The Complete Elvis Presley Masters is a box set covering most of Elvis Presley's entire recording career, released on October 19, 2010 by RCA Records/Legacy Recordings.[1] The box set contains 711 original master recordings as recorded during Elvis' lifetime, and also 103 additional rare recordings, contained on 30 compact discs. The set, however, omits the recordings made for the 1977 Elvis in Concert TV special and album.[2]

This boxset is not to be confused with the Franklin Mint compilation Elvis: The Complete Masters Collection,[3][4] which does not contain the rare recordings or a chronological sequencing of the songs but does come with a replica of Elvis's first 7" single.

Track listing

The boxed-set also features a 240–page hardcover book with complete discography produced exclusively for this collection; researched and written by Ernst Jørgensen and Peter Guralnick. Plus, an individually numbered certificate of authenticity.
