Elvis 'Highbrow music show' for American TV
I was sitting waiting for my chicken-in-green-peppers-in-black-bean-sauce at my local Chinese takeaway the other day, and there was an old magazine with an interview with David Furnish in it. I flicked through. He said he was developing the above with Elvis. What d'you reckon? A kind of Jools Hollan...

First I've heard of it, but I'd love to see it. There are blinding versions of Uncomplicated and I Hope You're Happy Now from Whistle Test 1986. Also remember a great duet with his dad on Ray Charles's Georgia from some arts review show with Russell Davies. And I believe he did Clubland or Beyond Be...

30-year anniversaries
Hi all - so is the plan that Elvis releases ALL his albums 30 years after the event, with a live CD attached? Or is it just happening to MAIT?
To be honest, I think I'll be buying yet again if they all have an extra CD's worth of new stuff - hope lots of crazy live cover versions turn up.

Nick Lowe web-only live video
Hi all, Just to say, BBC Four website has two new live tracks with Elvis's old producer, and a v charming 8 min interview (in which he mentions Elvis) on the BBC FOUR website. Details of the TV airings of the concert can be seen on the web page too. http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcfour/music/features/nick-l...

Not much to add except that it was great to meet Verbal, John and Sulky - and Verbal's verbal gymnastics helped secure me that complimentary ticket - thanks so much for that! Ooh - one thing to add actually: even tho the venue was only two-thirds full, the crowd were really appreciative and making a...

Meeting before London gig on Saturday
Hi - so what's the score on Saturday? Is anyone meeting before the London gig? I ain't going to the gig, but happy to meet beforehand - be good to meet some fellow Elvis nuts. Happy to go to a different place, but this is my suggestion. MAybe meet there at - what - 5.30pm if the gig starts at 8? Wha...

UK performance of 'New' greatest hits CD
Hi y'all,
Anyone heard how the UK release of "The First 10 Years" is doing in the charts? It needs a TV ad to give it a kick: has there been a TV campaign? I ain't seen anything. Squeeze's Greatest Hits package has been recently advertised a lot on telly.
Neil

The album's got this demented energy about it that's so thrilling. So danceable, so heartbreaking in its (admittedly few) quieter moments, and so layered in its arrangements - even though it's just a four-piece combo. The shouty, stroppy singing. The organ snaking around everything, or else the poun...

Okay, that's it!
I listened to Get Happy the other night in bed on headphones, just me in the dark with the music. I've decided, once and for all, that it's Elvis's best album, definitely, no question! I've always wavered over that or Blood and Chocolate, but now I've decided that B&C is best to introduce someon...
