Although they have common recording origins, two of the three singles, “It’s Now or Never” and “Are You Lonesome Tonight,” were very quirky by the standards of Elvis songs at the time — the former inspired by Elvis’s admiration for Tony Martin’s 1949 hit “There’s No Tomorrow,” while the latter was recorded at the request of Col. Parker as a favor to his wife. They add to the diversity of sounds on this record, which shows a mature Elvis Presley. Continue reading “Elvis Presley – Elvis Is Back!

The second volume of Essential Elvis offers Elvis in binaural stereo from the January 1957 sessions that produced several hits. (RCA Victor generously filled the disc out with mono masters of the remaining songs to give the consumer a complete version of the sessions.) This is a lot of fun; the gaffes are numerous, obvious, and hilarious, and for ears raised on multi-track recording, it must be amazing to hear an entire record recorded live in the studio!

Benny Joy - Crash The Rockabilly Party (1998)

Spin The Bottle is a perennial rockabilly dancefloor favourite, and other quality tracks include Crash The Party, Rollin’ To The Jukebox Rock, Miss Bobby Sox, and Steady With Betty. Benny’s guitarist Big John Taylor is featured on three raunchy instrumentals. – Originally recorded for the Tri-Dec, Ram and Antler labels, but the majority of the cuts remained unissued until the rockabilly revival of the 1970s. – Included here is a previously unissued professional demo session, which illustrates the strength of Benny Joy’s vocal and songwriting abilities.

Elvis Presley - 24 Karat Hits! (1997) [2012, Remastered, CD-Layer & Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Had Elvis Presley done nothing else but record “That’s Alright, Mama,” his place in pop music history would be secure. With his first regional hit, Presley fused rhythm and blues with country, put a handsome white face out front for audiences to see, and in so doing legitimized beat music for white audiences. It is no understatement to call Presley the chief catalyst of the rock-and-roll era. During the 1950s, Presley’s records spent a collective 53 weeks in the number one chart position. Only the Beatles can boast similar sales success. Continue reading “Elvis Presley – 24 Karat Hits! (1997) [2012, Remastered, CD-Layer & Hi-Res SACD Rip]”

On Air is a collection of rarely heard radio recordings from the Stones formative years. The songs including eight tracks the band have never recorded or released commercially, were originally broadcast on bygone UK shows such as Saturday Club, and Rhythm and Blues between 1963 and 1965. The tapes have gone through a process called “audio source separation”, making tracks like Come On, (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction, and many more sound better than before. Deluxe CD features 32 classic tracks! Continue reading “The Rolling Stones – The Rolling Stones On Air (2017) {Deluxe Edition}”
