Ah, thanks for the reminder, Marc!
I’m set to start recording an album with the Country / 50′s Rock ‘n’ Roll band tomorrow. I called the guys and told them to start the recording tonight instead, starting with an ‘All Shook Up’ cover. It only seems right to record on the Elvis’ birthday.

Great article, thanks for posting it.
Interesting to think that both David Bell and his Lead Guitarist Frankie Bengel are also 21 years of age, and today, some 54 years after the above picture of Elvis was taken, are about to record some of his songs in a snow covered studio in Romford.
Here’s to the next 75 years.

Nice article about the King. Personal fave performances: Lawdy Miss Clawdy from 1956 (you can get it on the 1999 release of his self titled RCA debut), Jailhouse Rock and the comeback special performance of Trouble.
