My question would be.. Did you ever heard one or more of the so called 'mini-tapes' who recorded some of the musicians while the sessions took place?

I'd ask him if he'd like to buy my whole Elvis collection so that I could be free of it.

Why are FTDs so exorbitantly expensive and why aren't they available via download?
I know the answer to the second 'question', it's rhetorical.

I'd ask him if he'd like an assistant.

Yes i too would like to know why they arent available to download, would surely boost sales, introduce great Elvis performances to more fans, and be easier to collect for many fans ?

How on earth is it possible that the releases from Venus do sound better (for the most) than the official ones?

Well, they have access to earlier-generation tapes, more sophisticated mastering equipment & more highly-skilled audio engineers, don't they ?

Add the fact that they spend more time & care.

In those circumstances, even I could produce better results !
