Ernst Jorgensen's SUN Project Updates
The final manuscript for FTD's Sun box set is nearly complete and contains 58 chapters. The set will contain three CDs. The first will be The Masters, the second The Outtakes and then the third with everything else they could get hold of.
The first six chapters of the book are the 6 months of 1954 and followed by next 52 week by week chapters running through 1955. The texts consists basically of hundreds of quotes and interviews, facts and people's stories. A lot of dates and figures will be corrected and about two hundred new images will be featured in the book.
The set will not contain songs like Uncle Penn, Tennessee Saturday Night or Rock Around The Clock (That Elvis is rumoured to have performed) but it does have a recording of That's All Right from Meridian 1955, remastered radio recordings like Fool, Fool, Fool plus a handful of other pieces that people have never heard before. Thanks to Kevan Budd it is going to sound better than ever.
Ernst Jorgensen is pretty sure the Follow That Dream label will release it this year, but whether it is May, August, or October/November he still doesn't know.

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.
