Back to the music for a minute.
Tipsy Woman sounded fantastic. I hope they record this. Where has he picked this up from?

Re: Liverpool Philharmonic Hall 10 June 2022
Were you upstairs or down Hawksmoor? Lots of people left from upstairs. I really couldn’t understand why people kept shouting out after the microphone was changed. Drunken fools spoiling it for others. I was really looking forward to Mr Crescent and what could have been a beautiful transition from A...

Re: Liverpool Philharmonic Hall 10 June 2022
I think this report is actually a fair assessment of what happened last night. People upstairs were shouting out about the sound. Elvis was completely drowned out for the first few songs. Elvis thought he was being heckled and directed some unpleasant language towards his audience. He then mentioned...

Re: The Boy Named If, new album by Elvis & The Imposters, January 14, 2022
The concentration on UK promotion has resulted in a very disappointing new entry at number 200 in the US album chart.
Down to 47 in the midweek UK chart. Look Now spent two weeks in the top 100 and TBNI may do the same.

Just entered the UK album chart at number 6. How lovely, biggest hit since Brutal Youth.
Number 2 based off physical sales.

Re: Sebastian Krys
Absolutely! And after watching Elvis at the controls in Liverpool at the weekend I think it is fair to say that a lot of credit for putting the latest record together so brilliantly with all four of them in different parts of the world must be down to him.

The album is number 3 in the midweek UK album chart. Hopefully it hangs on to be his first top 10 album since 1994.

Re: No Guardian review of 'Boy Named If'?
Completely agree with you Neil over 'What If I Can't Give You Anything But Love?' It should be the next "single". Absolute stormer. Just had to play it on my work computer at high volume......luckily just me here.

Perhaps the final UK promotion? He’ll be needing to get a plane soon you would think.

I ordered the the vinyl/signed cd book from the UK store in December. I received a confirmation but nothing since. They've not taken the money. I was wondering how others are getting on?
