Elvis Christmas CD releases - how many times can you repackage two albums

A look at Elvis' festive albums on CD.

[@ElvisPresleyInJapan]

I love that cover with Elvis in the living room singing next to two lovelies dressed as Santa. It is indeed right up there with the Aloha inner sleeve. There's a video idea waiting to be explored - the cheesiest Elvis artwork. Thanks for the video.

A very good Elvis Christmas CD Collection Steve. I like your Graceland CD (i had the opportunity years ago to buy 5 of this special Fan Club President CD's but money was tight so unfortunately i didn't). Have you ever noticed that the 1985 "Elvis' Christmas Album" Vinyl / CD Release has a re-created Cover of the original USA 1957 RCA Victor LOC-1035 Album ...oh holy RCA 🙏😄 I'm wishing you and your wife A Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, A Happy New Year, All the Best for 2024 and a speed recovery my friend👍

[@grantbaensch9726]

We are a bit crazy buying the same songs aren’t we! Great collection Steve thanks for sharing. Keep well and best wishes for the festive season.

[@alexandernijeboer8385]

Great to see you are on the way back of taking on your normal life, Steve. You and your wife must have had a terrible and scary few months behind you. Enjoy the Christmas season and all the best from The Netherlands.

Hi Steve, a wonderful Merry Christmas 🎅🎄 to you, great collection, its amazing how many times they release the same songs 😮😅

[@lestresorsdelvis8431]

Beautiful collection Steve, merci beaucoup ! 🙋‍♂️🇫🇷🎄 Teddy

[@twofiress]

Have Yourself a happy Christmas and a healthy 2024 Steve!!

[@Patracat]

Happy Christmas and healthy peaceful new year to you too, Steve. My husband went through years of cardio rehab, which I believe kept him alive longer than what anybody thought he would live after his second heart attack, so take heart (excuse the pun😅). I appreciated your words of gratitude about living in a peaceful and affluent country. I get mad when my fellow Australian grizzle about something they don't like here; we live in one of the safest places in the world, beautiful climate (apart from the occasional bushfire or flood), and I am forever grateful to have been born here❤❤

[@TCB1963]

Glad your getting back to normal have wonderful Christmas great videos as always

[@josipjoeybosnjak]

Hi Steve! 👋😊 A great and wonderful CD collection of all Elvis Christmas 🎄 albums! Yes, is there just enough made already? 😅😂 I am glad you are doing well and wishing you a blessed and Merry Christmas you and your family my good friend! Cheers ☕️🙌🎄 TCB ⚡️⚡️😎

[@markwebb8879]

Great video, I like the new song opening 😅 Great collection, I only have 6 so far. Must get that awful one with the sexy Santas 😂 Happy Christmas and a healthy new year Steve!

[@whitehorses460]

great video, have a peaceful xmas.

[@thepianofixer]

Yes I totally enjoy looking at your Elvis collection I am truly a huge Elvis fan and collec collector.

[@tcbsince73]

Thank you 😀

[@FrankieLovesElvis]

I literally have more than a dozen Elvis Christmas CD’s in my collection, probably more. Just think how many more sales figures could have been accumulated over the years if they had just sold the original 2 Christmas albums??? It’s staggering, but we wouldn’t be Elvis fans if we didn’t own multiple copies of all these re-issues!!! 😊 Great to see you Steve. Merry Christmas 🎄 sir.

[@rayc4244]

I wrote my comments before I read yours. I basically said the very same thing as you. If Elvis' Christmas Album had sales of 35 to 40 million - it would rank up with there with Thriller and Greatest Hits by The Eagles! Stupid move by RCA!

[@FrankieLovesElvis]

@@rayc4244 Absolutely 💯 spot on !!! I still believe that Elvis is very under certified in his RIAA awards and sales figures, but unfortunately now, I don’t think that’s ever gonna be completely rectified or acknowledged anymore.

[@rayc4244]

Agreed! It's unfortunate that the records sold on TV aren't figured - none of the "record club" releases are counted - even if it's "only" 10 million all together, that is more than many acts sell in their lifetime.@@FrankieLovesElvis

[@curtissimpkins]

Nice collection my friend I did a video showing my Elvis Christmas cds.

[@paulmogg8036]

Great Xmas CD 💿 Collection Steve 🎅 Never seen a lot of those.... Merry Xmas to You 🎄 Great Video 🎙🎶🥂

[@MarkMc6859]

[@tcbsince73]

[@kerrydavidsadler980]

Great video you are so right you can't have enough ELVIS Christmas music lol. And you have a Giant of a ELVIS Christmas music collection. Have to go thur mine think I have 8 or 9 ELVIS Christmas releases just bought a brand-new still sealed 3 cd boxset of ELVIS CHRISTMAS with both Christmas music and gospel music in a tin box from 2007. Wishing you STEVE and your wife a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year, and everyone watching .

