Elvis Presley Fans?


How many of you are Elvis fans My mom grew up during his era of fame and always played his music when I was growing up. I enjoy almost every song he ever performed.

I just picked a Japanese Vinyl Box set called For Elvis, for Japanese Fans Only, many of his live recording mixed in with old hits on Japanese vinyl remastered. Sounds fantastic!
My wife and I were at night of 100 Elvis's last night. This is no joke.  Good stuff!    Some good performers and very good sound quality even.  A Paul McCartney also showed up and performed.   Lots of fun.  Thank you very much!  👏👏👏
I admit to being very envious of you guy's that have visited Graceland and Sun Studios, along with other stories of Elvis. For me, he has always stood above all others for his vocal ability and creative control of the music they all made. Some great clarification above on his vocal range, thanks for that :-). I get pretty defensive when people, usually young uns here in England dismiss him for how he became towards the end with little or no attempt to understand how and why he became the world biggest and first real superstar. And when I read that he was a fair singer, well lets just leave that til we meet eh? Elvis Presley will not be surpassed, that I can promise you..
The Sun Sessions and the 50's Masters box are well worth having.  Some of the stuff from the 60's is good, but it's scattered around different collections.  The 60's Masters, for instance, does not have the movie music or his gospel stuff.  A cheaper way to go is The Top Ten Hits (meaning, his singles that made the Top Ten List), a 2-CD set.  The Number One Hits is a good CD but leaves off too many good songs that didn't quite hit #1.   A combo of The Sun Sessions and The Top Ten Hits is easy on the pocketbook and surprisingly complete.
