The 44-page booklet contains the same Peter Guralnick essay as the original, guiding us through Elvis'career-defining early years in an informative and entertaining manner. There is also a 'sessionograhy' detailing all the recording sessions, as well as a discography. An abundance of photos including album covers, posters record labels evoke the era perfectly.

Elvis CD |
||
 |
Elvis is remastered using Sony's DSD technology. Includes bonus tracks, rare photographs, and original album art. This was Elvis Presley's second album release -- but only his first TRUE album, as his debut consisted of the Sun sessions. This album is a blueprint for Elvis's musical career -- he would go, in varying degrees, on the paths he set upon here. Elvis sings with authority and insolent swagger on the rockers (listen to the angst-ridden, manic 'Paralyzed') and heartfelt vulnerability and soulfulness on the ballads (the stark 'Love Me Tender'). ELVIS stands as one of the best rock & roll albums of the '50s, and one of the King's best, as well. All tracks on this Elvis Presley CD have been digitally remastered. Read Elvis CD Review. |
