 Basically, it comes down to this... September 8, 2008
...if you're a huge EC fan, you've got most of this material. However, there are a lot of new, eager, young fans out there, just discovering (or on the verge of discovering) some really good stuff from the late 70s. If I was one of those new, eager, young fans, I'd want to get my hands on a lot of the material very quickly - not just the usual album stuff, but the peripheral recordings that were being made at the time the albums were being made. This is a brilliant introduction. If you have all this stuff already, you don't have/need to buy it! If you don't have the stuff, and you're keen to learn... BUY IT! Probably, the best album EC ever made, with lots of extra material on top. But bear in mind you shouldn't overlook "My Aim is True", or "Get Happy". Do you know what? "Painted from Memory" (released 1999) is pretty damn fine too. Anyway, if you're a newbie fan - get this! If you're a die-hard old fan, don't get so bloody worked up about it. You go out to work to make a living, don't you? So does our El.
you don't have to buy it!!! April 9, 2008
I can see why some people are dismayed by multiple issues of Costello's back catalogue, but come on, nobody is forcing you to buy them all. And it seems to me, a keen collector of his work, that each issue has contained important new bonus material. And often overall sound quality has improved too. I wanted to hear the 1978 concert (I saw Elvis and the Attractions at the Dominion, Tottenham Court Road around that time). It's exciting, and worth the price of admission.
I hope EC continues to allow the release of material from the vaults for those of us who want to collect it!!!

This is a classic album, there is absolutely no doubt about that, the production, the performance, the energy and the emotion on the album has rarely been equalled let alone surpassed by anyone.
So it's been issued a few times before, the purpose of these reviews is to focus on the actual product not the motive behind its release. The product is stunning quality and value, if you disagree with the bare bones of the album being released for the 4th (or is it the 5th) time that should not detract from the sheer quality of this album. Simple fact is, if you already have a previous incarnation of the album and you don't want the extras that this release brings then don't buy it, if you are interested in reading the extended liner notes, or if you want to hear the previously unreleased tracks (more tracks "extra" than there was on the original album) then join me and celebrate all things Elvis. If you don't already own the album all I can say is "why not?"

I wondered when the nutters would come out of the woodwork? Just look at the head case review below! Such negative people should get themselves sorted out in the head. Maybe if he actually bought this instead of blabbing on about how it then it would sort his head out.

ignore the bizzarre ranting of jameson - a cursory glance at his other reviews confirms the impression of a sad and troubled individual. Meanwhile Elvis classic gets big fat re-release...its not compulsory, but if you havn't got this and like sharp lyrics and well-played rock, buy it in this luxurious package.
