For instance, it is generally known that Bob Dylan has sold an incredible amount of 90 million albums in his whole career. But Bob has been selling records since the early sixties (more than 40 years) and he has a...

Almost a year after the release of The Delivery Man, EC has stopped touring this record (except for some dates in october). Does anyone know how many albums could have been sold up till now? Does ayone have access to the SoundScan sales figures? And would the sales through the internet (iTunes) be s...

The word from his sound engineer was that Elvis is touring extensively this year to put the money together to tour Il Sogno next year. Although I have no reason to doubt this sound engineer, this seems a little strange to me. Would EC really pay for his own (classical) tour? And would he put that a...

3) He did a different verse at the end of Pump It Up. Am I imagining this? He has been tagging the 'Stones song The Last Time onto this song in shows all year . It's possible use yesterday is especially ironic in that Cornbury could indeed be Elvis' last show in the U.K. for a very long time , what...
