Very nice video thank you so much. It looks lile you have an amazing collection. I've subscribed and look forward to seeing more of your videos. Love from the UK ♥
The Album Collection omits a lot of recordings released during Elvis' lifetime. I have included what recent albums you can find them on as well: Doncha Think It's Time (LP version): Gold Records Volume 2 from the 1980s. I Want To Be Free with original spliced ending: 1988 Essential Elvis Lover Doll (undubbed version WWGAH V2): 1997 King Creole Expanded version Dixieland Rock (truncated intro version from EP): Simply start your recording when the hand clap comes in. Long Lonely Highway (single version)**: The Japanese The Complete Singles Collection I'm Yours (single version)**: The Japanese The Complete Singles Collection Stay Away, Joe (accidently released on the 1st issue of Almost In Love LP): Don't know where? A Little Less Conversation (single version with "hey" intro)**: 2007 The Essential Elvis Presley Almost In Love (single version with full intro) 1995 Double Feature-Live A Little, Love A Little, Charro!, The Trouble With Girls, Change Of Habit. I Really Don't Want To Know (drum beat ending WWGAH V2): The Japanese The Complete Singles Collection Make The World Go Away (unspliced Welcome To My World): 1992 Welcome To My World I Can't Stop Loving You live: 1992 Welcome To My World and An Afternoon In The Garden Fool (single version)** Elvis Aaron Presley-The Silver Box ** Never appeared on any USA lifetime LP The first two volumes of A Legendary Performer had these previously unreleased tracks that are not on this collection: I Love You Because (unspliced take): Elvis At Sun (the best sounding CD for Sun material). Love Me (TV Special): all of these The Complete 68 Comeback Special Tryin' To Get To You (TV Special) Are You Lonesome Tonight (TV Special) I Want You, I Need You, I Love You (alternate) Blue Suede Shoes (TV Special) Baby What You Want Me To Do (TV Special) And a few more stray dogs: Old Shep (Alternate): The 50s box Elvis Sails: ?? Didja' Ever (take 2): 1997 GI Blues expanded
On The Album Collection the label artwork on Roustabout is the 2nd pressing version of the LP resembling Girl Happy label artwork. The 1st pressing version of Roustabout LP had the larger Nipper and RCA Victor in Silver as you find on the Kissin Cousins label artwork.
The book inside The Original Elvis Presley Collection boasts it contains ALL of Elvis' soundtrack songs is wrong. It does not include I Want To Be Free, Baby I Don't Care, Young And Beautiful or Don't Leave Me Now from Jailhouse Rock. It also is missing almost all of the bonus songs from his soundtrack LPs.
Although still not perfect The Complete Masters is the set to get. I have a few caveats on that box set content wise as well. _The version of "A Little Less Conversation" relased in 1970 on the Almost in Love Camden LP is not included. (In addition to the single master, the Complete Masters set includes the June 1968 version recorded for the NBC-TV Special.) _Take 2 of "I Love You Because," which was released on Volume 1 of A Legendary Performer in 1974 is not included. (The master was a splice of takes 3 and 5.) _Take 15 of "I Want You, I Need You, I Love You," which was included on Volume 2 of A Legendary Performer in 1976 is not included. (The master was a splice of takes 14 and 17.) _The version of "Long, Lonely Highway" (2:57) first released on a single is not included. (The album master runs for 2:23 and is included.) _Take 5 of "Old Shep," which was released accidentally on some pressings of the 1956 Elvis LP, is not included. _The false starts (takes 2 and 3) and the announcement of take 4 of "Such a Night" that were included on Volume 2 of A Legendary Performer in 1976 are not included. (The master was take 5.) _Take 17 of "Stay Away Joe," which was used in the film and accidentally released in 1970 on the first pressings of the Almost in Love Camden LP in place of "Stay Away" is not included. (The overdubbed record master is included.)
Thanks for your detailed comments @MostlyBuicks. I bow to your superior knowledge on the subject of Elvis. The Complete Masters set is probably the ultimate collection for Elvis fans. But unfortunately it's also super expensive and out of reach and I'm guessing out of print too. As I stated, this was intended to be a basic comparison between these 2 sets. The 'fine nitty gritty' of track choice is a whole other animal which you've covered in your comments. Given the number of masters and alternate versions available, that's a whole other can of worms which with respect, I will leave that to the more knowledgeable Elvis fans out there. I hope you enjoyed the video otherwise. Cheers 😎👍
Hi Pete thanks for this video. Ive got the 60CD box and today took delivery of the 50 CD. Its one I had been after for years but even used ones are very expensive. The Transparencies used for the 50 CD covers are a bit washed out in places and not sharp. What is your opinion on the sound quality on the 50 CD box?
@@peterx1957 Really enjoyed your video.I originally saw it in the Elvis monthly mag. I rang up about it at the time but it was quite pricey. A friend recommended the 50 CD box. Much like the first transfer of the Led Zep albums that many people swear by.
It’s such a great presentation and really good video, but I simply cannot understand your accent very well. British? Australian? I’m no way trying to be disrespectful. Cheers. 😊
@@peterx1957 No problem at all. I meant no disrespect to my fellow Elvis fans brother. Some people, (especially down south) have a hard time understanding my accent, I’m originally from NY !!! 😂

Hi, thanks for watching. I'm Australian. Sorry you're having trouble understanding. Maybe try CC.