[@tcbsince73]

I saw the tin box recently online, I would like to get one.

[@woodycat7385]

The pop up Graceland cd from 1994 US edition is also worth having. Thanks and happy Xmas 🎄 holidays. 🎅

[@tcbsince73]

yes, I forgot to include it.

[@petripalonen]

Thank you for the video, and pieceful christmas!

[@haroldingebretsen2135]

[@eleanorhoneywill6527]

Thanks for sharing your Christmas CDs Steve. A nice video. You are right we have a lot to be thankful for here in the U.K. Have a happy Christmas and a very healthy 2024 to you and your family. God Bless. Ellie 🎼🎵🎶🕺🏻❤️😃👍⚡️

[@annieleouzon6598]

I m glad to see that you are feeling better...Great video and a great Christmas collection of the KING...ELVIS is a part of my Christmas Tradition for almost 5 decades...it would be a ****BLUE CHRISTMAS****without HIM...Did you have the chance to see the special.. *** Christmas in Graceland *** ?????.. Thank you for this video and I wish you and your family *****A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS****

[@tcbsince73]

Yes I saw the special. It was a good show but I was disappointed with only two Christmas songs.

[@marklacam9748]

That deltaleisuregroup company have done some good elvis stuff , I've got a double vinyl album from them called elvis love songs from 2015 and it's a triple play which ive never seen before of elvis, it's heavy pink vinyl, cd of the vinyls and a download code to scan, it's all in a gatefold sleeve with the cd camouflaged in it and the art work is really good. Love your collection of xmas cds and great video plus nice to see you looking well. Hope you had a great Christmas and luv the show.

[@tonytcb4504]

Lovely to see you doing well my friend take care and a Merry Christmas to you ❤

[@Kymoon99]

I only have 2 Christmas cds and many vinyls. Have a very Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄🧑‍🎄❄️⚡️⚡️

[@tcbsince73]

the two albums are probably all you need, but we get carried away!

[@SuperAtlantis1]

Happy Christmas 🎄!!

[@eddylauterback1312]

Colonel Parker had to repackage since Elvis was not always able to perform

[@jeffkaufman9875]

…The simple answer, as long as people continue to buy them!..

[@Patracat]

Wow, I had no idea there are so many versions of Elvis's Christmas albums. But then in Australia we don't have access to all the European versions you have over there. I have 4 vinyl albums and 3 CDs.

[@tcbsince73]

I found another nice cd just this morning while doing last-minute shopping!

[@christiansutter4260]

This is a great collection of Christmas cd, I just wonder if you listened all of them? And which one is your favorite? Anyway thanks for the video !

[@andrewhaddon7689]

What! No Elvis with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra? On a side note did the original version of Silent Night have a spoken word introduction by Elvis? Merry Christmas to you and your wife and have very healthy 2024.

[@tcbsince73]

No, the introduction was added, I believe, on the Memories of Christmas album. No RPO, might pick it up in a charity shop one day ;o)

[@sturmgewehr70]

I’m glad to see you feeling better! Great collection of Elvis CDs. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your wife!🎅🏻🎄🎅🏻 Btw, can you provide a catalog number for that crazy cd with the Aloha era Elvis and the two bikini clad girls?⚡️

[@tcbsince73]

The company is "Entertainment" and the number PEG CD661

[@sturmgewehr70]

@@tcbsince73 Thank you! Found a sealed copy on Discogs. I had to get it for that ludicrous cover!😂⚡️

[@ElvisPresleyInJapan]

I know how you feel. 😆@@sturmgewehr70

[@rayc4244]

Hello my friend. I've been saying the same thing for years. I simply don't understand why RCA (or whomever they've become) has done this to the Elvis catalog. The dozens of "new" Christmas albums have been taking away from the sales of the original two albums/CDs for years. Elvis' Christmas Album (1957) should have many more than the 10 million sales that Elvis has earned - which is his only diamond award! Sales from this one album would be somewhere north of 30 million had they simply re-released the two albums each year. That would make it one of the biggest selling albums of all time. What are they thinking? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$

[@markfrommanchester8204]

Hi they do a version of in a tin for you to collect not forgetting the rpo xmas Elvis cd I must have at least 25 Xmas CDs in my collection like your self it's an addiction Have a great Xmas M

[@Rcknroler913]

Elvis recorded 22 Christmas songs and has literally 40 Christmas albums. Ridiculous.
