The 100-page book chronicles Elvis' short recording career there, from its humble beginnings (his personal acetate recordings from July 1953 and January 1954) through to the final Sun sessions in 1955. The full and comprehensive text is complemented by rare photographs and unseen pieces of documentation.

The 2CD's contain the complete archival studio recordings from 1953-1955: Elvis' personal acetates, the Sun masters, along with rare session outtakes. The tracks have been painstakingly remastered and restored.

Sound is much clearer and crisper

There are many highlights on this new release. All of the newly remastered tracks now sound much clearer and crisper. For instance, 'That's All Right' has been taken from the 'Mother' master of the original Sun 45rpm. Also, for the first time on CD, 'I Forgot to Remember to Forget' appears without the false bass RCA added to it in the 1980s when tampering with the master tapes.

The remastering of Elvis' first acetate recordings - 'My Happiness' and 'That's When Your Heartaches Begin' (from July 1953) - has also well exceeded the sound quality ever achieved before on these primitive recordings. Furthermore, on the outtakes of 'Blue Moon', the painstaking audio restoration has removed the overload and studio hum present on previous issues, and made them sound much better than ever before. Indeed, all previous erroneous mastering faults and miscalculations have been rectified on this release, making it the best collection of these seminal recordings thus far.
