Elvis Presley Album Collection Box Set Review From RCA UNBOXING

[@vinylman95productions39]

I just ordered this. Can't wait to dig into it and listen

[@justaman3419]

Great video. I don't agree with your statement that he doesn't have a White album or whatever. He has it. It's called: From Elvis in Memphis A little tip for one of his more mature albums from the 70s: Today - 1975 This is my favourite from that period

[@mikek3313]

Elvis is back is better than every album you mentioned. One of the most definitive albums ever lol

[@CerealAtMidnight]

Hey, I agree! That album is definitely a classic.

[@pearlmario9858]

Idk about everyone else but I think Raised On Rock, Good Times and Promised Land are very underrated Elvis albums. Good Times is a personal favorite of mine out of his discography. But of course, his best work are from the 50s and early 60s. There’s no arguing with that statement.

[@nathanmiller2626]

How did I miss this release!? I have a lot of albums on CD, but this looks awesome! It's going for $174 which comes out to just under $3 an album. It will go great with my Bowie, Beatles, and Zeppelin sets.

[@ditaapertiwi98]

That's very cool😘😘elvis presley is the best

[@MostlyBuicks]

The screwed up the label for Roustabout. They chose the 2nd version label (like Girl Happy) instead of the 1st version label (like Kissin Counsins). The first version label (Silver top stereo with large Nipper) on Roustabout was available for about two weeks before it was replaced by the second version label (White top stereo with smaller Nipper). It is so rare the people who designed this boxset probably were not even aware of the 1st pressing label design of Roustabout.

[@erichutton3669]

That boxed set came out fantastic! The attention to detail is awesome. Huge Elvis fan, going to have to try to pick this set up.

[@CerealAtMidnight]

It's really wonderful, and It's one of my prized possessions. I'm still discovering things on it, because sixty CDs is a lot to get through and absorb!

[@maidvices1426]

and the entire collection fits into my 1TB Smartphone and goes with me wherever I am. Beautiful

[@elvispresleyrecords7285]

Hey man, I have wanted that set for a long time! Nice unboxing! The CD’s look great! It is very cool how it is exactly like the original

Yes. But some of the songs were in some movies

@@coreyjohnston4673 some of the tracks on the album were in Tickle Me. Elvis was in trouble with the IRS so they decided to use old material instead of having to record new material to save money.

I want that boxset but it's missing Viva Las Vegas

[@Price70]

Viva Las Vegas was never an LP it was an EP, extended play.

[@pequenoguia]

Great vídeo! I just get it online and I'm waiting to receive.

[@Naturelover2]

This album was remastered at Decca studios, London by David Marshall

[@gregholland9725]

The sun sessions album that came out in 1975 should be in this set

[@Price70]

The tracks are. They were originally presented on 4 albums in the 50s spread out.

[@albert71292]

Even though I have quite a few of these recordings on LP and CD reissues in the past, I think it was worth the investment for the few I didn't have, an the improved sound quality on the ones I did have.

[@frankiesusnak6719]

yeah...the vynyls are in great shape..my fathers collection..plus i have 6box sets on vynyl on coolectors items..and about 30 pirate label and compilation..blue record from Moody blue ect..well thanks for your reply..

To be honest I kinda like them all A few of my favorites How great thou Art His Hand in mine I love the madison sqaure concert

[@frankiesusnak6719]

hi there..wow thats a wonderful boxset collection..I have the them all but on 33rpm...how could i get a copy for myself..please les me know thanks..cheeers from Montréal canada

[@CerealAtMidnight]

I wish I had all these albums on vinyl! This set is definitely great, and is basically almost all of Elvis' recording career in a single box with only a few things left off. I'm still going through it all, to be honest. I put Amazon links in the description of the video for those who want to buy it. This set is currently 195 dollars, which I know sounds like a lot...well, it IS a lot, but it's totally worth it. Here's the link to the product: amzn.to/2lsaObd

[@brocklinehan]

Great set. Unfortunately, it's missing the soundtracks for both Jailhouse Rock and Viva Las Vegas. WTF?

[@CerealAtMidnight]

The songs from Jailhouse Rock are there. That was a six-song EP, so those songs ended up on the 1959 compilation album "A Date With Elvis." As for Viva Las Vegas and the four songs on that EP, I can't find them! So they may very well not be on the set, but they might be included as bonus tracks on one of the CDs.

[@brocklinehan]

If it's supposed to be all the albums RCA released, then those two albums should be there. If that means that some of the songs are repeated, so be it. For the money this set is going for, if they say it's everything, then it should be everything.

[@CerealAtMidnight]

It’s not quite everything, but to be fair, Sony Legacy doesn’t claim that it’s complete, either. It’s just called the RCA Albums Collection. They never indicate that it’s everything, though it is the most comprehensive Elvis box set ever released.

[@Russ34]

The 2 albums you list as missing do not exist - Jailhouse Rock and Viva Las Vegas were released as EP's only.

[@jonathanaldecoa1099]

Russ34 that’s correct, they were indeed EP’s. They are missing a few of the Camden albums, which songs from those albums show up as bonus tracks spread over the collection, along with others. I’ve recreated a playlist that follows the Complete Masters box set and most of it is there using this Album box set as a source. With the exception of the Country album, with those annoying snippets of I Was Born 1,000 Years Ago. For those tracks I used the 70’s Essential and Good Rocking Tonight boxes and a budget “country’” themed compilation, that had a cut of Tomorrow Never Comes, that’s the same mix from the 70’s Box set, sans the false start, as sources.

