Thanks for the reply guys. I have the first 4 releases with one of them (Elvis Is Back) being a USA release which has the slipcase which i prefer as it offers some protection to the digipack and looks nicer :smt002. I was thinking of ordering "Elvis Country" from the US but won't bother now.

I live in Ireland btw in case anyone was wondering. thumbs.gif

The problem I've experienced with the slipcases is that they're so tight it's difficult to get the set back in it without slightly damaging the edges of the cardboard cover.

The last two issues have had a silver, starburst-like sticker on the plastic wrap instead of the hard plastic slipcase.

Yes, it's a green, square sticker on the bottom left corner isn't it?

I saw them on the Elvis Country sets across from Graceland a few days ago, but can't remember if they also had the silver, starburst "Legacy Edition" sticker on them.

Hi John.

This came about on here or the last forum,about CD"s that has CD rot including!!!

TOMORROW IS A LONG TIME (NON FTD) ... There was a few more as well.

Back to your point/"Q" ... my FTDS that has cd rot are ...

I FOUND MY THRILL
I SING ALL KINDS
LET YOURSELF GO
FAME AND FORTUNE

There are a few that look a bit suspect,will wait and run them through EAC or dbpower.

Off to see if i can find this list that other fans put up there cds with cd rot!.
