Notes:  314 pages hardcover book with included CD.

Elvis Presley CD FTD Label

Announement:
David English and Pal Granlund being the ultimate background story into how the fabulous musical starring Elvis Presley and Ann-Margret was created.
This hard back 400-page book gives a fascinating insight from script to screen.

The Book:

  • Two hundred and fifty newly discovered images, including wardrobe stills
  • Memo's, contracts and pages from Director George Sidney's personal script
  • Soundtrack recording session documents
  • Memories from the cast & crew
  • The shooting schedule, filming dates and locations revealed for the first time
  • Exclusive Warner Bros interview on the film restoration of Viva Las Vegas
  • Book includes a deluxe slipcase

Audio:

  • The first official release of the original soundtrack in mono
  • The original conceived 1963 studio album
  • Bonus songs from the soundtrack & newly discovered songwriters' demos
     
Extra Note:  From Elvis Information Network / Elvis News:
The Viva Las Vegas Box has an (not audible) issue with the division in tracks.
On disc 1, track 3 bleeds into track 4. If You Think I Don't Need You includes 15 seconds of I Need Somebody To Lean On.
This means track 4 begins 15 seconds into I Need Somebody To Lean On.
Not a real problem when you just play the CD, but it is a bloody shame that expensive products like these have so little quality.
