This intriguing boxset contains 99 songs. 77 of these performances hadn't been previously released at the time. It includes masters, private recordings as well as rehearsals and live performances. The box kicks off with the, at the time recently discovered, 1954 demo "I'll Never Stand In Your Way" and concludes with "My way", recorded in the spring of 1977, which makes this compilation perhaps the most comprehensive Elvis Presley collection out there. This is a real treat for any serious Elvis collector!
