't seem to buy it as of yet...

Re: Elvis Presley: Memphis (Box Set)
Interested to hear the remixed masters and concert.
I wonder how much he managed to improve on the 50s tracks

Re: Elvis Presley: Memphis (Box Set)
I just hope they are the overdubbed masters, but properly remixed.

Surely the case, the main purpose (and reason to buy) behind this release.

Re: Elvis Presley: Memphis (Box Set)
$130 seems a bit high for a 5 disc download set. I hate to think how much a physical copy is if that download price is correct.

Re: Elvis Presley: Memphis (Box Set)
Some high-res downloads can be pricey. The 16/44.1 physical disc set will be a lot cheaper.

Re: Elvis Presley: Memphis (Box Set)
If confirmed I AM IN!!!
After this set all I need is blurays of the quad mixes and I would be done with buying Elvis physical media

Re: Elvis Presley: Memphis (Box Set)
So are you saying that a set of hi res download files will be more expensive ve than a physiacl set which needs to be manufactured (designed, pressed and printed) and then distributed.On Tape 1972 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 13, 2024 8:24 pmSome high-res downloads can be pricey.

Pretty much always has been because the sound quality is much higher.emjel wrote: ↑Thu Jun 13, 2024 9:34 pmSo are you saying that a set of hi res download files will be more expensive ve than a physiacl set which needs to be manufactured (designed, pressed and printed) and then distributed.On Tape 1972 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 13, 2024 8:24 pmSome high-res downloads can be pricey.

Elvis at stax for example is 61 usd on there for Hi-Res files

Re: Elvis Presley: Memphis (Box Set)
A little mixed feelings but hopefully this will be great
Shame that we dont get any take info on any of the studio cuts.....or maybe only masters will be included.
At least some are complete/longer than the standard overdubbed master unless dialogue is included.
But I must admit I really miss some songs like Thinking About You and A Little Bit Of Green ....would easily kick out It Keeps Right On A-Hurtin' and Three Corn Patches if I was in charge LOL

Re: Elvis Presley: Memphis (Box Set)
with regards to anything that is missing, maybe we will get a Deluxe version from FTD containing everything that is missing and even more;

Re: Elvis Presley: Memphis (Box Set)
Seems weird to re-release the Sun material.
I'll be curious what the vinyl element of this might be when RCA gets around to announcing it.

Yes it is a nice enough set but not for me as nothing new.
