Post Description

A Boy From Tupelo – The Complete 1953-1955 Recordings is de definitieve collectie opnames van Elvis in zijn Sun jaren. 
Elke master en outtake die de tand des tijds heeft overleefd is op deze 3CD te vinden. 
Ook de opnames van twee privé plaatjes die Elvis met zijn eigen geld heeft betaald en alle bekende radio- en liveuitvoeringen uit deze periode zijn inbegrepen. 

Veel van deze opnames zijn zeldzame demo’s, sessie opnames en live uitvoeringen, waaronder een recentelijk ontdekte en nooit uitgebrachte opname van “I Forgot To Remember To Forget” van een Louisiana Hayride uitvoering uit 1955.
