Re: BBC radio reject Elvis song list, Dec. 10
Possibly the Tracks Of My Years feature during the Ken Bruce show. Celebrities select ten favourite tracks which are broadcast two at a time over a week. For each song the celebrity explains why the song is so special for them. To get a feel for how dull the celebrities and their choices are here ar...

Re: Mobile Fidelity to re-release Get Happy
I've got the promo double "EP" set of get happy on vinyl which I think has 5 songs a side ( makes my simple mathematical brain look rather good the way i divided 20 by 4 there !) but I've only played it once since I shelled out a kings ransom for them back in the late 80s at a record fair...

Re: SP&S, NR, and the road ahead...
SP&S wins hands down for me; it was the record that rekindled my interest in Elvis (I have diligently bought every Elvis record as they've come out despite the law of diminishing returns seeming to apply for me until SP&S came out - it took his tour to the UK for me to remove the shrinkwrap,...

Not wishing to nitpick but the interview is actually in today's The Observer, The Guardian's Sunday equivalent. Just in case anyone wants to go and buy a physical copy.

Yes I'm in the UK. Haven't unwrapped the box yet but there is no region information on the package anywhere that I can see. On the rear it just says DVD with CC (Closed Captioning) underneath.

Re: Spectacle (Season One) Blu-Ray/DVD release - 11/10/09 Canada
I ordered it from amazon.ca (it's significantly cheaper there than on amazon.com) on Tuesday evening with the two to four week shipping for a total of C$47.47 (c. £27). It arrived this morning (and there were no customs charges to pay)!sheeptotheslaughter wrote:Is there going to be a UK release? Not seen it anywhere.

Re: Elvis debuting new recording on 7" vinyl
For those in the UK, it can be ordered from hmv.co.uk although it is out of stock at the moment. For those who can't wait and don't mind paying more juno.co.uk had it in stock this morning. Rough Trade might also have it although it isn't on their website - I received a copy from them last week.
