Another budget release? The days of buying every single Elvis CD just for the cover is over. When will Sony ever come out with a good quality contents? We can only rely on FTD now but the price is still a killer!

I wonder if the mistakes on the EU editions will be fixed for the German market editions?..........will wait and see when released.

Well i have a triple cd set in front of me called 'The Real Miles Davis', it cost 5 euro and it is amazing, the insert advertises, cd compilations called ' The real Johnny Cash' and 'The real Elvis Presley' "Beautiful cover". So my point being, i've never listened to Miles Davis before but now i know what all the fuss is about, so guess the uninitiated who have bought the real Elvis and johnny, will feel the same after buying Quality music at a knocked down price.

I have seen both "The Real Elvis" sets on display in the shops in London for a couple of months now, it is a good compilation at a bargain price. The purpose of such releases? I would have thought that was obvious, to beat the cheapie CD compilers at their own game and give the public the chance to sample Elvis' music for next to nothing.

The two "Real Elvis" CDs have been out in the UK since the 20th June. As they are EU pressings it is rather surprising they have not yet been released in Germany. But they are good value for money, & the tracks may well come from the Masters box set!
