The Jungle Room Sessions is my favorite
I HAVE ALL THE FTD RELEASES IN MY COLLECTION. I LOVE THEM ALL BUT IF I HAD TO CHOOSE:
MY TOP TEN IS:
1. THE JUNGLE ROOM SESSIONS
2. THE NASHVILLE MARATHON
3. ELVIS IS BACK
4. THE MEMPHIS SESSIONS
5. ELVIS SINGS MEMPHIS TENNESSEE
6. ELVIS THATS THE WAY IT IS
7. ELVIS COUNTRY
8. ELVIS PRESLEY SPECIAL EDITION
9. ONE NIGHT IN VEGAS
10.ELVIS AT THE INTERNATIONAL & DIXIELAND ROCKS (TIE)
I wish I had all of them. That must be nice.
I AM SO HAPPY I HAVE THEM ALL IN MY COLLECTION. I WISH THEY WOULD RELEASE A FEW MORE EACH YEAR!! THEY PUT A LOT OF EFFORT IN TO THESE RELEASES THE ARTWORK IS ALWAYS STUNNING!!
My favorite outtake-albums: The Jungle Room Sessions & So High
Soundtracks: Out In Hollywood & Viva Las Vegas (although some masters are missing)
Live: Dixieland Rocks & It's Midnight
Classical albums-series:Elvis Presley & Today
Actually most of them are great, but with some releases (e.g. Frankie Johnny, Something For Everybody) the material had been released in good sound quality on bootlegs before, so the official releases materialwise couldn't offer some real highlights unfortunately.
In terms of quality there could be a general improvement, since cds are often not really centered, with the digipacks the glue sometimes doesn't properly stick etc.
And for those who are responsible for the artwork: Compare your orange (RCA) cd labels with the colour of the original which is shown right behind - you will be surprised, I guess!!
Nice week to all of You,
Thomas

Not so easy to answer that question because all of them are great. But my favorites are The Jungle Room Sessions, The Memphis Sessions and The Nashville Marathon. From the classic albums I like Elvis Country and Elvis Is Back the most.

Memphis Sessions. Great to hear his voice, minus the extra 'orchestration'
I have all of them and it's so hard to choose just one but off the top of my head I'll go for 'The Jungle Room Sessions'

I have all of them in my collection, but my favorite changes constantly. Recently I am listening to "That's The Way It Is" quite a lot, "Big Boss Man" is my favorite live-disc and "So High" my favorite one with studio outtakes.
But, as I wrote before: It changes a lot.
The only one I have is Elvis At The International...it's my favorite.Out of the ones I have heard that I like are One Night In Vegas...All Shook Up......In Person 2CD....The Impossible Dream.Those are the ones I want next along with Polk Salad Annie.
