 Elvis: The 1968 TV Special Recordings  I & II - ALHECODE Records

ALHECODE Records presents Elvis: The 1968 TV Special Recordings Volume 1 & 2, a great collection of alternate recordings from the legendary TV special!

None of these recordings are included on offical cd's (like on the official 1968 Comeback boxset), so these are a great addition to make your collection complete.

All recordings are presented in the best possible sound! For the first time together on 2 great albums! Outtakes, instrumental versions, radio spots...

Enjoy these alternate recordings like never before!

Both cd's are Elvis fan only releases and released in limited quantities.
