Never was a great [[Elvis Presley|Presley]] fan myself, but anyone who makes records that sound as fresh 20 years on (Hound Dog, Heartbreak Hotel…) has got something pretty special. Still, I must agree with one of J. Rotten’s comments that his gut has cast a shadow over rock recently. Think I’ll stick to the Sun recordings & early RCA records. (Look what happens when you join the army!) The saddest thing about this whole Elvismania trip is the sudden demand for anything remotely connected with Presley. Where were these ghoulish collectors when we was alive (obese & releasing nondescript music, for sure but still here) & needed a final shove back to rock. | |||
What’s even worse is the proliferation of ‘tributes’ ; Dross like “I remember Elvis’ makes me sick. If you really want to remember him, go out & buy some of his early albums (not film soundtracks) or check out the later compliations such as ’40 Greatest Hits’ which has all the good (& not-so-good) stuff he ever did for RCA. | |||
