are you living in " lisa marie " jet plane too
To musical purists whom consider EP's 1950's SUN material as the Holy Grail, it is goes against Nature to admire, enjoy, praise EP's '76-77 material. In the words of some, it is unworthy of "celebration."
------------------
I happen to like all decades of EP's career, but am partial to the 70's Elvis.
- Capt. "EL."
PS - Yes, I enjoy living on The Lisa Marie, but have to hide in the closet during normal business touring hours - can only come out to play @ night .... just like EP.
I view the '76-'77 recordings and performances as very insightful and mesmerizing...True,1954 and 1955 are historically important...the latter Elvis works are facinating to me..
Analyizing his state of mind..his actions...his mythological tragic decline..
"The Unmaking of Elvis Presley" is by far one of the best books I've ever read...
Guralnick's "Careless Love" ( I assume this is what you are referring to ) - in light of his first autobiographical volume, "Last Train ..." - was a missed opportunity to document the second half of EP's career / life.
His first volume was outstanding; his second book was too superficial, too easy on Col. Parker (biased), lacking in original research / follow-up, and contains errors. It also leaves one with the impression that it was a bit rushed, not done with same care / sincerity / attention to detail of historical importance, as the first volume.
Like I said, a missed opportunity.
- Capt. "EL."
