ELVIS PRESLEY - A PORTRAIT IN MUSIC 
 
We are very proud to announce a new Limited Edition ( 500 copies ) FACTORY PRESSED SILVER CD (NO CD-R)
 
 
For many, mostly European fans, this album was their first introduction to Elvis´ music. The album was re-released many times and sold millions of copies worldwide. The original album was first released in 1968 in Germany, but after Elvis´ passing in 1977 it hit the charts again in many countries.

It´s a shame that RCA never released this album on CD.

But finally it´s here now. We are sure that, if only for sentimental reasons, many Elvis fans are happy to have this classic album in their CD collection. But there are more reasons to treasure this new release.

Of course this CD contains the original album in brilliant sound quality, taken from the latest remastered  master tapes, but also various b-sides from the hit singles (  European / US releases), including hard to find outtakes ( many of them not even available on FTD ) and 2 unreleased  takes, unavailable elsewhere. Total of 27 tracks!!!

Also included is a 4 page full color booklet, including the same beautiful center spread that was inclosed in the original LP inner sleeve ( promotional shot for ´Kissin´ Cousins´ )

Order your copy today....to treasure it forever!
