Content: "Elvis: A Legendary Performer Volume 1" opens with his first recording from 1954, "That's All Right (Mama)", the song that started his recording career at Sun Records. Ultimately, four volumes devoted to Presley were released over the next decade in RCA's "A Legendary Performer" series, the only RCA Victor recording artist other than Glenn Miller to have multiple volumes issued in that series. The series is also notable for the first release of several previously unissued recordings by Presley, with each successive volume containing increasing amounts of unreleased material. This first volume included previously unissued live performances of several songs from Presley's 1968 TV special, an alternate version of his first known recording for Sun Records ("I Love You Because"), and the first American release of "Tonight's All Right For Love", previously available only on European pressings of the "G.I. Blues" album. The two interview recordings were originally issued by RCA Victor in 1958 as the EP, "Elvis Sails". Although RCA Victor had released a few alternate takes of Presley studio recordings in the past, for example, two different takes of the song "Old Shep" from his second LP "Elvis" from 1956, and two different takes of the song "Lover Doll" from the soundtrack to the film "King Creole" were released on the official 1958 soundtrack album and the reissue EP "King Creole Volume 1"; this was the first time the company began seriously issuing such material, although releases of alternate takes and unissued recordings by Presley would not begin on a large scale until after his death in August, 1977. "Elvis: A Legendary Performer Volume 3" issued in November 1978, consisted almost entirely of previously unreleased recordings. The 1989 "BMG Records" compact disc version was truncated and removed "I Love You Because", "Love Me", "Love Me Tender", "(Now And Then There's) A Fool Such As I," and "Are You Lonesome Tonight". The version of "Trying To Get To You" was replaced by Elvis' 1955 Sun Recording.
