What a dreadful program. Three unfunny comedians (if you include the presenter) and a basketball player. Had to endure 45 minutes of torture and adverts before Elvis came on. Wasn't he just too good for this program? Touring America from mid-February. Getting married in England between now and then ...

Any Elvis songs you don't like?
I'll begin with Luxembourg. :( For 22 years I could hardly make out any of it. Only recently printed the Trust lyrics off the internet. Could add Sour Milk-Cow Blues/The Great Unknown/The Deportees Club, consecutive tracks from side two of Goodbye Cruel World - not my favourite section of an Elvis LP.

Sulky boy
Good to see that Birmingham seems to have pulled Elvis out his sulk on us Brits.
I don't know the following songs. What can anyone tell me?
No Wonder
Dirty Rotten Shame
Either Side Of The Same Town sounds really good in concert and he seems to do it a lot. Elvis hasn't recorded it, has he?

Does my memory fail me or can anyone else remember Elvis singing (or miming) this song on BBC Saturday morning children's program Swap Shop - I think when Clubland was being promoted.

Elvis' next album
Sour Milk Cow wrote:- an album where the band plays the songs, EC multi-tracks his vocal harmonies, and they sing 10 or 15 new songs. Pop songs, folk songs, country songs, blues songs, soul songs, whatever. This sounds perfect. Something poppy and immediate. An album you love on first play and not t...

Significance of Brutal Youth cover
Maybe KoS.
Though I am sure Elvis has never been racist and one drunken incident seems to be referred back to an awful lot (it was recalled in several of the North reviews). It all happened just before I got into Elvis so I don't remember the coverage at the time.

Post 89 Albums
Elvis' post '89 albums are overall not as good as Spike and prior, I feel.
My order would be:-
1. Brutal Youth
2. When I Was Cruel
3. All This Useless Beauty
4. North
5. Mighty Like A Rose
6. The Juliet Letters
7. Painted From Memory
(then a gap to)
8. Kojak Variety
9. Cruel Smile

No. It is certainly a masterpiece. I remember being disappointed when I bought it on initial release but it grows and grows on you over time. I love it now and never skip a track, my favourite tracks being the last two, You Little Fool and Town Cryer. Personally I prefer Punch The Clock, King Of Ame...

Was a 15 year old with a £5 record voucher from Christmas 1979 burning a whole in my pocket. Knew Oliver's Army and catchy new single out (I Can't Stand Up). Took a chance and invested in Get Happy. I didn't think that 23 years later I would still be buying his records. ps Get Happy will always star...

Thanks Emotional and Plaything for correcting me on Indoor Fireworks. He definitely didn't do it. I had put a cd together of all non-North tracks he has been doing in concert recently and must have brainwashed myself with it. The highlight of the concert for me was Sleep Of The Just. Favourite North...

Manchester
33 songs definitely correct, 34 if you count DDTM and YRGAHOM separately.
YRGAHOM was the Beatle's song.

Concert fantastic. Three songs missing from above set list. Elvis also did Indoor Fireworks, Man Out Of Time and You Turned To Me.
