Hi Gang,
I haven't been her for a while due to pressure of organising our GREAT EIN trip to Elvis Week.. (see our blog and GREAT photos here)
Getting home to the backlog has been pretty crazy too.
- The only thing that has kept me sane is having my hot little hands on a test pressing of Southern Comfort's 'The American way Vol.5'
At home it has been cranked up to maximum FUNK.
In the car, stuck in traffic, I have been pissin' myself laughing (much to other driver's concerns!)
- A real salvation in the (work) gloom... as I say ...
>>Elvis' 1969 ?American Studio? sessions are featured in the first half of the CD and include some fabulous and unknown "Rough Mixes". We also get to hear Elvis Live in 1970, while the amazingly rare outakes of the 1968 'Goin Home' sessions fill the CD up to the brim. To be honest my house has been rockin' with the funk all week - and I have also been laughin' my as off. Does an Elvis reviewer's life get any more fun than this! Although this is not the absolute final product, please enjoy our special Sneak Preview. Make sure you don't miss out.<<<

Hi Rover,
As these are hard sort after items it really depends on where you can find them.
For the unreleased gems that the whole series contains - and let's face it, stuff that will never be officially released - plus stylish booklets it is fair that they cost a few dollars more than FTD digipacks CDs.
Same as the excellent Madison CDs really...
If you like complete Elvis recording sessions with lots of eaves dropping on the creativity going on they are fabulous value for money.
Ask around because they are only produced in small quantities and sell out quick.
Once you buy one, you'll buy the whole series!!!
Cheers
Piers
