Mahalo From Elvis was a compilation album by RCA/ Camden released posthumously in 1978. It consists five (then) previously unissued tracks Elvis recorded in Honolulu on January 14, 1973 for inclusion in the U.S. version of the live concert TV special 'Aloha from Hawaii' (these tracks are not considered 'live' recordings, as no audience was present). The recording of No More, was not used in the special. All other songs were previously issued recordings originating from the Presley movie soundtracks 'It Happended At The Worlds' Fair', 'Harum Scarum' and 'Double Trouble'. Camden re-released the album with a differend cover and album title in 1979 ('The King...') The original album was certified Gold by the R.I.A.A. on 9/15/2011.

The original album was released in 1991 in Canada by RCA Special Products but both the sound quality and the quality of the cover print were poor. Now this album is presented on CD in top quality sound in a stunning 6 panel digipack with superb original artwork / sound quality, using the new masters for the original tracklist!

Also added are some rare outtakes of each track, making this finally the CD release the 'Mahalo From Elvis' album deserves. Only 500 copies of this title will be produced!!!Original Album

The Complete Louisiana Hayride Archives 1954-1956 CD From MRS : CD / 100 page book

The MRS / JAT Productions release of The Complete Louisiana Hayride Archives 1954-1956 CD is a dream come true but I can't as there was no anticipation something like this would ever be released. For years now we have had the basic el cheapo compilation of the basic tracks but now we have a full CD with a running time of over 75 minutes that gives a very good overview of Elvis in concert in the 1950s. This CD is presented exactly the same as the MRS releases Off Duty With Private Presley Book Deluxe CD set, Tupelo Welcomes Home Elvis Presley Deluxe CD set and Such A Night in Pearl Harbor CD and 100 page Book set.

Video Preview: Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD

Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD + 16 page booklet. Never before have we seen an Elvis concert from the 50'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. 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.
