Hi boys ! Here in Argentina the expression "Al Rojo Vivo" it would be more or less like "It's Hot" in english . Thank You and TCB !👑👍👍

[@EAPSociety]

Oh, very cool! Thank you so much, Luis - that helps a lot!

[@marcoesquandolez4737]

I missed this one. I’ll have to go back and find it. I keep meaning to and keep forgetting 😂

[@SuperAtlantis1]

Good show guys. Nice cd package. Dude the jacket and cummerbund are a nice touch but john is correct about a waiter at a Mexican restaurant, 😆

[@EAPSociety]

Thank you! And yeah, can't argue with that - especially with the jeans! lol

He also might pass for one of the Three Amigos.

[@EAPSociety]

@@johnheath1868 Ha! I love it!

[@vinorichi9158]

The new FTD vinyl release of FIA has a wonderful cover and artwork, too.

[@EAPSociety]

Very cool! Yeah, we don't get much of the new vinyl, but that artwork does look pretty stellar!

[@gregory7038ty]

Hello John and Jamie, one of my favorite soundtracks and I enjoy your overview on various releases. I hope we get a Girl Happy sessions someday

[@EAPSociety]

Thanks, Greg! And I agree!

[@nancy_v9059]

Hi Jamie & John, Love the channel. I'm getting caught up with the unboxing videos. Enjoy them very much. Very informative. Are you guys going to do videos on the most recent sessions box sets? Also, what sessions do you think is coming out next? Keep up the great work 😊🖐

[@EAPSociety]

Hi, Nancy! Thank you so much! Yes, we absolutely will - and given the release schedule we've had so far (which has seen the non-soundtrack sessions released in basically chronological order), we'd guess that the 1966 "How Great Thou Art" sessions is likely next. But they might throw a curveball and give us another movie soundtrack, and I love it all, so either way will be good!

[@elvispresleycollectorsgroup]

Always been a special album and great FTD session set

[@adrianchapman6871]

I have this box set great set I am listening to elvis on tour box set

[@EAPSociety]

Very cool! It's a great one. :)

[@liorb5625]

Hey hey Ole Ole ;) LOVE the FUN IN ACAPULCO Soundtrack, to me i think Elvis sounded the best his voice was at the TOP ! of course i bought it when it came out, gotta love those great BOXES , Jamie your outfit looks amazing brother, love it ;) Thank you both so much , Cheers, Lior

[@EAPSociety]

Hey, Lior! Thanks, man! And you're very welcome!

[@brandon37924]

I think these sessions are the best recorded (engineered) of all of Elvis's soundtrack recordings. It's a shame they all weren't recorded this well. Such a clear full sound without any distortion. Very little tape hiss (compared to soundtracks that came later). I guess the budget was a bit higher on this one. Elvis of course is in great sounding voice as well.

[@EAPSociety]

Oh, agreed - the sound on this session is very lush!

[@dennyepresley6082]

Enjoying this unboxing as I type, its actually my favourite soundtrack album. You mentioned Ursula Undress 😊. Did you know she was dubbed in Dr No? Was she dubbed in this movie? Keep TCB JnJ X

[@EAPSociety]

Very cool, Denny! Yeah, I love this one, too! And I didn't know she was dubbed in Dr. NO - fascinating! Thanks for sharing that!

[@evelynnemec1529]

Jamie I remember you and the TCB Dancers doing this. My favorite was Margarita you did with Lane. So amazing

[@EAPSociety]

Oh, yeah! That was a lot of fun to put into the shows, too!

[@haraldtrittner4396]

I still remember reading an Interview with Ernst in 1999/2000, when he mention full Elvis Sessions will never be release on FTD and the FTD CD Label lastet for about 5-6 Years and that's it! This is really "Fun" ...and not in Acapulco only 😆. Yeah FTD; let's all of Elvis COMPLETE Recording Sessions coming in please! Thanks for another great episode and congrats and a big compliment to Jamie's Mum & Granny making this excellent Mike Windgren "El Toro Jacket"👌

[@EAPSociety]

Yep, I remember that, too - Ernst told me the same thing directly, repeatedly - so you never know what the future brings!

[@rogertobias5410]

Is there any footage of the two concerts Elvis gave after the army, in the 60's?

[@EAPSociety]

Hi, Roger! Sadly, none that we know of yet - but hopefully some might turn up one day!

[@rogertobias5410]

Is there any you Is there any DVD out there with Elvis movie deleted scenes, movie outtakes or footage on the internet.

[@EAPSociety]

Good question! There's not much, but there are a few seconds of outtake footage on the old "Elvis In Hollywood" documentary, and I think that footage is still in the DVD version.
