Alheco Records presents Elvis: The 1968 TV Special Recordings Volume 1 & 2, a great collection of alternate recordings from the legendary TV special! None of these recordings are included on offical cd's (like on the official 1968 Comeback boxset), so these are a great addition to make your collection complete. All recordings are presented in the best possible sound! For the first time together on 2 great albums! Outtakes, instrumental versions, radio spots... Enjoy these alternate recordings like never before! Both cd's are Elvis fan only releases and released in limited quantities.
