Produktinfo

Es war der Beginn dessen, was wir heute als Popmusik kennen. 1956 begann Elvis Presleys Karriere bei RCA mit einer einzigartigen Hitserie und epochalen TV-Performances. Jetzt wird diese Phase des King erstmals in einem aufwändigen 5-CD-Box-Set dokumentiert – Elvis total!

Erstmals dokumentiert nun ein aufwändiges Box-Set jenes turbulente Jahr vollständig. Die fünf CDs von „Young Man With The Big Beat“ versammeln praktisch jeden Ton, den Elvis in diesen zwölf Monaten vor einem Mikrophon absonderte – von sämtlichen berühmten Aufnahmen, die bei Sessions in Nashville, Memphis, Los Angeles und New York entstanden, über diverse Outtakes und Alternativ-Versionen bis hin zu Live-Mitschnitten, darunter ein bislang unveröffentlichtes Konzert aus Shreveport, Louisiana, sowie diverse Interviews und nicht zuletzt originale Radiowerbespots.

Product Information

The explosion of Elvis Presley’s career on RCA Records during the 12 months of 1956 was a wondrous evolution. By the end of that fateful year, the rockabilly singer from Memphis whose audience was rooted in the deep Southern states, would be the most famous person in the world. How did it happen? In one word: music. “…My pelvis had nothin’ to do with what I do,” Elvis said in 1956. “I just get kinda in rhythm with the music, I jump around to it because I enjoy what I’m doin’, I’m not tryin’ to be vulgar, I’m not tryin’ to sell any sex, I’m not tryin’ to look vulgar and nasty. I just enjoy what I’m doin’ and tryin’ to make the best of it ...” The rest, of course, is history. Ten million singles sold, three million EPs, and 800, 000 LPs’ worth, in just that first year. 1956.

Young Man With The Big Beat puts the focus on Elvis in 1956. The package includes his RCA studio master recordings and outtakes in New York, Nashville and Memphis; live perform­ances; interviews; and much more. Taking its name from an RCA poster campaign for his debut album, the super deluxe 5-CD, 12-inch square box set (with an amazing 80-page book with timeline) will be available in September.

The five CDs comprise the following, all material originating in 1956:

CD One, Studio Recordings: 17 tracks recorded in New York, Nashville, and Hollywood, starting with the 12 songs on the debut LP, Elvis Presley (‘1254’), followed by non-LP single A-sides and B-sides, and EP tracks;

CD Two, Studio Recordings: 22 tracks recorded in New York, Nashville, and Memphis, starting with the 12 songs on the second LP, Elvis (‘1382’), followed by non-LP single A-sides and B-sides, and EP tracks;

CD Three, Live Recordings: Rare remasters of shows at the Frontier Hotel in Las Vegas (four songs); Little Rock, Arkansas (seven songs); and a recently discovered, previously unreleased concert in Shreveport, Louisiana, in December (ten songs);

CD Four, The Outtakes: Four outtakes from the first historic RCA session in January (“I Got A Woman,” “Heartbreak Hotel,” “I’m Counting On You,” “I Was The One”), segueing into the complete session of February 3rd (11 takes of “Lawdy, Miss Clawdy” and 12 takes of “Shake, Rattle And Roll”); plus the first of the interviews – the complete Warwick Hotel (NYC) interview by Robert Brown in March;

CD Five, the Interviews: The Paul Wilder interview, plus his interviews with Colonel Parker and Oscar Davis; plus two segments of Elvis’ rarely heard candid monologue, “The Truth About Me,” and two advertisements for RCA Victrolas.

Over the course of CD One and Two, Young Man With The Big Beat compiles Elvis Presley’s complete 1956 masters. The year was fueled by a run of hits that kept radio well-stocked: “Heartbreak Hotel,” “I Was The One,” “Blue Suede Shoes,” “Money Honey,” “I Want You, I Need You, I Love You,” “My Baby Left Me,” “Don't Be Cruel,” “Hound Dog,” and “Love Me Tender” topping the list.

In addition to the master takes, outtakes, and live performances heard on CDs One through Four of Young Man With The Big Beat, there is also the most extensive collection of audio spoken word material ever included on an RCA release. These extended and rare interviews are previously unreleased by RCA Records. The first of these segments, at the end of CD Four, is the complete Elvis interview by Robert Brown that took place at the Warwick Hotel in New York City on March 24th.

CD Five then presents:
The Complete TV Guide Presents Elvis interview (Elvis interviewed by Paul Wilder backstage at the Polk Theater, Lakeland, Florida, on August 10th);
Colonel Parker and Oscar Davis (interviewed by Paul Wilder backstage at the Polk Theater, Lakeland, Florida, on August 10th);
The Truth About Me (Original spoken word 45 rpm disc included in Teen Parade magazine. Recorded on the set of Love Me Tender, August 22nd);
The Truth About Me Interview (Recorded on the set of Love Me Tender, August 22nd);
RCA Victrola radio ad 1;
RCA Victrola radio ad 2 (both ads never before released commercially).

Young Man With The Big Beat will feature one of the most extra­ord­inary books every created at Legacy. The focal point of the book, spread across its 80 pages, will be a unique, meticulously-researched, day-by-day chronology of Elvis’ iconic year, including every concert, every recording date, every television appearance, personal events in Elvis’ life, and much more. A dazzling photo array of memorabilia will illustrate each day and entry. Concert ticket stubs, RCA memoranda, letters from fans, postcards from Elvis to his family, tour itineraries, magazine covers and articles, trade charts, fan club relics, RCA publicity photos, concert photos, candid photos, and more will be a feast for the eyes and the imagination as 1956 unfolds. The book was assembled by Elvis expert Roger Semon.

Young Man With The Big Beat will also include five rare 8x10 photographs (suitable for framing), five original-size poster replicas, and a replica concert ticket stub.

Young Man With The Big Beat was produced for reissue by Ernst Mikael Jørgensen, the respected director of RCA’s Elvis catalog for over two decades. Jørgensen is also the author of the essential research guide, Elvis Presley: A Life In Music (St. Martin’s Press, 1998). He recently completed The Complete Elvis Presley Masters, the 27-CD crown jewel in RCA/Legacy’s Elvis 75 campaign of 2010-2011. That set contains all 711 master recordings released during Elvis’ lifetime, housed in a 12-inch square presentation case which includes a coffee table-style book.

After nearly a year and a half of studio recording and singles releases on Sun Records of Memphis, Elvis Presley’s recording contract was sold to RCA Records on November 21, 1955. Elvis arrived at RCA Studios in Nashville on January 10, 1956, with his band, guitarist Scotty Moore, bassist Bill Black, and D. J. Fontana on drums. It was the beginning of an odyssey that would not only transform the lives of Elvis and his buddies, but would also reshape the face of popular music, entertainment television, radio, concert promotion, movie production and more in America and around the world.

From the master takes recorded at those January 10th sessions, “Heartbreak Hotel” (inducted into the Grammy® Hall Of Fame) and “I Was the One,” to the Million Dollar Quartet jam session back home in Memphis on December 4th, it was a year in music that will never be equaled.

Rezensionen

,,Das Boxset dokumentiert seinen Durchbruch, versammelt Aufnahmen (inklusive der ersten beiden RCA-Alben), Demos, Live-Auftritte und Radio-lnterviews aus dem Jahr 1956. ln dieser Konzentration zeugt es von der Rock'n'Roll-Revolution, die Elvis damals auslöste. Es zeigt sich hier aber auch einmal mehr, dass der Rebell auch schon früh und gerne Charme und Crooner-Schmalz (,,Love Me Tender") spielen ließ." (Audio, November 2011)
