But I'd really like to have the complete Memphis 1969 sessions. It would be a nice celebration.
Other releases:
- A box with shows from 1975, on cardboard, with 5 CDs (like the Charlie Bring me The Request Box) format.
- Standing Room Only LP, reissued on colored vinyl;
- The complete sessions from Nashville 1970 or 1971...
I don't see a box with 5 CDs happening. FTD will continue with the concept of 3 concerts per edition for the time being.
Two Nashville sets have already been released in 2020 and 2021. Here too, I don't see it happening in the short term to release this material again, albeit with unreleased material.
I've heard rumors of re-releasing old FTD titles on vinyl. Whether that will really happen, I don't think so. This will drastically reduce the value of the first pressings.
The negativity on another forum? Oh well, it's run by a dictator who is only interested in the Elvis of the 50s. And is still looking for the recording of ''Tiger Man'' on the Sun label. They are also concerned about the costs of packages from one continent to another. As well as audience recordings are praised and hailed as the ''Holy Grail'', while officially unreleased music, and/or improved music, is burned down.
