This Is Elvis
ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK RECORDING
“We all know the story, now enjoy the man”
STAR is back! A brandnew title for 2015 is out soon, includes ALL tracks from the original “This is Elvis” album and more! Over 2 hours of new edits presented in WIDESCREEN !
A lot of tracks on the original album were overdubbed for the movie, but in the movie itself, only parts of the performance were used… now STAR has made an AMAZING new edit… the “voice over” is gone, and instead you get FULL versions of all tracks, lots of rare footage is included as well as some additional bonustracks.
HIGHLIGHTS:
(In fact… Star dvds are one big highlight…)
HIS LATEST FLAME: Preparations for the upcoming tour are going on.. the music dies out ….
MERRY CHRISTMAS BABY – FULL “strings” version with more rare footage of Gladys and Vernon at Graceland.
AS LONG AS I HAVE YOU – rare home movie footage mixed with the Movie version
WITCHCRAFT/LOVE ME TENDER – with REPRISE!
FRANKFORT “MOVIE” SPECIAL…a STUNNING 11 minute Movie Medley!
In the original Movie, the producers were not too pleased with Elvis movie career… ok… we all now he was no Oscar winner, but to ignore all those beautiful movie songs is a bit too much….STAR made a nice medley of some great movie performances!
TROUBLE/GUITAR MAN – Great new edits of the show opener of 68, if you think you;ve seen it all… you’re wrong…
IF I CAN DREAM – On the 3 dvd set “The 68 Comeback Special” a new clip was made for this song… the idea was good… the edits were terrible… until now….
VIVA LAS VEGAS – Elvis in Vegas, rare footage combined to make a great clip!
SUSPICIOUS MINDS – The only exception to the soundtrack… on the album the “Aloha” version was used, here we get the FULL VERSION of the outstanding August 12, 1970 performance, with new audio this is a real winner!
ALWAYS ON MY MIND – Again in the movie, only part was used here is the full “overdubbed” version!
LIVE IN THE GARDEN – After Elvis died, his Madison Square Garden concerts are proved to be overlooked during his career… also in the movie there was nothing used…. Here we get some highlights!
ALOHA FROM HAWAII – Rare “40th anniversary” edits are used here, and it works!
KUNG FU FIGHTING – Full “Carl Douglas” version with lots of unseen footage!
MY WAY - … The end is near, but the STAR edits keep coming!
AN AMERICAN TRILOGY – Fantastic overdubbed version, with additional footage from Elvis Funeral
Presented on DUAL LAYER disc, housed in a STUNNING 4 panel HIGH GLOSSY digipack
THE must have dvd for 2015!!
Just take a look at the beautiful cover which has the same” feel”of the album, but looks different at the same time, the inside takes you back to 1981 when fans worldwide enjoyed all those nice little pictures…
