Review - Elvis Ultimate Gospel CD
Ultimate Gospel; Elvis Presley, Music from the King-to-the-Lord, Enjoyed by an Elvis-fan and Believer. It's just a couple of months ago that I purchased another album of his again. It was Elvis Ultimate Gospel. This was released in 2004. It's said that 'To sing once is to pray twice'. Elvis did that and more with his incredible voice. I believe this selection of Gospel music including revival rock, solemn hymns and traditional church numbers is an example of the gifts God gives to particular people in this world. Elvis had the gift to sing. Thankfully it is shared with us on albums such as Ultimate Gospel.
Elvis' Generosity
Elvis Presley was a generous man. Not only to those who worked for him, his family and friends, but often to strangers and regular gifts to charities, both national and local. Christmas time every year Elvis would donate around $100,000 to organized charities.
The twister that made Tupelo famous
A twister brought national attention to Tupelo, Miss., long before its favorite son, Elvis Aron Presley, wiggled his way to fame on the Ed Sullivan Show. In fact, Elvis, born on Jan. 8, 1935, was just barely a toddler when an F-5 tornado roared through his hometown 70 years ago today, claiming the lives of 233 people. It was one of the deadliest tornadoes in U.S. history.
Is The Trouble With Girls Elvis' most underrated movie?
For reasons I cannot entirely fathom, I have been increasingly drawn, in the past year, to The Trouble With Girls on DVD. One of Elvis' late, neglected movies - released in the U.S. on a double bill with a cheesy horror flick called The Green Slime - it was shot when his hopes of being the next James Dean had been virtually extinguished. Yet the King seems more animated than usual on celluloid - certainly more engaged than he is, in, say Paradise Hawaiian Style - and utterly at home in this small town period piece.
Review - The Rough Guide To Elvis Book

Review : Suspicious Minds : The Memphis 69 Anthology CD
In all but a few, minor matters, I find this release extremely satisfying. It is very nice to have all this material gathered in one release and as the sound is excellent, the packing is almost flawless and you get a whole slew of interesting bonus tracks who could ask for more? This is Elvis at an absolute peak, and Elvis- vise or even music-vise it doesn't come any better.

Who else has Elvis treasures?
Rare. Never-before-seen. Wow! That's how a newly discovered photo of Elvis Presley was described in Thursday's Herald. Reading the Associated Press article over breakfast, and seeing the 1972 image of a caped King of Rock 'n' Roll at Madison Square Garden in New York, I had to laugh. Then I had to go check. Yep, Elvis was still in the house. Before leaving for work, I managed to find my prized Presley picture. It was tucked in an envelope of photos of my late father-in-law, David Muhlstein.

Billboard are wrong : Elvis Presley Record Chart Statistics Clarification
This week it has been reported that Mariah Carey has surpassed Elvis Presley as the solo artist with the most No. 1 singles on Billboard's U.S Top 100 chart. EPE (and Elvis Australia) claim that Elvis had, in fact, 18 No. 1 singles, meaning Carey would have simply tied with Elvis. The confusion lies with the 1956 chart-toppers Don't Be Cruel and Hound Dog. EPE (correctly) lists the two songs as separate No. 1 singles. In the 1950's and 1960's Billboard counted record sales and Jukebox plays of both sides of a single. Also in the case of Hound Dog and Don't Be Cruel there were two different covers issued allowing for which ever was asked for at the counter. One had Hound Dog / Don't Be Cruel the other the reverse Don't Be Cruel / Hound Dog.
Elvis Sings ... CD
Elvis Sings ... is a double CD containing a nice collection of 67 'theme songs' recorded by Elvis. Elvis sings- Beatles songs, Hawaiian songs and even Beethoven. Surprised?

Among them are names from different music genres like Arthur Crudup, Bill Monroe, Hank Williams, Chuck Berry, Ray Charles, Bob Dylan, John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison from The Beatles, Kris Kristofferson and of course some of Little Richard's songs. We have a preview of 8 pages from the booklet.
Review : Cancelled: The Request Box 2 CD Set
This is a fantastic, much needed upgrade of some truly different and inspired shows. There is no doubt that this season was one of the most interesting he ever gave for its rare performances and random set-lists, which in my opinion makes this an essential release for everyone who appreciates live shows. Only one thing left to say-get it while you can!

On Monday, Graceland opened a trio of new historical exhibits, including one focusing on Elvis Presley's 1968 Comeback Special, and another called 'Private Presley'.

Here, Priscilla talks about the exhibit, her memories of the era, and a side of Elvis that few knew.

Review: Viva Las Vegas FTD CD
1964 was a very busy year for Elvis Presley. Three movies, two soundtracks, one EP, assorted singles, his pursuit of Priscilla, and a public affair left very little time for anything else. Viva Las Vegas was one of Elvis’ best movies that did not have a complete soundtrack release at the time. That oversight has now been corrected. This release of the movie soundtrack by FTD in their Special Edition Movie Soundtrack series features improved re-mastering of both the original LP and the bonus alternate takes and much more....

The 'parade' footage is good to see as it puts you in the right context with color and b&w footage. The interviews of Elvis' Parents are well worth hearing too. The afternoon show footage is wonderful and electrifying : Here is Elvis in his prime rocking and rolling in front of 11.000 people. Highly recommended.
