As a FTD Collector since 1999 YES PLEASE absolutely👍 It would be helpful to mention technical errors during the remastering by FTD, wrong Takenumbers / Takes or too fast Tape Speed on some Live-Shows and whether there are any correction Replacement CD's available. Thank You David btw the Video Picture Quality is good!

Very good idea and you answered my only reservation..which would be how to keep it updated..Maybe like Presleyanna..but not waiting years for another release..Come to think of it there wouldn’t be too much to add into the vinyl section of late as production has slowed tremendously from the glory days of four a year..I’d be very interested to see how it evolves David

That's a good idea and as an added bonus is to put them in a slipcase. Was at my local record store Red Eye Records and pick up Elvis Your the Devil In Disguise session. They were having a 20% off inshore only. Annoyed at the young teenagers as a bit of a crowd. They were buying vinyl. And yes , I'm on catch up mode as well.🤔😊

Brilliant looking books David and having in that format would be much easier to use than the heavy book set.

I would definitely purchase a book like this

Even if I’m far from having that amount of FTDs, I think these books are useful and will be appreciated by many, just an opinion. Is great work⚡️ About the video, whites are white ok and now maybe just a tad more brightness, or better, a soft light spot just in front of you (diffuse light). Thanks for the video and おはようございます☀ there.

David. I would definitely be interested in the books! Not buying much anymore in the way of new releases from FTD, no LPs, No DVDs either. Only things that are new and haven’t been released multiple times over the 47 yrs since Elvis’ death. Would only buy English versions

OK, thank you for your feedback.

I’d buy both volumes David. My only requested change would be to put the releases in order they were released regardless of packaging size but keep the vinyl and books in their own category. 👍🏼👍🏼

Hi David, I have stopped buying books quite a few years ago and I probably would not consider buying these. Books are expensive and time to read is scarce. I rather invest my budget in my vinyl collection.

Thanks for the feedback. Printing one big book in Japan would, strangely, be more expensive than printing two smaller ones. We may get some more quotes for one book but the plan at the moment is for two. And thanks for letting me know about the video. It seems a bit dark to me too.

Hi David , I would love to have them but just make a bigger book.

Hi Dave ,I,d definitely be interested in these books being done with English text ,I really like the FTD release especially the vinyl I’ve only got a few but looking to get more ,just the price of them is ridiculous really ,I recently seen ,EL is back on eBay for £900 pounds can you believe that ,that’s barmy for me ,blue Hawaii also is really expensive ,but these books look the biz for me ,take care ,tony

It's amazing the prices the FTD LPs go for. You can get several original albums for less. They're very classy records, though.

I like the idea of books if it has information not readily available on the CDs of vinyl themselves or from other easily accessible sources. How much additional information is included besides the track listing? I’d be interested in knowing things like how many copies were made of each CD, how many times was it repressed, when was it deleted, where the material was sourced from, were there problems with CDs that had to be replaced. Was there a reissue with changes to either the material on the CD or the jackets. Any bits of information that were not included on the original release would interest me.

Great feedback. Thanks a lot!

Discographies are a favourite of mine. On many artists too. There has been a comprehensive book on FTD releases. Unsure if I'd buy this translated version you speak of. So many now and still being released the book would not be complete. Still many would buy it. You know anything with Elvis' name and likeness sells. I'm more selective. As a side note, Japanese records too are the least favourite of mine preferring records with the latin/roman typeface. Strange, I'm also drawn in by the presentation, unsure if I liked the books you showed.

There was a 3-volume set of FTD books, but it's been many years since it was published, and it was a very expensive item. We're considering something a little more straightforward. Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for sharing David, I'd be in, particularly if you're going to bring it right up to 2024, as the Lorentzen set is very out of date now. The video did look a little too dark btw

Thanks for the feedback! Yes, I think FTD has released more titles in 25 years than RCA did in the same period from 1956.
