Oh yes indeed...it's ELVIS once more.....and why not, are ye an unbeliever or some such perchance???? GRRRRRR
....then ye must die.....
And what do we have here??
Weeeeeelllll....it's ELVIS....candidly in the studio, performing many rarities....and also LIVE on air....you think Radio
sessions are a post punk/Indie thing??....Wel...NO SIREE!....Like everything else in Rock'n'Roll, these were pioneered
by ELVIS HIMSELF....as he prowled the South, becoming bigger and bigger in that phenomenal year of 1955....growing
from a rumour...to a local hit phenomenon....to taking over THE WORLD!!!!!
Early takes/alternative versions of many of his breakthrough Country/R&B Chart hits....join audio verite moments in the
creation of a legend....and snapshots of his LIVE repertoire which drove the CATS and CHICKS WILD!!!!!
With versions of his favourite country and R&B songs, many of which were slated for SUN Records sessions which
were superceded by his rise to superstardom...and thus never got recorded.... performed to rabid fans in a full on style
unheard by most people outside MEMPHIS 1955.....
So many releases are called something like "The Birth Of A Legend."...
Well....here's literally The Birth Of...THE Legend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ladies and Gentlemen, ELVIS enters the building.....
- Follow the very progress of ELVIS as he jumps from Hillbilly Cat to KING OF ROCK'n'ROLL!!!!
- Beautifully remastered in technicolor RevOla style....
- ....and lavishly packaged with memorabilia of that tumultuous, nay, SEISMIC year in the history of....THE WORLD!!!!!
.....and the rise of ELVIS!!!!
