Elvis Golden Boy CD & It Won't Seem Like Christmas Without You CD
Elvis Golden Boy CD
Golden Boy is the ultimate album from Germany and was released in August 1965 by the major german TV guide HÖRZU and TELDEC, the record company who handled Elvis' publishing rights in Germany.
The album is highly sought after by collectors from all over the world, as it was taken off the market within a week, when The Colonel got aware of it. This produced a real monster collectible.

It Won't Seem Like Christmas Without You CD
The vinyl album was released in 1982 in the UK. It featured some great gems, that are very hard to find these days. Some highlights are take 2 of O Come, All Ye Faithful. Running more than a minute longer than the original version, it has Elvis singing the first verse one more time, to the accompaniment of an organ, lending the song an almost sacred character. And the ending is dynamic, with Elvis raising his voice one octave higher than on the original. Another highlight is the (then) unreleased master of the remake of I'll Be Home On Christmas Day.Also, there's the alternate version of If Every Day Was Like Christmas, , the very hard to find duet versions of Winter Wonderland with Hanna Pakarinen and Blue Christmas with Martina McBride (this is the famous '68 comeback show' version, never released on CD before and now available in stunning sound quality ).
And, ofcourse, theres many, many more... for the first time you have a single disc with all Elvis' christmas / gospel highlights. No endless takes, no endless chatter... put the disc in your cd player and you will have a marvelous christmas! Coming in a superb longbox digipack sleeve, this is the ultimate 2011 Elvis christmas gift.

Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD
Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD Video with Sound.
Never before have we seen an Elvis Presley concert from the 1950's with sound. Until Now! The DVD Contains recently discovered unreleased film of Elvis performing 6 songs, including Heartbreak Hotel and Don't Be Cruel, live in Tupelo Mississippi 1956. Included we see a live performance of the elusive Long Tall Sally seen here for the first time ever. + Plus Bonus DVD Audio.
This is an excellent release no fan should be without it.
The 'parade' footage is good to see as it puts you in the right context with color and b&w footage. The interviews of Elvis' Parents are well worth hearing too. The afternoon show footage is wonderful and electrifying : Here is Elvis in his prime rocking and rolling in front of 11.000 people. Highly recommended.
