Elvis - MEMPHIS (5 X CDs)

ELVIS PRESLEY

Elvis - MEMPHIS [2024] (5 X CDs)

Elvis/Memphis. It just doesn't get better than this for the serious Elvis fan. However, any serious '50s, '60s, '70s pop culture/rock & pop music fan will find plenty to love in this five CD boxset. Beautifully packaged and annotated, as well as given the maximum quality remix/remaster treatment (excepting Disc One's legendary Sun masters), each CD represents a specific Memphis event. The 1969 American sessions. The 1973 Stax recordings. The 1974 Memphis Homecoming Concert. The 1976 Graceland sessions. The Big Deal is that the recordings have been stripped of the Felton Jarvis "sweetening," which Elvis not only approved of but insisted Jarvis added to the originally released tracks. That said, would Elvis have approved the release of these naked studio tracks? Probably not. Do I and will most hardcore fans approve? I would have to say a resounding "absolutely yes!" The legendary post-tv comeback special American recordings have never felt more alive. The Stax sessions leap from the speakers like never before, blending rock, pop, r&b, and country elements like no one else ever did or could. And the 18 Graceland recordings have a heretofore unheard clarity of purpose -- I'm in real pain here! -- that will open your eyes and break your heart. Even its three rhythm numbers (For the Heart, Moody Blue, Way Down) have a melancholy undercurrent. As for the Homecoming Concert, to my ears it's Elvis' loosest, least Vegas in-concert recording. For my money, it's his best '70s live recording. I thought I knew everything there was to know about Elvis' Memphis career. Wrong! There's a whole lot of new musical info contained within the five discs that make up Elvis/Memphis. Five brightly shining stars in the Southern sky and very highly recommended. (Amazon)

This 5-CD collection of Elvis’ songs over the years features 111 tracks, 88 of which are newly mixed versions of the select recordings, pure and without overdubs."
