I prossimi FTD di aprile !

La FTD ha annunciato le sue prossime due emissioni per il mese di aprile 2023.

Elvis As Recorded At Madison Square Garden (3 CDs)

Set di 3 CD con versioni remixate di entrambi gli spettacoli già disponibili (10 giugno 1972, pomeriggio e sera) dal Matt-Ross Spang di Memphis.
Il disco 3 contiene la conferenza stampa originale, registrata all'Hilton di New York il 9 giugno.

Confezionato nel cofanetto della dimensione da 8 pollici , questo set include un libretto a colori di 20 pagine, grandi foto, cimeli, trascrizione della conferenza stampa e ricordi del compianto Phil Gelormine.

The Making Of Blue Hawaii

Combo di 2 libri / 4 CD + doppio EP con copertina illustrata.
I libri con copertina rigida dovrebbero includere fotografie inedite, dettagli sulle riprese e altro ancora.
I contenuti audio coprono le sessioni di registrazione e saranno mixati ex novo dai nastri originali a 3 tracce.

Ulteriori dettagli appena possibile.

Una versione nel classico formato "box da studio", con solo i 4 CD audio (stiamo parlando di "Blue Hawaii") sarà pubblicata alla fine dell'anno...

Per chi si sta chiedendo quale sia il più com'pleto set riguardante questa seduta di regiastarzione, la risposta è che il più completo sarà questo della FTD.
Chi lo vuole solo in formato audio, dovrà attendere qualche mese in quanto sarà emesso nel formato "session" dalla stessa etichetta danese.

In passato, questa soundtrack era stata setacciata da numerosi pirati. Tralasciamo i CD che sono sempre stati tratti dai vecchi vinili e concentriamoci sui prodotti della "Laurel", il magnifico cofanetto di 3 LP "The Blue Hawaii box", e i 4 vinili della "TCB Records", intitolati "Blue Hawaii-The complete session".
Il cofanetto della "Laurel" ha molte meno takes rispetto ai dischi della "TCB" ma i 4 LP di quest'ultima, NON include tutta la session come invece accade in questo imminente prodotto della FTD.

Ecco i bootlegs nel dettaglio:
