Ist in etwa sowas wie diese vo:


Greetings From Germany - Original Pressing
Title:Greetings From Germany Label:VIK Label Number:CD-1058 Release Date:1998 Recording Type:Home Recordings Location:Bad Nauheim Date:1958 - 1959 Sound:Outstanding considering... ! Track Listing: At The Hop (Piano Solo) - I'll Take You Home Kathleen (Slow Version) - Apron Strings - It's Been So Long Darling - Earth Angel ( Intro) / I Will Be True - There's No Tomorrow - I'll Take You Home Again Kathleen (Slow Version) - Que Sera / Hound Dog - I Asked The Lord - I'll Take You Home Again Kathleen (Fast Version) - Apron Strings - Number Eight On The Jukebox - At The Hop (2 Lines Only) - Que Sera / Hound Dog - Piano Solo - Send Me Some Lovin' - Soldier Boy - Earth Boy - Danny Boy - The Fool - I'm Beginning To Forget You - I Asked The Lord - Mona Lisa - I'm Beginning To Forget You - I Can't Help It If I'm Still In Love With You - Sound Quality Comparison
Notes: Issued in a gorgeous cardboard gatefold - superb picture selection , detailed liner notes, professional looking inlay work on the disc - top quality job !

The material defies rarity - this is a pretty much complete "relaxation" by a young soldier Elvis killing time in Germany. This is most likely part of the material "magically" located in Vernons office in a box of home recordings.

Note that some songs were recorded in a later home recording session and formally released by BMG ("I'm Beginning To Forget You" , "Mona Lisa"). Apparently Elvis really liked these songs.

"Take Me Home Again Kathleen" was one of Elvis' favorite songs to play on piano.

"Apron Strings" is rumoured to have been performed live at the Louisiana Hayride , unfortunately no tapes have surfaced yet to bear this rumor out.

Track 26 is an astonishing track that graphically illustrates the poor sound quality of the original tape , and the amazing job that the bootleggers performed in restoring the tape.

The original tape was recorded on a personal tape recorder set up in the living room of Elvis' home in Bad Nauheim. Elvis used this device to fool around with new ideas for recording sessions to come later when he returned stateside in 1960 !


Die habe ich mir einiger seit herr fur 15 euro gekauft, aber dieses teil wird auch gekauft

[gast-20100801]

Das hört sich doch nach einer schönen Veröffentlichung an! Wenn die Qualität der vorangegangenen Produktionen (ich meine jetzt die Erstausgaben mit Büchern, nicht die Zweitverwertungen) gehalten werden kann -wovon ich jetzt mal ausgehe- wird es bestimmt ein Knaller!

Die kommende MRS-Produktion ist mit Sicherheit etwas, auf das ich mich schon freue.

[Harty]

Gestern war auf der offiziellen Homepage noch kein Hinweis darauf....

[burroughs]

na und? das set soll ende februar zu haben sein, ist also noch mehr als genug zeit, sich um die hp zu kümmern

OUT 22ND FEBRUARY 2010...Eine sehr schöne, und qualitativ hochwertige VÖ.

[burroughs]

danke, aber das ist auch bereits im EP zu lesen

[gast-20110724]

Die Bücher sind fertig gedruckt, und warten nur noch auf die CD's, die in den nächsten Tagen dazu kommen. So dass die VÖ pünktlich zum 22.02.10 da sein wird. Das Buch soll ca. 95 Seiten stark sein, und beinhaltet viele unveröffentlichte Aufnahmen. Mir pers. gefällt der Schriftzug ELVIS mit den Sergeant-Stripes besonders, eine sehr schöne Idee

[burroughs]

mir wär´s lieber, sie hätten das format ihrer ersten vö´s verwendet..
das war irgendwie handlicher.
