Hi everyone!
It's my first time on this site.I think its great!I've only been listening to Elvis' music for a couple of years.I wasn't born until 1985,so its all a bit new to me.Have you any suggestions for any essential albums I should be buying?
I'm really into Promised Land at the moment.What about everyone else?
welcome Kayley :)
right now im listening to Such A Night
welcome aboard,kayley ..i hope you'll enjoy your stay...right now i am not listening to any thing :) i just try to warm up with my sweater ..my brother in law teased me each time i am whinning with cold weather, he would say " welcome to the northwest " :laughing:
I remember the first time i heard that promised land was when i watched the movie : Men In Black ..the next day i went to the CD store to find out if i could find the album :) and i did ..:) its one of my favourite song since then .. (y)
Hi Buttonhead and ElvisGirl!
The Promised Land album has been in my CD player for the past week.Have you got a favourite Elvis song? I don't think many people have,it's so difficult to choose.At the moment I love
Good Time Charlies got the Blues
Kentucky Rain
Wearin that loved on look
Just Pretend
I'll stop there or I'll be here all day!
I like ALOT of elvis songs kayley,..most of the times i am listening to :
Fools Rush In,Mine, Gentle On My Mind, T-R-O-U-B-L-E, and of course Promised Land...and many many many more..:)
Actually this topic had been discussed ,..but by then, i might wrote different songs :lol: its hard to decide which is my fave ,...he had so many wonderful albums and songs (y)
T-R-O-U-B-L-E I love that song! What are your favourite albums? I haven't really got that many.There are so many boxsets and compilations,where do you start?
On my wish list at the moment are Aloha from Hawaii and Elvis Country.
I already have:
50 Greatest Hits
TTWII 3cd box set
Memories
Platinum Vol 2
From Elvis in Memphis
Promised Land
Its not much,I'm hoping you can help.Are there any must-buy albums I should be looking for?

Welcome aboard Kayley, right now I'm listening to E1 and Elvis from Memphis.
Hi Kayley...and a BIG WELCOME....and yes it is difficult when you first start collecting the King as to where to begin.Theres so much official (studio-movies-concerts-outakes-box sets) you get my point ?
I guess i been collecting nearly 30 yrs..and i still am ! (y) but your collection so far is good with a nice sellection. A good collection to start on would be the FTD range with plenty of choice , good sound , and decent packaging (most times). I wont get into the BOOTLEG side as that would take another lifetime... :) so just enjoy Elvis...hed like that.
...at the risk of being a traitor I'm curently listening to John Lee Hooker.....I'm diggin' the blues right now ;)
WELCOME TO THE BOARD KAYLEY!!! WE HOPE YOU WILL LIKE IT HERE!!! (y)
As for which Elvis CD I am listening to right now, it's my ALL TIME favorite Elvis album - TODAY!! This album just has it all in my opinion....country, rock, ballads....it's just such an AWESOME album, in my opinion!! :D
As for which Elvis CD's to consider purchasing, if you are a 70's Elvis fan (and it sounds to me like you are), you NEED to find yourself a copy of the FTD release THE JUNGLE ROOM SESSIONS!!! An absolutely EYE OPENING CD, in my opinion....many people would have you believe that Elvis was not interested in making music by 1976 and was just bored with the whole music making process. But, one listen to THE JUNGLE ROOM SESSIONS will give you a whole new appreciation for the effort that Elvis was putting into his music, even in 1976!!! It's simply an OUTSTANDING CD....one that should be in EVERY Elvis fans collection, in my opinion!!
ONCE AGAIN....WELCOME TO THE BOARD!!! (h)
TCB!
Mike
