BOX 6 CD - ELVIS: THE CLASSIC BOOTLEG COLLECTION VOLUME 3


E' stato pubblicato il volume 3 della serie "Elvis: The Classic Bootleg Collection".
Un box di 6 CD
in cui si ascoltano classici bootleg come "That's The Way It Is", "To Know Him Is To Love Him", "Special Delivery", "Kickin' Back", "Rough Cut Diamonds Volume 2" e "Play It Hot".
Il box viene presentato come segue:
Un sublime box in cui sono contenuti 6 classici album bootleg di Elvis Presley. Si può scegliere tra gli anni '60 e '70, anziché focalizzarsi su un solo periodo. In questo modo si ha tutto.
In questo box avete la possibilità di avere i vostri album bootleg di Elvis preferiti. Questi erano gli album che i fans desideravano di più negli anni '70 e '80 perché contenevano materiale più raro e migliore rispetto alle pubblicazioni delle etichette di Elvis.
Questo incredibile box contiene miniature degli album delle pubblicazioni originali, con tutte le tracklist originali, rimasterizzate digitalmente e, pertanto, con un suono notevolmente migliorato. Inoltre, molte di queste tracce sono inedite nelle pubblicazioni delle etichette ufficiali.
Proprio come i volumi 1 e 2, ci sono delle vere perle in questo set!
Per esempio l'album "Rough Cut Diamonds" conteneva alcuni mixaggi molto diversi rispetto alla versioni successive.
E l'album "Kickin' Back!" conteneva una versione della prova di "Promised Land" con un finale alternativo. Le registrazioni delle prove del 1974 debuttarono su questo LP nel 1988 e le prove in versione completa si resero disponibili solamente 7 anni dopo. Nell'album era stato inserito anche il famigerato monologo del concerto di Settembre del 1974.
L'album "Special Delivery" è sempre stato controverso. In esso si trovano le versioni di "Love Me Tender" in duetto con Linda Ronstadt, oltre alla canzone "In My Dream", che in realtà non è nemmeno cantata da Elvis, ed alla take 4 della canzone "Rags To Riches".

I titoli dei 6 CD sono:
"That’s The Way It Is" -"To Know Him Is To Love Him" - "Special Delivery" - "Kickin’ Back!"- "Rough Cut Diamonds Volume 2"- "Play It Hot"
