Why ?

With caveats, I don't have a problem with Elvis's mono recordings being reformatted into genuine stereo. But how tacky is "59 Cuts on 2 CDS"? And why on earth add a 1962 EP as bonus tracks to a dedicated 1950's project? I see also that 'My Happiness' is included in volume 1 but it's sister Sun Studios private recording 'That's When Your Heartaches Begin is a bonus track in volume 2. Awful.

With the phenomenal success of the Elvis movie which is still showing in cinemas across the world after 10 weeks, these types of releases wanted and unwanted will crawl out of the woodwork to make a quick buck.
