Wow, this really takes the cake - and the biscuit! I hope it leads to some sales for him.

Re: The Boy Named If, new album by Elvis & The Imposters, January 14, 2022
I too am really looking forward to this - but I have to confess I'm surprised at the fact that 'Paint the Red Rose Blue' has been released as a lead track for radio play. We all know Elvis is a fantastic writer of sad songs, but I don't think this one scales his usual heights. That's not to say it's...

LOL, I have to say I've never been a particular fan of Elvis's artwork, either, but I guess it's MEANT to be ugly. I think it has worked well in recent videos, but enough is probably enough now, I reckon! That said, with straitened circumstances these days cos no-one buys CDs, I guess its cheaper fo...

Re: "The Last Year of My Youth" on its way?
It's funny, I can't quite get a handle on this song - certainly from this performance. There's a kind of tumbledown ramshackle shape to it that I can't quite latch onto. Some great lyrics though - especially the one about lying about your age, so that by now 'I'm younger than you'.

Wow, very very surprised that they didn't sing live!
That doesn't sound like Elvis at all! They miming stopped with Top of the Pops I thought?

Invisible Man
This is such a fantastic 3-song clip - am sure have posted it before, but it came up in my YouTube timeline just now. Elvis looks cool as fuck and obviously the boys are great. Holy shit, Invisible Man is a hard song to sing: so few opps to catch your breath! Elvis manages it though! https://m.youtu...

Re: Re-examination of "Punch the Clock"
Hadn't heard about this possible track listing, but even without hearing it, I can tell it'd be an improvement.
There's just too much blaring going on with the horns (despite it being excellent blaring), and these would've been a respite.

I agree, that's just gonna be a book of the lyrics - or possibly some parody of children's stories.

Hawksmoor, I'm not 100% sure the private message replies work properly. I can see your message, but my reply is stuck in the outbox. If you private message me your email address, I can email you instead. Cheers, Neil.

This is a good rocker - it's like the love child of 'Stella Hurt' and 'My Lovely Jezebel', with shades of 'American Gangster Time'.

Re: Meet up in the North?
Go for it, Hawksmoor - there must be loads of Northern Elvis fans on here! Lerrus know. Southern types (inc me- Welsh, but living in London) will prob need an afternoon booze-up in order to get back same day, as with the London meet ups for northern fans. Saturdays tend to be best! Leeds? Manchester...

Re: Elvis on BBC Sounds, November 11, 2021
So Elvis is in town in November. I think we would've been told about a gig by now, so I don't think there's going to be one this side of Christmas. Too late. Something's surely brewing, though!
