I thought I'd start this thread about the new Elvis DVD collection announced by Graceland. I know that it won't be available in stores till sometime in 2007. Only at Graceland and this website in 2006:

I checked it out. It's an 11 DVD set including 9 movies and a new version of the Comeback concert. Also home movies, movies poster, a CD with alternate takes and live tracks and ELvis' script from Jailhouse Rock.

 

As a long-time Elvis fan but new collector of DVDs and CDs, I wanted to know if this is a good set to add to my collection.

 

Thanks.

Hi VelvetElvis :D

 

It does look a beautiful collection

 

Here's a link to a thread we put on here earlier ;)

And I see there's now a link to a special trailer for the box set on Elvis.com: http://dvd.elvis.com/index.php?ref= :D

Thanks Tilly.

 

Actually the link is http://dvd.elvis.com/index.php?ref=rfve but the one you listed will get folks there.

 

I like the set because it has some of Elvis' best movies (call me crazy but I live Harum Scarum and, of course, Jailhouse Rock) and their posters, a new version of the Comeback concert, new home movies and a cool CD of versions of songs by Elvis that are for the most part available for the first time. I also think including ELvis' script from Jailhouse Rock is very cool.

 

I also like that EPE and Graceland decided to give real Elvis fans a chance to get the collection either at Graceland or the website before it's available in stores and other websites sometime next year. They could have sold tons in stores for the holidays.

 

It will be without a doubt the best thing in my collection so far. I definitely have a couple of friends who will love to get this for Christmas.

 

Best,

VE

I hopefully will be getting some clips and photos from the collection soon to post.

Thanks VE, Look forward to seeing them

Which would you prefer? Pictures, video clip, audio or all of the above?

Be great to see some pictures VE, but whatever you have to share will be good :D
