Elvis One presents 'The Complete '56 Radio Recorders Sessions' on CD. A lot of these sessions are lost... For this release we wanted a different approach.. The first 13 tracks are the Original Single & Album Masters with the original fade-outs. The same masters can be heard in the Masters & Outtakes section but now slightly longer taken from the master tape. When you compare the ending of the original album master of ‘Long Tall Sally' with the ‘rough ending' master you will notice the difference. The ending of take 18 of ‘Playing For Keeps' and insert take 2 of ‘Too Much' were used for the spliced masters of these songs. We have chosen to release these recordings separately. You can hear all known masters and outtakes from Elvis at Radio Recorders in 1956 on this album.

Elvis Presley Video Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD

Never before have we seen an Elvis Presley concert from the 1950's with sound. Until Now! The DVD Contains recently discovered unreleased film of Elvis performing 6 songs, including Heartbreak Hotel and Don't Be Cruel, live in Tupelo Mississippi 1956. Included we see a live performance of the elusive Long Tall Sally seen here for the first time ever. + Plus Bonus DVD Audio.

This is an excellent release no fan should be without it.

The 'parade' footage is good to see as it puts you in the right context with color and b&w footage. The interviews of Elvis' Parents are well worth hearing too. The afternoon show footage is wonderful and electrifying : Here is Elvis in his prime rocking and rolling in front of 11.000 people. Highly recommended.
