Available as a 3CD deluxe box set and a digital collection, A Boy From Tupelo - The Complete 1953-1955 Recordings is the most comprehensive collection of early Elvis recordings ever assembled, with many tracks becoming available for the first time as part of this package and one performance--a newly discovered recording of "I Forgot To Remember To Forget" (from the Louisiana Hayride, Shreveport, Louisiana, October 29, 1955)--being officially released for the first time ever.
A Boy From Tupelo – The Complete 1953-1955 Recordings includes--for the first time in one collection--every known Elvis Presley Sun Records master and outtake, plus the mythical Memphis Recording Service Acetates--"My Happiness"/"That's When Your Heartaches Begin" (recorded July 1953) and "I'll Never Stand in Your Way"/"It Wouldn't Be the Same (Without You)" (recorded January 4, 1954)--the four songs Elvis paid his own money to record before signing with Sun. The collection also includes every Elvis live performance and radio recording known to exist from the period, and a 120-page book formatted as an illustrated travelogue and datebook chronicling the genesis of Elvis’ early career via facts, anecdotes, memorabilia and many rare photos.
