Hi, Ed. I have two of those sets as well as the “shorter” set that came in the red box (10 Golden Records, 20 Golden Hits); don’t know why they did that! The box set that you showed would be the more practical choice. I do believe, if memory serves, that these box sets were released prior to the double album, “Elvis In Concert”.
This is the 1st time I've this. There was a Canadian pressing of Elvis 45's that came out Elvis passed too. With the hard cardboard sleeves with different pictures sleeves and different songs. combinations combinations
Here in the Netherlands the singles were sold individually. I bought Hound dog/Don’t be cruel , In the Ghetto/ Any day now/Are you lonesome tonight?/I gotta know ,Heartbreak Hotel/I was the one good stuff.
Nice set my friend i have the one in the red box and i also have the 2 volume set of the golden set series for thr 50th birthday and your right on that set great sound to, great video my friend
Hey Ed, I bought the two 50th Anniversary singles (gold pressings) box sets. The boxes edges are a little worn but the singles inside remain unplayed! I remember I would have been about 11 and I made a deal with a local business to get the money to buy them! I worked 2 days straight, 8am until the night cleaning their warehouse. At the two days, the guy then made me clean his car before giving me the money! He was a real creature!
Hey Ed! That set was released in October, 1977. The ten record set (20 Golden Hits) was released in December, 1977. I got both sets at Walmart when they were first released.
Got em in ‘77. Removed from box. Never played them. Also inserted cardboard in each sleeve that does not break down and acids ring ware and sealed in plastic. Maroon one is Canadian and has less records. Same process for 60 years
Hi Ed, I like you was old enough to remember that day. I stood outside my record store the next morning and bought additional recordings. The thing that brought everything into focas was a women came into the store while I was there all dressed in black with a vail and bought every Elvis record the store had in stock. Also Ed we just passed the date of June 26 that marked the anniversery of Elvis last live performance in Indianapolis.
You Are right about a teal box set i see it at my local thirft store i think it was released around 1978 But its more like a Michigan Blue but yea they exist.
Hey Ed, great video. I remember picking this up in the summer of 1978 at a Peaches records store in Florida. The quality of picture sleeves is disappointing, I don't remember listening to them, but I'm sure I did. Later sets were great. The version of this in the red box had 10 of the same singles instead of 15. I still have both them.
@@owena.hayesjr9976 the ones I usually frequent are Looney Tunes in Babylon about 20 minutes from Infinity Records, High Fidelity in Amityville, about 10 minutes away from infinity records and Vinyl Bay 777 in Plainview about 20 minutes from Infinity. Hope this helps
im thinking about starting collect elvis vinyl,but im not sure,i have read online many of those companies releasing those records aint good quality,and i have no idea what companies have good quality releases
My recommendation is to search used record stores and collect original releases pressed in Elvis’ lifetime. You can find later 70’s pressings for relatively cheap prices. Cheaper than buying new pressings at $35 each or more….Good Luck. TCB⚡️
@@TheKingsCourt1972 thank you that helps me out alot,i will follow your advice on that :) i was a cd collector but lp's are alot more appealing to me,looks better than the small cd's.
Don't remember those sets but you are lucky to have them
I've seen them on Ebay a couple of times and was tempted to buy but changed my mind and now that you've said that I'm glad i did.
Luv the show.
Bought it as a young kid still have them 👌
🥰💕Love Elvis🌹 I much would love to have his records also❤️🌈🎶
Got that for Christmas that year
Good Stuff ! 😍😊😉
Good memories! I have that gem. Man, we’re getting old.⚡️
I have the Black Box still sealed plus an additional open one. I also have the Red Box-Set.
Awesome Ed I wish I would have seen that in 1977😊
I was so tore up when he passed away I didn't even know they came out with records like that of him That's how tore up I was
For example. Moody blue came out with Way Down in Canada.
Remember That

according to elvispresleyusavinyl that box set was released : october 1977
I too have this 45 box set which Discogs has a really low price! I will keep mine since its value is so low!

First time ever seeing this collection! Wow! Great find!
RCA did the right thing and pumped out more Elvis Goodness. There will never e enough.
I had this year ago, lost it in a flood.
Sorry to hear that…

A bought the red box set in 1978 not sure when it was released never had it long because my so called friend stole it never managed to replace it

I got both sets at Walmart when they were first released.
A set in a red box also came out around the same time called 20 Golden Hits. 10 singles. I bought them both.
Got em in ‘77. Removed from box. Never played them. Also inserted cardboard in each sleeve that does not break down and acids ring ware and sealed in plastic. Maroon one is Canadian and has less records. Same process for 60 years
What a sad day. I have to say in my lifetime the only day that surpassed the level of sadness and shock was 911.

Hi Ed I have all the singles and exact picture sleeves from the box set but I dont have the box. Nice video and as always love from the UK ❤🇬🇧.
Hello Ed
Is there another record store near infinity records you would recommend? I am coming from way out East. Thanks

Just a question where is the record shop that you visits in your videos, I would like to go?
I usually go to Infinity Records, Looney Tunes, or Vinyl Bay 777

Hi ed do you own any Elvis books
Some…👍
@@TheKingsCourt1972 do you own the elvis book Elvis day by day by Peter Guralinick and Ernst Jorgensen
Why such big holes in the middle? How are you supposed to play them?
There are adapters that go into the middle so they can be played.
@@TheKingsCourt1972 Thank you! - Always puzzled me!
@@TheKingsCourt1972the big holes (I always thought) were so they could go in a jukebox!
They are 45 rpm
If you have the original records why buy again
Good question
