FTD Re-Pressings

Despite rumours that Elvis fans have bought all they can handle and that FTD, and CD sales in general, are dropping it is great to see that FTD are repressing NINE of their most popular Classic Album releases.

These include the recently released "Live A Little, Love A Little" and "King Creole" Classic Albums. Also being reprinted are "Elvis" (the 2nd LP), "Flaming Star", "Elvis (Fool)", "The Return To Vegas", "Sold Out" , "Hot August Night"  and "The On Stage Season".

Last book of The Elvis Files series in June

Next month, the long-awaited and last part of The Elvis Files series will be released. The series, written by Erik Lorentzen, is a wonderful collection of books and tells the story of Elvis's life, private and on the road, on the basis of thousands of pictures. Each book weighs more than three kilograms! In June, the last part, about the years 1976 and 1977, will be released.
