Delay --- G.I. Blues Special Edition 2 LP Vinyl Set

FTD have advised that the 'G.I. Blues Special Edition' 2 LP Vinyl Set will be delayed until after December 7 and WILL NOT ship with the CD releases. The CD releases are Back In Memphis as a 2 CD set in the Classic Album series which dives into the 1969 sessions in Memphis featuring 'Suspicious Minds' as a bonus track and 3000 South Paradise Road in a 2 disc 7" 'Classic Album' format with a 16-page booklet. This release takes a closer look at Elvis' engagement at the Las Vegas Hilton with a soundboard recording in August of 1972. The main disc is from the dinner show on August 12, and the second disc is culled from the rehearsals on August 4th, the date of the opening of the engagement. Both CDs are due for release 'any day now'.
