September 10 - Legendary Releases

The French edition of Gillian G. Gaar's 'Elvis - The Legend: The Authorized Book from the Graceland Archives' (2022), titled 'Elvis La Legende' will be re-issued as a 192-page hardcover edition on October 31, 2024 by the French publisher L Imprevu. 


Stereo Preview and Pre-order

The French RDM-Edition added the details and previews of the new 'Golden Elvis' CD to their website. This CD features the first two volumes in Elvis' 'Golden Records' series in newly created Mono II Stereo mixes. The CD is due for release on September 30, 2024.

Publicity stated
: The Elvis Golden Records series has proven very popular with long-time fans and casual buyers alike over the years, with the first two volumes perfectly covering Elvis' first major period of success. 24 major hits were collected on the two original albums, providing an excellent showcase for the Rock 'n' Roll years. 

However, while this period will always be associated with the rockers who rose to the top of the charts, the versatility that we now associate with Elvis' illustrious career was already evident in the ballads and country tunes. 

With these two albums, presented here in stereo for the first time, Elvis' '50s hits are now ready to be rediscovered!

Go to the >>> RDM-Edition website to listen or pre-order the CD for only 12,50 Euro!




More Liquid Vinyl

Due to the success of the first unique Liquid-Vinyl release of Elvis’ historic first single release Sun 209 ‘That’s All Right / Blue Moon of Kentucky’, the follow-up SUN 210 'Good Rockin' Tonight / I Don't Care If The Sun Don't Shine' will get its own release on Liquid Vinyl - September 2024.

This special liquid vinyl version of Sun 210 10-inch playing at 78 RPM is restricted to 125 copies worldwide. They contain a 2-colour liquid, nicely matching those notable SUN colors, that moves inside the vinyl.

Each of these unique vinyls are handmade and take an hour to produce each one. They also have the original etched numbers included with the appropriate song sides and are by far the most remarkable SUN replica made.


Platinum Silver

The Not Now Music record label announced the October 4, 2024 re-issue of their 2011 3-LP set 'Platinum Collection' as a Limited Edition on silver colored vinyl. 

Publicity stated
Featured here on this 3LP Silver vinyl gatefold set are some of the vital and most important music ever committed to vinyl. It covers the first seven recording years of Elvis Aaron Presley, years which saw him progress from teenage Memphis truck driver earning $35 a week to a multi-millionaire performer with the music and movie worlds squarely at his size 11 feet. Enjoy this portrait of the King at his imperious best – young, slick and ready to rock.
