If you're not planning to spend triple-digit amounts on a DCC Gold Disc on eBay anytime soon, but would still like to hear the music of the "King" in excellent sound quality, then we have good news for you
George Marino has taken the trouble for Analogue Productions to remaster with meticulous care the original master tapes of the "24 Karat Hits" from RCA-Victor at Sterling Sound
"Love Me Tender", "Jailhouse Rock", "Heartbreak Hotel", "Are You Lonesome Tonight..."- hard-core Elvis fans are just as right here as lovers of good old Rock 'n Roll
24 Karat hits from various phases of the musician's career, all of which made it into the charts, are gathered together on this hybrid SACD
A long-out-of-print favorite of audiophile listeners, known for its top-notch sound quality, Marino puts the finishing touches on it
The result is stunningly detailed and has the typically warm sound known from Elvis recordings
It simply stood out that RCA did not have to skimp on Elvis recordings
George Marino ennobles the King once again and adds a touch more presence on the latest version by reducing the noise floor
Two dozen titles on one CD that have written music history
RECORDING January 10 1956 – January 22 1969
