It will be under the supergroup title of Mark Ronson and the Business International Ransom.

Is it just me or does Elvis sound a bit like Ringo on Thomas The Tank Engine

Thanks for that John - new to me too! Lovely arrangement, Elvis' high key vocal just right, not as strained as it can be.

From 2004, regarding the most disgusting food he's tried:
EC: I don't eat meat so that narrows it down quite a bit. I eat fish, but I don't eat meat, so the disgusting possibilities are a lot less if you're trapped in a land with no food like Germany and the one thing you have to eat is like, sheep's eyes or something.

Q: How long have you been a vegetarian?

EC: Well, I'm not a vegetarian.

Q: Okay, a pesce-

EC: (Dismissively) Yeah, whatever it is. I just don't like the taste of meat. Like I don't like the taste of alcohol.

Germany (also Austria) has great food! Have to mark him down MAJOR points on this one! He does wear rabbit / hare fur felt hats so I guess he isn't a member of PETA.
