 Elvis : For The Asking - 1990 15 Track Vinyl LP pressed by BMG with a '50s style black and silver label and colour picture sleeve NL90513.
Elvis : For The Asking is a great collection that should have been. The songs recorded here were recorded to be a follow up to Elvis Presley's #1 Pot Luck album from 1962.RCA decided to scrap the album in favour of more movie soundtacks, and in turn relegating the songs to B-sides and sountrack album fillers. A few of the songs here actually were hits and sold well, proving the fact that RCA was wrong. It's a great pity that the album never surfaced, as the songs here are of a very high standard and would have made his best album since Elvis is Back. Devil In Disguise was a massive seller, #1 in Britain in 1963. It Hurts Me is a classic recording, one of the most beautiful ballads I have ever heard. It was a B-side to the terrible Kissin Cousins single, yet still sold around a half million copies and charted in its own right. Memphis Tennessee is a classic rocker, with a great drum beat and a fab vocal by the King. The rest of the tracks are lesser known, but dont let that put you off as this is great music. Long Lonely Highway is a standout, a travelling country blues. Witchcraft is not the Sinatra song, but its a good bouncy rock song. Ask me is a gentle ballad and was a half million selling hit in America, whilst Western Union suffers from similarities to Return to Sender. This is a very worthy purchase, and is a great companion to the Tomorrow is a Long Time CD, another possible Elvis Presley album that never saw the light of day. Tracklisting: Long lonely highway, Western Union, Witchcraft, Love me tonight, What now, what next, where to, Please donīt drag that string around, Blue river, Never ending, Devil in diguise, Finders keepers, losers weepers, Echoes of love, Slowdy but surely, It hurts me, Ask me Elvis : For The Asking : 12 inch vinyl recordElvis Shop > Elvis Vinyl Records |
