A uniformly strong selection of songs and cleaner-than-usual production make TODAY one of Elvis Presley's better '70s studio efforts. From its opening track "T-R-O-U-B-L-E" (later a hit for Travis Tritt), TODAY announces that it is not just another collection of regret-filled ballads from the King. Sure, there are a few torch songs here, but on TODAY the tear-jerkers are balanced out by such up-tempo numbers as "Susan When She Tried," the inspirational "Shake A Hand," and a cover of the Billy Swan hit "I Can Help."

On other tracks, Presley transforms the Pointer Sisters' hit "Fairytale" into a two-step and belts out a Tom Jones-like version of the death-row weeper "Green, Green Grass of Home." Throughout, Elvis' crack band sparkles, with guitarist James Burton in particularly fine form. Don't let the nearly identical covers RCA slapped on Presley's Seventies albums fool you: not all Elvis albums from this era are the same. Each has something to recommend it, but TODAY has more than the standard share of highlights.

Contains 20 bit remastered tracks.

3 stars I PLAYED AN OLD PIANO FROM NINE-HALF PAST ONE
T.R.O.U.B.L.E opens up this album and it's dynamite-pieces of my life is awesome, "water glass full of whisky and women I never knew to well"one of EP's deepest songs. 'I can help' from Billy Swan is a great version,listen to that bass, all topped of with amazing sound- better than the FTD version, buy it.

To Maggie, popular Charlie is a way out of her financial difficulties. Trouble brew, however, when Charlie begins a romance with Cathy Lean (Joan Freeman), and Cathy's carnival supervisor brother, Joe (Leif Erickson), disapproves.

Elvis' last studio recordings were made in the den of Graceland, with Presley performing his vocals karaoke-style over previously completed backing tracks. Ten of these tracks, recorded in February 1976, are collected on FROM ELVIS PRESLEY BOULEVARD, MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE. The tone of this album is set by the opening track, "Hurt," a top 10 country hit for the King. Like "Hurt," nearly all the songs on FROM ELVIS PRESLEY BOULEVARD are about loss, regret, sadness, and disappointment. It's easy to read between the lines and find an autobiographical context, to hear in these songs Elvis mourning for his mother, his separation from his wife and daughter, and his deteriorating health and ...

Elvis Presley stars as Pacer Burton, son of a white father (John McIntire) and Native American mother (Dolores del Rio) who finds his loyalties tested in a war of attrition between a fierce Indian tribe, the Kiowas, and a group of racist white settlers on the Texas frontier in 1870. Although his parents attempt to remain outside the fray, his father is eventually killed in an Indian attack on the settlement. A white man, enraged over the Indian attacks, kills Pacer's mother. Shunned by white society after the Indian attacks, Pacer elects to fight on the side of the Kiowas while his brother, Clint (Steve Forrest), stays with the settlers. When Clint rides into the Kiowa camp alone and kills their chief to avenge his father's murder, Pacer fights off the entire tribe to protect his brother, and Clint barely escapes with his life. After Pacer's girl, Roslyn Pierce (Barbara Eden), has tended to Clint's severe wounds, she's unsuccessful in trying to stop him from going off to try to save his brother's life. Presley gives his finest performance as the sensitive Pacer, supported by an excellent cast in what is likely his best film. The strong, uncompromising script on the tragic cost of racism is superbly directed by Don Siegel. Barbara Eden, Dolores Del Rio, Elvis Presley, John McIntire, Steve ...

Divine Miss M
Bette Midler Divine Miss M CD  (1972) Remastered

Today
CD $6.05  4 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
Years of acting in comedies and performing Las Vegas revues have clouded public perception of Bette Midler; people tend to forget now just how completely weird she was in 1972, how she skirted on the edges of taboo. Absurdly sexy, defiantly trashy, and unafraid of crossing musical boundaries whenever she felt like it, the Bette Midler of her debut, THE DIVINE MISS M, is someone truly remarkable. That this sense of adventurousness was eventually replaced by more mainstream aspirations is somewhat of a shame, but at least for this album, something truly new was happening. The record starts with a sultry, sexy re-imagination of Bobby Freeman's "Do You Want to Dance?" as a more carnal invitation than the dance-party original, and moves through similar re-workings of Leon Russell's groupie anthem "Superstar," John ...
