Well, the "Close up" box is also nice to have

Here's a list of my Box Sets:
King Of Rock n Roll: The Complete 50s Masters (5 CD)
From Nashville To Memphis: The Essential 60s Masters (5 CD)
Walk A Mile In My Shoes: The Essential 70s Masters (5 CD)
Pure Diamonds Box Set (4 CD)
Collector's Gold (3 CD)
Today, Tomorrow And Forever (4 CD)
Platinum: A Life In Music (4 CD)
Live In Las Vegas (4 CD)
Artist Of The Century (3 CD)
Command Performances: The Essential 60s Masters II
That's The Way It Is: Special Edition (3 CD)
Elvis Aron Presley: The Silver Box Set (4 CD)
A Golden Celebration (4 CD)
Cafe Europa Sessions
What I was wondering is, is there any box sets that you think I'm missing, that every Elvis fan should have?
Also, if you could choose a box set what box set would you like to see released? I would like to see an "Elvis In Hawaii" box set which would include not only the Aloha shows but also the November 1972 HIC shows, the 1961 Benefit Show at Bloch Arena and the 1957 concerts, along with a booklet featuring Elvis In Hawaii facts, photos and info on all his visits (professional and personal vacations) to Hawaii.
Or even an MSG Box Set or Houston Astrodome Box Set similar to the above Hawaii Box Set.

That aint tactics honey....that's just the beast in me.
Elvis PRESLEY:The most important, most influential artist of the 20th century. b. 8 Jan 1935, Mississippi, US, d. 16 Aug 1977. He holds, or has held, almost every chart-related record including perhaps the most important: more No.1s than any act in chart history.

Hi Col Jon
One you should most importantly have is the unauthorized release of the Vinyl Box Set titled "Behind Closed Doors"
!!!
Amazing material on here to say the Least !!
In the mists of time these bootlegs were of course vinyl albums with stunning classics as the ‘Behind Closed Doors
rams
.the image is one thing and the human being is another...it's very hard to live up to an image......................
That is one cool box to get. Will be tough though nowadays.
And to be honest, a lot of this box has been released in better quality over the years.
Box sets that I like but I guess are not really "essential" are:
Celluloid Rock Box 1 & 2
Unsurpassed Masters Box 1 - 4
Profile Box 1 & 2
The Gospel Side Of Elvis
I think that most of the material on these releases is available elsewhere (and in better quality too due to new technology) but there's something about the artwork and the sense of history that appeals to me.
I love the Elvis Close Up Boxed Set as well........it's a killer.
CLOSE UP for the great ON TOUR show included![]()
Thanks for the replies guys. I was gonna get "Close Up" when it was first released but decided against it. I guess I may have to have a rethink.![]()
