I’m not a huge audiophile. I’m also not a huge Elvis Presley fan (though I’m told I do a pretty good imitation). I like many of his songs and own the Elvis 56 CD compilation that was produced in 1996 which I feel is one of the best compilations ever made.

This video showing the process of digitally transfering Elvis’ first recording at Sun Studios marks a milestone in music history.

There’s so much character in the recording from the pops and sizzles of the acetate to the full sound that only vinyl can capture. Wow.
