I'm tempted....looks good,but looks almost certain like cdr's... Is there anyone who knows more of this? I'll say away from it if it's cdr,if it's real,it's a bargain!!

Looks like a pretty cool set imo, along with some groovy artwork (IMG:http://elvis-tkc.com/forum2/style_emoticons/default/up.gif)

Never heard of it as "release",not even as cdr... It sure would be a great set if it was real,(all those alternates must come from somewhere)but i'm doubting it too much...so,i'll give it a miss....

Yeah, I never knew of this being on cd, just on vinyl. The price being that much it would suck to buy it and then find out it's a cd-r set. I have been down that road on Ebay a couple of different times and it sucks. There's alot of great vinyl sets that should be put onto cd though

the original release was on vinyl; I doubt if it is a real CD set; besides all the tracks are on regular releases to be find.

Thanks Andy, great covers, a superb addition to anyone's collection.
Such a shame that it's no longer available. As for the e-bay rip-off; I would be interested to hear the CD's, especially the "I'm Leavin'" and "Burning Love" tracks. Got a funny feeling that I'm Leavin' is in fact my remixed version. As some of you are aware, on the CD "Elvis Meets Presley ... Again" 2 of my remixes are on there. I'm Leavin' and my film remix of C'mon Everybody. A good collection of tracks, and quite well put together though.

Thanks for the "original" scans Andy,cool item!!
As for these cdr's...if they where cheap,i go for it,but in this case,i'll pass.... Mark,so they used your work on that "Elvis meets Presley" import? Never knew that!! Great to know,but on the other hand,they should ask or at least give credit my friend to you,who did it in the first place... -------------------- |

Yes they used 2 of my remixes.
No credit or notification was given, they were used and the rest is history. It would have been nice to have a little credit, but never mind, I'm sure it's happened to a few people and will continue to happen. I sent 2 of my CD's to a guy who runs the "Elvis Tapes" website, in return I got a bad copy of "Behind Closed Doors" (2cd's). At the time I thought it was an ok-ish swap but he obviously made something out of it. A couple of my so-called early albums have been bootlegged, I just found it histerical when my brother bought the Elvis Meets Presley CD. I told him he didn't have to pay to get my remixes!! pmsl.

Though the one on eBay is a CDR it actually looks better than the real one imho. Whoever made it went through a lot of trouble to make it look like the real thing. For sentimental reasons I'd like to see an official release of this set. I got the LP box when I was very young and I almost played it to death - so much that I replaced it with another set later (and have taken much better care of that). The LP box must have sold a lot in Denmark, because there are sooo many second hand copies available here.
