FTD Special 3 CD Deluxe Edition

- In-depth review by Piers Beagley -

When seeking Elvis' key career highpoints, if one goes by the sales and the audience viewing numbers, there is only one answer. Aloha From Hawaii Via Satellite.
- RCA’s double album of the show was released throughout the world in February 1973 and shot to the #1 spot in many countries including the U.S. It is certified 5x Platinum by the RIAA.

To acknowledge this achievement, FTD is proud to present an upgraded re-release of Aloha From Hawaii Via Satellite utilizing the talents of successful Memphian recording engineer Matt-Ross Spang who has newly remixed the original broadcasted show and the after-concert 3:00 AM crowd-less masters including rehearsal performances for the first time.

Below EIN's Piers Beagley checks out this new set to see whether it is really worth buying one more time....

The crying infant and smashing television sets in "One of My Turns" sit in distinct pockets of the soundstage.

The format is crucial here. Unlike compressed formats (MP3), FLAC retains 100% of the original audio data. When delivered at 88.2 kHz/24-bit, the file captures a significantly higher resolution than standard CD quality (44.1 kHz/16-bit). What makes the 88.2 kHz format special?

In high-resolution audio, engineers prefer 88.2 kHz over 96 kHz when upsampling or archiving standard CD-quality assets. Because 88.2 is a perfect mathematical multiple of 44.1 (44.1 x 2), the digital audio workstation can double the samples perfectly without introducing interpolation errors or mathematical rounding artifacts. This mathematical symmetry preserves the absolute integrity of the original waveform transients. The Sonic Architecture of The Wall in High-Res

If you are looking for specific streaming platforms or places to buy this high-resolution version, I can help you find that information. Or, are you interested in knowing how this 2007 version compares to the later 2011/2021 remasters? Pink Floyd The Wall Remasters - Head-Fi

“Crazy... toys in the attic I am crazy...” Pink Floyd - The Wall -2007 Remaster- -FLAC- 88

A word of caution: The internet is flooded with "FLAC" files that are simply upscaled MP3s. To ensure you have the genuine 2007 Remaster at 88.2 kHz:

The 2007 Remaster of The Wall in is not just a file; it is an archival restoration. It is the closest you will ever get to sitting in James Guthrie’s chair at the console, listening to the original 2-track master roll off the tape machine.

Pink Floyd's iconic rock opera, "The Wall," has been a cornerstone of progressive rock for decades. Released in 1979, this concept album tells the story of Pink, a fictional rock star struggling with isolation, mental health, and the effects of war. The album's themes of disillusionment, rebellion, and the blurring of reality and fantasy continue to resonate with listeners today. In 2007, "The Wall" was remastered and released in FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) format, offering a new level of sonic fidelity to fans. This article explores the significance of "The Wall" and what the 2007 remastered FLAC edition brings to the table.

Standard CDs utilize 16-bit audio, which offers 96 dB of dynamic range. A 24-bit depth expands this to 144 dB. This is crucial for The Wall , an album that jumps from whispered dialogue to exploding dive-bombers and heavy guitar riffs. The crying infant and smashing television sets in

This article explores why the 2007 remaster of The Wall is considered a pinnacle for audiophiles and how the FLAC 88.2 kHz format enhances the listening experience. 1. The Context: Why Remaster The Wall?

Nick Mason's kick drum and Roger Waters' precision basslines often anchor the bottom end of the mix. In standard resolution, dense tracks like "Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2)" can suffer from lower-midrange crowding. The high-resolution FLAC space separates the disco-influenced bass groove from the rhythm guitar scratches, allowing both to breathe independently. David Gilmour’s Guitar Transients

When you see a file tagged as , it reveals critical technical details about how the audio was encoded and stored. Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC)

If you are reading this, you likely already know the narrative. You know about the bricks, the trial, the teacher, and the hammer. You know the soaring despair of Comfortably Numb and the mechanical rage of In the Flesh? But knowing the story of Pink Floyd’s The Wall and hearing it are two vastly different experiences. Enter the presented in FLAC 88.2 kHz . This isn’t just a digital file; it is an architectural restoration of one of rock’s most claustrophobic masterpieces. When delivered at 88

The opening tracks display a massive soundstage. The high-res format allows you to hear the precise placement of the brass instruments and the crispness of the drums.

