The CD is in The Sun on Saturday Big Red. It was advertised on the front page of this mornings Sun in Scotland but I think it's across the UK.

It's in the Sun. At least it was in the Irish edition this morning. 10 Studio and Hayride songs five bonus tracks various by artists. Nice write up about Elvis in the newspaper. "The greatest recording artist of all time". 15 tracks free! And the Christmas Album cost me half a weeks income back in 1957:-) But far better quality!

I went onto The Sun website, and there was nothing there about this release. Must just have been Scotland & Ireland.
I'm rarely impressed by the free CDs given away in newspapers. The Motown one given away in The Sunday Express last year was awful. However, there was once a good Dylan mini greatest hits EP (in The Independent, I think), and one paper gave 'The Ipcress File' away on DVD a couple of years back.
