January 13 - The Legacy Of The Spring Of 1956
Elvis: Spring Of ´56
Autor Michael Rose announced the release of the book "Elvis: Spring Of ´56" containing unpublished photo's and stories on Elvis Presley's first visit to Detroit May 1956. The book is due later 2011.
Elvis Is Back Again
Sony Music will release a double CD Legacy Edition of "Elvis Is Back!" on March 1, 2011.
This is an odd but interesting release as it combines both Elvis' classic album, Elvis Is Back with his second, non movie, secular album released after he returned from the army, "Something For Everybody".
This upgraded CD features the original LP tracks as well as the 12 songs chosen for singles for each respective album, and every track is sublime. Both CDs highlight how the addition of the single releases (It's Now Or Never, A Mess Of Blues, Are You Lonesome Tonight? and His Latest Flame, Little Sister, Good Luck Charm) of the time would have benefited each album if some or all had been added.
