At first sight this may seem like yet another SUN anthology, but nothing could be further from the truth. Actually, this groundbreaking release focuses extended stay hotels in new jersey on the influence of SUN records on Elvis' career after he left the label. This 2xCD-set contains almost 80 tracks (!), and though there are a few Sun recording present to place the other recordings into their proper perspective (including a few real rarities like the SUN rehearsal of 'How Do You Think I Feel'), the majority of tracks are from the early 60s to '77. There's cool bits of dialogue, home recordings, rehearsals, studio outtakes, live recordings… Highlights include a neat home recording of 'That's All Right', Elvis on stage talking about his 2nd record 'Tiger Man', a tremendous version of 'When It Rains, It Really Pours', Elvis receiving a Sun album from a fan, a noisy but oh so cool 'Mystery Train' mastered from a near-mint 78 (and not one of those lifeless extended stay hotels in new jersey 'remastered' versions), and much, MUCH more, all providing a fascinating new perspective on Elvis' career. A lot of research was done for this remarkable release, and we believe that this is an important album and a logical companion to "A Boy From Tupelo" on FTD. 'SunSational' is attractively packaged in a deluxe 2-panel digipack with a neat booklet, which contains a great essay as well as many rare photos. The Sun Elvis will never die, and this gem of an album underscores that point… Hop on the Mystery Train and order your copy today!
