Re: The Boy Named If, new album by Elvis & The Imposters, January 14, 2022

Unsubstantiated rumor has it that EC and the Imposters (along with Charlie Sexton?) have recorded a new album at Magnetic Metallic Studios in Memphis. EC was reported to have mentioned finishing a new album with the Imposters at one of the recent UK dates. The studio has said that the band had booke...

Still playing it. Every play reveals something new and laugh-out-loud good. Whether it's some bit of timed phrasing, the way he changes the vocal effect for particular line, a drum-fill here, a keyboard riff there...good God, there's a John Dryden reference in the first line of 'Mr Crescent'.

Re: The Boy Named If, new album by Elvis & The Imposters, January 14, 2022

I ordered the the vinyl/signed cd book from the UK store in December. I received a confirmation but nothing since. They've not taken the money. I was wondering how others are getting on? I received a shipment confirmation two days ago; however USPS is still not in possession of the item. This is th...

Re: Live music from Elvis on BBC Sounds, November 11, 2021

You will recall that prior to the start of the "Hello Again" tour, Elvis and the Imposters, spent days in the Memphis Magnetic Recording studio , with Sebastian Krys, rehearsing for the tour. Why would they need Sebastian, if not to record? Perhaps the "live" music to air on Ken...

Incredible show in Charlotte tonight. Those looking for a "pure" EC and the Imposters concert, this is the tour for you! Tons of up-tempo numbers, several new songs and new arrangements of classics filled the evening. Elvis was in the best voice I've heard him in years. Amazing what a coup...