Breaking Down "The Wall": The 2007 High-Res Remaster Experience

The 2007 designation generally traces back to two distinct sources in the audiophile community:

'The Elvis Is Back! Sessions' Deluxe FTD Review: Released by FTD back in December 2019 'The Elvis Is Back! Sessions' is a 4-CD deluxe set released to celebrate its 60th Anniversary year. Hailed by many as Elvis’ finest recordings, for the first time here are all the songs as recorded in sequence. Included are all the RCA outtakes and masters.
The release includes a deluxe 28-page booklet and fold-out CD carrier adorned with beautiful portraits, rare photos, insightful essay, recording data and classic memorabilia.
The 28-page booklet includes rare photographs, memorabilia, session data, plus essay by Alan Hanson. The set includes new outakes from songs such as 'Make Me Know It' , 'Soldier Boy', 'Mess Of Blues', 'Fame And Fortune' and 'Girl Of My Best Friend'. All the tracks are newly restored and remastered by Sebastian Jeansson.
But with the vast majority of this studio session having already been released by FTD, can yet another 'Elvis IS Back!' set really be worth purchasing all over again?
EIN's Piers Beagley investigates this massive set and finds plenty of new delights

‘TTWII 50th Anniversary Collectors Edition’ FTD Book Review: FTD's most expensive set ever published, David English and Pal Granlund bring the complete background story of 'Elvis: That's The Way It Is'. Celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the movie's 1970 release, this ultimate collector's edition includes two hardback books, eight cds with over 450 minutes of music, including newly discovered unreleased performances.
With access to 2,000 original negatives and 35mm slides, restored and repaired, many of which have never been seen before, the book also contains items from the MGM and RCA archives including paperwork, documents, memos and recording information.
Two books, 600 pages, plus all the MGM recorded rehearsals - including 70 tracks officially unreleased.
FTD's most expensive set but with the vast majority of the rehearsals already out on bootleg, can it really be worth the US$270 plus postage. Initially Sold Out and already into its first reprint what makes it so desirable?

'The Fun In Acapulco Sessions' Deluxe FTD Review: Released by FTD back in March 'The Fun In Acapulco Sessions' is a 3-CD set that the publicity noted included more than an hour of previously unreleased false starts and complete takes!
The 28-page booklet includes rare photographs, memorabilia, session data, Movie Trivia and an updated overview of the movie by Alan Hanson - with all tracks recently remixed and remastered.
A Mexican locale, some Tijuana horns, plus the interesting presence of the Mexican ‘Amigos’ at the recording sessions presented a novel setting for Elvis.
If you like Elvis, sunny locations, sixties movies packed full of songs and the Latino sound then there is no doubt that Fun In Acapulco must be one of your favourites.
But 56 years after the original album and movie can there really be that much of interest left in the vault unreleased?
EIN's Piers Beagley investigates this massive set, discovers all the Previously Unreleased Delights - and wonders if 33 minutes of Guadalajara might be too much for some...
A FTD Deluxe set deserves a proper review and EIN gives you 4000 words plus to see if you really need to add this limited release to your collection!

‘Elvis Is Back!’ (FTD "Classic Album" Review): In early 1960 Elvis Presley’s future career would hinge on just two night’s recording sessions. Had Elvis not created such quintessential million-selling music on these two crucial nights he could have been relegated to the fifties rock’n’roll vaults along with Bill Haley and the like. EIN explores the new double deluxe FTD release to discover why it is an essential purchase. (FTD Review, Source: EIN, 1 June 2005) Pink Floyd - The Wall -2007 Remaster- -FLAC- 88
