Elvis Country : Elvis Presley's Concept Album

Harley Payette explains why he thinks that the I'm 10,000 Years Old : Elvis Country' album 'tells us as much about the man who created it as anything he ever did'. In January 1971, RCA records slipped its latest Elvis Presley LP on the market, not two months after the previous one. That record, 'I'm 10,000 Years Old: Elvis Country', the singer's 30th of original material (excluding live collections, compilations and greatest hits sets), wasn't just another Elvis LP. It was an honest to gosh concept LP. The songs were not only linked stylistically and thematically, but all the performances were linked by splices of a song interspersed between each number. Even the cover wasn't the usual head shot of a smiling Elvis, concert pose, or movie still. In their place was a sepia toned photo of a very familiar looking young boy, Elvis Presley aged two.

Didn't Have To Die

In this work of speculative fiction, Shawn Poole ponders the possibilities of what could have been if Bruce Springsteen had gotten to meet Elvis Presley before August 16, 1977. Might things have turned out any differently for either or both of them? Poignantly reminding us of the promise and potential that tragically disappeared in that long ago summer. Memphis, Tennessee was sweltering in the mid-July heat.

Review : Elvis Country : Legacy Edition

Before looking at the actual 'Elvis Country'/'Love Letters' albums I would like to address this particular release, the Legacy Edition, as the albums are currently available in more than one format. And also a brief look at the other titles released in the series so far. This is because I had my doubts about this release.

Review : Elvis (Fool) : FTD Special Edition 2 CD

I sometimes 'cheat' when I receive a classic album from FTD, playing the second disc with the outtakes first. Elvis (Fool) was no exception. I love the feeling of 'being thrown' into the studio, and this time around the first thing I heard was James Burton and Chip Young picking out the intro to '(That's What You Get) For Lovin' Me' and Felton Jarvis asking drummer Jerry Carrigan something about which cymbal he'll use ...

Elvis Song in British BMW TV Commercial

We have another

TV ad featuring the music of Elvis Presley, this time BMW with the launch of their new 3 Series. 'What all winners have in common is joy'. That's the baseline for the new BMW '3 Series' TV ads. The clip that currently promotes the new BMW cars on UK television, comes with the remix of Elvis' A Little Less Conversation. It just shows once again that you can't keep a good song down. This makes it the tenth in the past year and we congratulate EPE for allowing the use and in effect providing very clever marketing.
