CD1 8 previously ‘officially’ unreleased tracks.
CD2 & CD3 already available on the above CD release.
CD4 previously ‘officially’ unreleased?

I don’t expect the Buffalo rehearsal to be from an improved source, it’s likely lifted from the AMIGA On Tour set.

With so much previously released material, I am wondering why this is even on the FTD label?

Looks more like a main label release but then again, it doesn't look like strong enough material for
it to be on the main label.

Mixing the ON TOUR material with the Feb. recordings doesn't sit right with me either.

I just might pass on this one.

Still waiting for the ultimate bluray On tour box set, along with a deluxe That's the way it is box set.

And why is track number 13 specifically marked as "rehearsal", when the top of the cover says the whole thing is a rehearsal?

It looks a pretty crappy release which will be mega expensive. No doubt the tracks will become on the internet without having to invest in books.

Maybe two!

"Love Me" is of course a Leiber / Stoller song, not Presley / Matson. They have obviously mixed it up with "Love Me Tender".

Also, "Over The Rainbow" (not "Somewhere Over The Rainbow") shows no writing credits all. It should read Arlen / Harburg.

Sloppy...

I guess so, the title on the spine reads "David English" and "Pål Granlund", so it looks like another book/CD combination.

Sadly FTD continues to push these book projects at ridiculous prices. Obviously there is a market for them but I'm not sure why they have to include any CDs with them, particularly a project such as this where much of the audio content is already available.

I'm not sure that I would have bought the stand alone audio content anyway as I'm past most of that. I admit, I bought the Making of Jailhouse Rock, Viva Las Vegas and Blue Hawaii sets, and they are really lovely, but there's too much actually. The sets are so bloody heavy.

In general, I've lost a lot of interest in Elvis, a day I never thought would come.
