TOO MUCH MONKEY BUSINESS: The Elvis Forum

My new Elvis DVD: the Complete 50's TV shows (image & sound restored)

contains all the songs of:
1- Dorsey shows
2- Steve Allen show
3- Berlie shows
4- Ed Sullivan shows
5- Sinatra timex show

dubbed with the RCA CD sound
and the best image abailable

it is TERIFIC, and is so good to see it conected to my HI-FI system

Sounds great, would love to see it !

yes the sound it is from the gold box cds

What's with the Sinatra Timex being on a complete 50's set? That must be the bonus feature lol.

Would loved to have seen a complete 50's TV show DVD though rather than just the popular stuff. Wink Martindale etc.

Yes the Sinatra is from the 60's but the 2 songs are included at the end of the DVD.
So, This DVD was made by an spanish elvis fan, with his PC and all his elvis material he got for more than 20 years

Felicidades!

I think the Milton Berle show from June 5 1956 was the best tv show with a marvelous version of Hound Dog.
It is available on DVD. I wished it was released with the same quality as the Ed Sullivan Shows.

Here an extended version of Hound dog from this show.



Ben made a while ago a list of 50's footage.

Yes but this links are from youtube and are ripped and the dvd have more quality

Your whole post is weird, so OK you got this great DVD ... and? and you posted the same thing on FECC .... it looks more like a pitch (sp?)

It is not a pich, the DVD was made by a spansh Elvis fan with his PC, and his material of Elvis that he collected for more than 20ny years, and it's GREAT, and i'm sure that the cost don't pay the hours this fan utils to do it. and the material is not from youtube because the qualty is much better.
have a nice day

are only 2 or 3 songs from the VHS version, but with cd sound, the rest are in a perfect quallty, the berlie hound dog are perfect and with the digital sound, the "i want you , i need you , i love you" from the same show are not in a great condition but with the digital sound, the rest of the DVD it's in a perfect quallity and the versions are not from the youtube because i downloaded it and i compared it with the DVD. and it is very ejoyable to hear the dueto with sinatra and the rest of the show in a good image quality with digital sound.

The DVD is tituled: ELVIS THE COMPLETE EARLY TV SHOWS, and everybody can buy it, so you have to email the author, i med him in a elvis reunion fan club in spain , hear is the personal email if you want:

That's an elusive bit of footage, & I've never seen a good quality version of it.................

How did they get great digital sound from a TV show that only existed in 16mm back up quality in the first place? Iknow there's some great audio folks out there, but even so.... was they a seperate source for audio at the time?

anyone who knows how to edit and mix sound can put this together and not all the Dorsey Shows are in best quality

They may well exist in pristine condition !

Mostly, all we've had is 'unofficial' releases which probably don't have access to best quality source footage.

I'm still waiting for a 'proper' release of all the other stuff in similar quality to the Sullivan one !

They better hurry up and release it. Some of us may never see this stuff.

I'm not going until I've seen it & that's final !

And we are unanymous (sp) on that

Boy, I'm impressed with your control, or is it influence? Tell me the secret please.

There's nothing we haven't seen before. We, the first and near first
generation of fans had a chance to see part on super 8 in the 70s, at
conventions from 16mm film ( thanks to Rex Martin and Vic Colonna),
in the 2nd half of the seventies. More was added in the 80s onto video,
and a hundred plus dvd titles in the last 10 years...
Ive seen it, and I don't need more amateur dvd's. Not now not ever.

Colin, these shows were live and were broadcast in that tri-colour medium that I've forgotten the name of, though I know you know what it's called.
The black and white releases are effectively a token copy of the broadcasts and I don't see how such a thing as a pristine version can exist. Please bring me up to date if there's been recent developments in the past few years

When I said 'pristine' I meant as good as the best ones we've had already !

The guy who invented the 'video feed' offered a couple of the Dorsey Shows a while back, & they were in great quality !

The primitive colour system you're thinking of was 'lenticular' but not all the fifties Elvis TV stuff used that.

Lenticular!!!!Thats the one. Ok, thanks for the update.

HALLO ALL, of course the all DVD is not in a perfect quality but almost all.
I can say it is in the best quality abailable at this moment, and i can tell it for sure, because i have many documentarys of the 50s Elvis era because for me are the best Elvis years.
and ALL the sound of the DVD is from the digital CDs.
So you have the same problem i had: see it to belive it, but there is not problem really, I have send a eMail to the author: (albertcanadell1@telefonica.net) and he was invite me at his DROPBOX acount to se a demo of the DVD, I see it, i like it, i buy it, and now i'm ejoying it and that's all , But of course I respect several opinions.
and this fool guy tols me he is preparing A BOOM DVD. something like that:

1- love me tender movie songs colorized version and stereo sound from CDs
2- Loving you songs WITH REMASTERIZED STEREO SOUND.
3- jailhouse rock colorized version movie songs with binaural sound.
4- GI blues movie songs with FULL STEREO version and for example uncut versions lke frankfurt special (CD song is much longer than the DVD version)
I sow demos from the DROPBOX, and i like specialy :
1-Teddy bear in STEREO
2-and my faborite, Men woman blues binaural version, you will see Evis Jumping and dancing arround you're living room like a thunder or a storm.
all the images in DVD quality, he wants to do the 33 Elvis movies with STEREO sound and perfect image
he has the fits 4th movies, i'm asking to Albert when gonna finish it, and he says, not late.

while Albert is at it, ask him if he can do all the interviews in STEREO as well.
He's a bussy little bugger, isn't he?!
