Some interesting things from the Q&A:

- If I did hear Elvis right, he said he has made some kind of Rock and Roll album. (The new album with The Imposters?)
- It was not Elvis’s decision to put out no CD-version from Armed Forces Super Deluxe Edition. The vinyl version is a limited edition. (He seemed to imply that there will be some kind of CD-release eventually).

Couple of other less positive things I picked up on:

- he ruled out releasing complete live shows, also saying he had no interest in Dicks Picks style releases
- he hinted that he knows his intonation/tuning is ‘off’ but dismissed it as an issue, citing Frank Sinatra and Billie Holiday

There goes my hopes of a career break sorting through millions of live shows for Elvis :cry:

But I think the most burning question I have is:

What was his zoom background?!
