Pip and Sulky......I totally agree. I hated trying to pick out ten favourite songs when there probably aren't even ten songs of Elvis' I dislike. (Actually that would be pretty easy by just saying Ana Solfie/For the Stars or whatever it was. But whatever it was, it was soooo awful.) Maybe I could li...

Re: Just stop already!

Sweet Pear, I don't want to be rude but would you please do us all a big favour and STOP talking about Bebe Buell every five seconds? Us old timers have had enough. If you feel like you feel, great. But really,love, this has nothing to do with Elvis in the now or Bebe for that matter. Just let them...

I think it sounds very sincere, and is very well executed for what it is. But, that, is a little one-dimensional, which is my complaint with Alison, So Like Candy and others - practically no insight is revealed into the girl by as much as a word, a bit of dialogue, so it's just about his sentiment ...

High Water that sounds kind of sarcastic. Did you intend it to?

Ouch is right, Plaything! The only Elvis fans who would read Buell's book are those who are only interested in how great a shag he was (I'm talking about the ladee fans here, the men, I don't know). From what I've heard and read, that and the fact that she still loves him, is all she talks about. I ...

Oh it's not just you Goody. Elvis is sooo sexy esp. when he was younger and had all that attitude. Attitude but yet his songs had such a sexy vulnerability. This pic of him is kind of scarey. No, not scarey, amusing. He looks like he's coming to get you and you're gonna get a spanking! Hmmm, 'nuff s...

Tonight at Noon / Mingus
(I had the pleasure of seeing Elvis at Bard and
he sounded and looked better than ever.
The Mingus orchestra was amazing.)

Girls, Girls, Girls - Disc 1 (over and over and over)


Audioslave (fantastic disc!)
