I have all three and they are lovely releases. Fully agreed, other Divisions of BMG should take note. whistling.gif

Fantastic sets.....I have the Pomus/Shuman set, but the other two look just as good. Hope to pick them up someday as well ! king.gif

They are so well put together and comprehensive.....Outstanding Releases, All !!

great releases with demo versions by the writers of some tracks;
however hard to find because it were limited editions when released.

Only own cdr copies ... but they are superb sets for sure .... i remember getting a LEIBER + STOLLER vinyl years ago, loved that too.

Posted by: colonel snow Feb 14 2008, 03:47 PM

the LP Elvis sings Leiber & Stoller was mono; the CD version with some extra tracks was stereo.

the LP I was referring to was with the picture that Elvis reads a music sheet in company with Leiber and Stoller (around 1957).
this was a RCA International release (PL 89099) in nov. 1983. later on the Cd was released.

Could have bought these a couple of years ago. Still wondering if I made a mistake not to buy them (they were quite expensive). Seems like I did made a mistake ... oh well, not the first and certainly not the last either LSHIC.gif

I HAVE THESE THREE RELEASES AND RETURN TO THEM TIME AFTER TIME,ESPECIALLY ON THE THE TEPPER AND BENNET RELEASE THE SOUND ON SOME OF THE TRACKS IS SUPERB,ON KISMET IT SOUNDS LIKE HE IS IN THE ROOM,TYPICAL ELVIS WHERE HIS OUTSTANDING VOICE COULD LIFT EVEN THE MOST MEDIOCRE SONG.
