The Essential Masters
Als verzamelaars het hebben over “The Essential Masters boxen”, bedoelen ze meestal deze drie uitgaven:
The Complete 50s Masters (1992), The Essential 60s Masters (1993) en The Essential 70s Masters (1995).
Samen vormen ze een indrukwekkend overzicht van 15 cd’s met Elvis’ belangrijkste werk uit drie decennia, allemaal prachtig geremasterd en verpakt in luxe box op lp formaat of later in boekstijl.
