Elvis Presley - 4 CD set Close Up

This is a must have for any Elvis fan. A four disc set of pure unreleased songs. Disc one is of Elvis in the 50s. Most of the songs are outtakes from songs from the movies Loving You and Jailhouse Rock with Jailhouse Rock having the most on this disc. It is wonderful to listen to these songs in the outtake form. Most of the Jailhouse Rock is the master take for either the movie or the soundtrack that was on EP. Disc two is from his movies from the 60 mostly from his first four movies from the 60s - G.I. Blues, Flaming Star, Wild In The Country and Blue Hawaii. Disc three is of outtakes from the Nashvile sessions from the 60s. All the songs are great to hear from that time period. Disc four is a real treat, which is a complete concert. On April 18, 1972, Elvis was making the movie Elvis On Tour which would turned out to be his last movie that he would do. During that tour Elvis was filmed by MGM at various shows which only three was mostly used for the movie. On this disc is one of those shows featured in that movie. He was in San Antonio, Texas and he was wearing the White Matador suit which fans would give it the name of Red Lion Suit because of the belt. The songs that was featured in Elvis On Tour was Proud Mary, Never Been To Spain and Burning Love. The cover on the case is excellent with a photo of him in the 50s. The booklet is excellent as well and wonderful photos of Elvis in it. Their is nothing to dislike of this set at all. A must have.
