No other analogue pressing or version of this album - and we mean: ABSOLUTELY NO OTHER; NONE; NADA; ZERO; ZILCH - NONE WILL EVER SOUND AS GOOD AS THIS BEAUTY. This is the version to die for. Unless and until you have heard THIS, you have NEVER heard this classic Elvis album at all. I'll be willing to bet that even he himself would have been shocked to hear this pressing.

What else can be said of this Elvis’ master collection that hasn’t been said over the past 20 years since it was first released? Not much, we believe. This version of the album, with its audiophile treatment, meticulous hi-grade original artwork, extended dynamic range, amazing clarity of sound and robust rhythm section will rip your speakers to shreds, and leave you begging for more. You will not only hear some of the best songs Elvis ever recorded, and his powerful, robust vocal the way it is intended to be heard, but you will also get to hear Elvis belt out some mean down-and-dirty blues!!! Out of print for almost two decades, there is a very not even a hope that this audiophile version of Elvis’ early-60's masterpiece will ever again appear in the stores, leaving us with some truly inferior alternatives. Don’t miss out on an opportunity to own a piece of history - and then some!

And just a brief reminder: original "RCA Living Stereo" recordings - mostly classical, but also a handful of pop and easy listening titles - were made under the supervision of the most knowledgeable technicians and engineers on earth. The sound is simply amazing. On  mint or near mint copies , quiet passages are so quiet - and the surface noise so conspicuously absent - that you will not even realize that your stylus has hit the surface of the record until the music starts. The highs are high, and the lows are very low. You are going to need a subwoofer and a hypersensitive tweeter to express some of these tonal ranges appropriately. This is the music for the ears, heart, soul, mind and guts alike.This is a rare opportunity to acquire this great album in its finest, primordial audio format, no longer in print, and no longer easily obtainable.

·       CONDITION:

·       RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)          THE VINYL IS ABSOLUTELY, PERFECTLY MINT,  as if never played before. The original luster is totally intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles like brand new. The labels look perfect, simply gorgeous, with absolutely no trace of wear around the spindle hole. The record is TOTAL PERFECTION - ABSOLUTE VISUAL NIRVANA! We are confident that, in this condition, the record we present here is truly once-in-a-lifetime find.

(b)            The records come in their a poly-lined inner sleeves, which have - apparently with success - shielded the vinyl from the harmful impact of elements over many years!

(c)           The records are  pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(d)          All DCC 180-gram pressings are made on a beautiful, high-quality, virgin-grade vinyl, which is usually used for audiophile, extended-dynamic-range, half-speed mastered and connoisseur pressings.

(e)           Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!
