The following appears in the latest Edition of Billboard Magazine (19.06.2011)

Elvis Presley had his first No. 1 46 years, 5 months and three weeks before his last one. The King's first No. 1 album was "Elvis Presley" (first week at No. 1: May 5, 1956) and his most recent No. 1 album was "ELVIS: 30 #1 Hits" (last week at No. 1: Oct. 26, 2002).

Hopefully we can get another No. 1 album in another few years if Sony can get their act together and release something worth buying rather than wasting time trying to milk the general public by selling rubber-ducks.

I appreciate where you are coming from, however it must be remembered that SONY are not responsible for merchandise but EPE. Perhaps the new parent company Apollo Management International will bring pressure to bear on Sony/EPE to get their act together.