[@bwfchamp7]

Does the book come with the liner notes? I only have the Johnny cash Columbia set and the cd has the liner notes. I heard the bob Dylan cd set has the liner notes.

[@CerealAtMidnight]

Yes, the book has all the album info and details.

[@bwfchamp7]

@@CerealAtMidnight that’s good to hear, with the Johnny cash set, I have to take pictures and zoom in or get the vinyl if I want to read it

[@dannytcb8583]

woud have been nice if they also did replica's of the inner sleeves.

[@fdsuperstar2547]

Did I miss Separate Ways, Burning Love, & Welcome To My World albums?

[@CerealAtMidnight]

Most compilations of previously-released material aren't included, but if there were new songs on them, those are preserved in this set as bonus tracks on certain albums.

[@dragoscristi105]

Great !!! Thanks !!!

[@mariettocapponi2124]

god bles elvis and your life

[@giuseppecoluccia7230]

why there isn't the Golden Records vol. 5?

[@CerealAtMidnight]

I'm only guessing, but I suspect that Golden Records 5 simply wasn't considered essential by the people who put this set together. Golden Records 5 came out in 1984, years after Elvis died, and didn't make the charts, peaking at #207. There are several compilations like that which aren't included in this set but that I wish were, like "Worldwide 50 Gold Award Hits #1," a four-LP- set which was the first time a lot of his late sixties singles were collected on an album. However, there's no music missing from this collection. The songs that were on "Golden Records 5" are scattered around on other albums as bonus tracks. For instance, "From Elvis in Memphis" has the singles "In the Ghetto," "Suspicious Minds," and "Kentucky Rain" as bonus tracks after the album proper. They seem to have grouped the singles with albums from the time period and recording sessions pretty well. .

[@Price70]

Volume 5 was a posthumous release. Any album that wasn't released during his lifetime is excluded.

[@ajsmith5295]

I could never understand why people idiots dislike Elvis because he changed from rock and roll rockabilly why would you carry on doing with the roll rockabilly through the 60s to the 70 he advanced and changed

[@coolasmud]

Just imagine if there was a vinyl version of this. Ouch!

[@marklittleton5328]

So what exactly would you need besides this collection to have the complete Elvis?

[@CerealAtMidnight]

While I'm not an expert, I believe 99 percent of the studio tracks Elvis ever recorded are here in some form, even if some are hidden. Elvis had a ton of compilation albums that featured older songs with a few new ones added to entice buyers (You'll Never Walk Alone, Separate Ways, etc), so while those albums aren't here (preventing track redundancy), the new songs that were on those albums are here on various discs as "bonus tracks." So just to clarify, while this box set doesn't contain every ALBUM (because Elvis had a ton of compilations), it does seem to contain pretty much all his SONGS from the RCA period. A few of his Sun Records songs from the fifties seem to be missing. Also an album called Having Fun with Elvis On Stage is missing. For live recordings, that's a whole other matter. There seem to be an endless list of those, both official and unofficial. I'd also recommend tracking down Way Down in the Jungle Room, which collects raw takes from the seventies before producers overdubbed them with strings and horns. Hope all that makes sense! The box set really is remarkable. I've had it for years now and still haven't uncovered all of its secrets. 60 discs is a lot of material, and while it may not be totally complete, it's remarkably close to it.

[@marklittleton5328]

@@CerealAtMidnight Thank you for the info....I have it ordered.....looking forward to getting it. Thanks again.

[@Nocturne22]

@@CerealAtMidnight They didn't include Having Fun with Elvis on Stage because it's not music, it's just him talking. That gave it some weird issues with copyright too.

[@christosp7564]

Oh oh we got a Problem. Where is the „Elvis Back in Memphis“ Album ?????

[@CerealAtMidnight]

It's there. It's on the "From Memphis to Vegas/From Vegas to Memphis" CD. All then tracks from "Back in Memphis" are included. Not all albums get their own dedicated CD in this set, and some albums share a disc, especially if they're thematically linked like the sessions you mentioned. Similarly, his singles from each period are also reflected as bonus tracks on many of the discs.

[@Price70]

Back In Memphis wasn't it's own LP until 1970. Originally those tracks were on the 1969 From Memphis to Vegas/ From Vegas to Memphis which was a combo of what would become two separate albums In Person at the International Hotel and Back In Memphis

[@jknuttel]

Good overview. However, the POT LUCK and FLAMING STAR albums are NOT soundtracks.

[@ramonfragafarah6871]

Hi I'm a big Elvis fan made brazil unfortunately I can not buy a box like this. I would like to be presented. If you can give me a big thank you for understanding.

[@recordsarethebest8248]

Very nice!!!

[@ajsmith5295]

I did not put this because it isn't the complete album collection in his lifetime missing are such albums as Burning Love hits from the movies separate ways You'll Never Walk Alone but it is a brilliant boxer but I'm a perfectionist and because they lied their company and there's no reason to miss them album so I didn't bother buying it

[@CerealAtMidnight]

They never marketed the set as complete, but it is, in fact, darn near close to complete. You'll Never Walk Alone was a compilation that only had two new songs. Those songs are here. Dribble dribble.
