I Was The One - The Singles Collection

 I Was The One - The Singles Collection

In June 1983 RCA released a follow-up to the "Guitar Man" remix album. This time David Briggs & Tony Brown were responsible for producing the 'I WAS THE ONE' LP.  The album was produced at the House Of David Studios in Nashville, Tennessee in June 1982. 

In some way, the album is comparable with the 'GUITAR MAN' album as completely new backing tracks were recorded just like for the former album. Though this time the producers were in for an even bigger challenge as the tracks chosen for this album dated back to the mid and late 50's while Felton Jarvis had to work with tracks recorded not even 10 years earlier, Briggs and Brown had to work with tracks about 25 years old. Obviously recorded with different techniques.

You love it or you hate it is often said about this album, but a sure thing is that it is part of the Elvis catalogue from the 80's.

   

Now available is this wonderful 45RPM set containing 5 singles/ep's containing all the tracks from the original album on 45rpm and cd. This set is available in Red or Blue vinyl.
