    'Elvis: Memories' On Billboard Album Charts

    From Billboard's 'Industry News' dated 26th August, 2010 commenting on the Top 200 Album Charts:

    Elvis Presley: The King of Rock & Roll's "Elvis: Memories" returns to the list at No. 72 following a direct-response TV advertising campaign kicked into high-gear. It went from selling a negligible number the week previous to 6,000 this week.

    I wonder what album this is and what tracks it contains?

    Problem solved.

    The Set is put out by Shopping Channel QVC.

    It's good news for Elvis being a 3 CD Set as under RIAA rules a 6,000 sale now becomes 18,000.

    So 6,000 (18,000) sales have come soley from people buying from QVC?

    I think the songs are trying to show a general cross section of all that Elvis did (and he did do the soundtracks)
    On a personal note, my brothers band use to tour the US(Holiday Inns and similar gigs)and all the guys were Elvis fans, they use to do "Wolf Call" and believe it or not people got a kick out of the song...it was fun. No fights erupted like in "Girl Happy"
    Work in Progress!
