Elvis' Golden Records was the very first encounter with Elvis. And I was all shook up after hearing that. Since then I cannot get enough of his legacy. Maybe someone in Russia will have that same experience whilst hearing this record. For the rest it is nothing new for the EU and USA market.
A timeless classic no matter where it's released in the world. Elvis at his very best aka the 1950's and the start of his career 1956-1957.
Just recently fallen in love with this album all over again. It would be good to see FTD release this ON ONE DISC alongside the extended version with extra tracks. I've noticed some artists releasing two versions of old LPs and Elvis would also benefit from this strategy.
In 1963 after Bossa Nova Baby , my mum gave me some money to buy a present and this LP was what i bought . Gee the Russians economy must be in trouble they are relying on Elvis to boost their economy , that's a another first for Elvis .
