With the 2CD FTD
�Raised On Rock�, Ernst Jorgenson may have
delivered the very best classic FTD release
ever. The Stax session have always been special
to many fans, and with this double CD, the
collector�s label is really spoiling us. Listen
to Elvis as he works on the numbers until he�s
satisfied (or not), hear him give instructions,
hear him laugh, curse, comment� Even �It�s
Different Now�, earlier released on the 5 CD set
The Seventies Masters sounds different here,
with Elvis talking over the instrumental part of
the song. Other tracks of interest are the
instrumental versions of �The Wonders You
Perform�, �Color My Rainbow� and �Good Bad But
Beautiful�. Sadly, Elvis left the Stax studio in
a fit of anger when he discovered that his
microphone was stolen. With Elvis back at
Graceland, the musicians killed the time by
recording these tracks, hoping for Elvis to
return � which he didn�t. We�ll never hear
Elvis�s version, but to give you at least an
idea of the vocals, click the link below to hear
Ronnie Hilton�s version of �Good Bad But
Beautiful�
