under-estimated by the 70's elvis fans but to see elvis in a picture theatre during the 60's was something that the unlucky few that of us that are computer literate appreciate . writing this how many of us 50-65's miss out on buying elvis music

They may not be Elvis greatest movies but they are fun and entertaining. I loved both the Soundtracks. Harum Scarum is already out on FTD 7 " Format. I hope BMG will bring out SPEEDWAY on 7" too. It will be nice to get Outtakes of Let YourSelf Go, Your Time Hasn't Come Yet Baby, There Ain't Nothing Like A Song and Who Are You.

I have never bought these Asian releases, I own the Region 1 versions - in Mono sound. The cover for the release above states "dts" and is that that an "ES" as well?! I would take this with a pinch of salt and seriously doubt if the sound is really in dts! I presume it's just a gimmick. Does anyone who buys these releases know? And what about the picture? Is it any good? I found the Region 1 versions to have excellent picture quality. I do hope the next batch of Elvis films announced to be released soon will be the same. The only Region 1 versions to suffer from picture quality are "Clambake" and "Follow That Dream".

E.J.F., this dvd really comes with dts-es sound. This sound were mixed and enhanced by our local movie distributors. As for the picture quality, it is as good as the Region 1 DVD I own. This movie comes in a high quality gold disc with high memory length which can fit in 3 movies. Quality guaranteed. This is a real gem for collectors and the cover art is a masterpiece. Interested? Pls email me.
