elvis is still king.
In FINE form tonight on the webcast… screaming “bring the boys home, bring the boys home” at the end of “(What’s So Funny ‘Bout) Peace, Love And Understanding”. “All you people at home…I know you’re anxious to get back to looking at porn..”
“The River In Reverse” has to be one of the best Elvis tunes in years….not that we’ve really been lacking in that department.
First Rykodisc reissued his album, then Rhino took a wonderful track….now, Universal owns the rights and they’re reissuing without bonus material. Pretty sad. They just issued another Best Of Collection (The First Ten Years) and a great little collection called “Rock & Roll Music”.
“Rock & Roll Music” has one HELL of a track listing. “The Best Of” is the same as every other Costello best of that you own.
