Subject Type:. Year Manufactured:. Elvis Presley. Non-Sport Trading Card. Card Name:. Professional Grader:. I'm thinking of those legendary Wendy James and George Jones demos, which are I have heard are brilliant.

Always liked THAT idea. I had a weird experience lately. I said "no it's not" and then I listened and that beat was like a spike through my head. I said to my friend, "thanks alot" and now I can only listen to the demo version.

That snare is pretty impossible to miss. Maybe it helped make the songs a hit I have had the feeling you mention a few times but now I am getting the chance to illustrate what may have gone missing now and then by issuing the demos. Thanks for listening. Presumably on Punch the Clock or Imperial Bedroom? Played a show at Robert's Wyatt's Meltdown festival last summer with Annie Whitehead's band - she lead the horn section on trombone.

Maybe the time is approaching. Did you lose anything especially precious? Perhaps I had accumulated too many instruments - last time I looked, I only had two hands. Fortunately, I like to keep my favourite acoustic guitars close at hand for songwriting at home, along with a couple of good electric guitars when the mood strikes.

I enjoyed that "Jools" show. Mary J. I've seen "I'm Your Toy" from that show and it is fantastic! I'm sure lots of people would love to see it. Then there is a question of the expense - I seem to recall that the broadcast fees to the orchestra were such that we could only afford to show one song from the concert.

It might be time to look at that again. I think it's one of your best ever!! I think this is a song I had to write on my way to "Alison". I know a few people who saw the Mingus concert and said it was phenomenal. I also concur with the "young fans" comment I'm 18 and a huge fan. It also happen to be my first standing-only show for nearly 25 years in Los Angeles, if that matters If not I will be back with two more concerts playing different music in early You were bloody amazing.

So, how do you pull off that kind of intensity, what's the mind state when you walk on the stage? PS Straight down the music store tomorrow for a copy of the newie. Congrats, your back in my life!

A good show can shake you up but only in a good way. Sometimes I feel like I could play the show all over again. Sometimes I do. I even translated 'The Julliet letters into russian Who's your favorite writer or poet?

However, there are no current plans to visit Germany but things can change. As a man I understand the femme fatale thing, but what did lawyers ever do to you? However, "Soul for Hire" is actually about a decent but overworked and ultimately failing public servant - which I think you'll catch when you listen again.

In fact, I wouldn't be so sure about those "femme fatales" in every case either. Well, here's my thing - you've got a sense of humor, it's easy to tell, and comedy seems to play an important role lyrically in many of your works, and beyond all that you're a wordsmith of theh highest caliber.

How d'yer feel about your songs inspiring stories, novels, and dare I say it? Do you find it strange when an author cites you as a source? Are all of us NYC-Boho freaks resting upon the acme of foolishness to quote your works? I'd like to know from the man himself. I feel you should write your own punchline. Then there was the climbing manual that wanted to use "After the fall".

However, on the whole it is intriguing to find references to the songs in the plots and dialogue of literary works and even in the occasional newspaper story other than those about my work.

If a song of mine provokes another work of imagination, it is hard to regard it as a bad thing. Love "Morning Bell". Thanks for the recommendation on Muse. Any chance that you'll release some DVD's in the future, for example a compilation of all your old promo videos, or the Case for Song video, or the Juliets? Maybe we will put out the old videos on DVD one day, along with the concert specials but most of them look like silent movies these days. Having all of your videos in one place with great picture and sound quality with a commentary track from you telling us your thoughts and remembrances of the videos as they play would make a lot of your fans very happy.

Also, how about a release of the film of your performance with the RPO in ? The Floodtide' and 'Revolution Doll' come about? They sound like somebody else remixed your songs, but I don't see anyone listed as 'remixer'. I'm asking because they sound unlike anything I've ever heard from you, even more so than the tracks on 'Cruel". I managed to see last year in Manchester. What was it like working with him early this year and is he really the nicest man on the planet?

Elvis - Thanks for 25 years of fabulous music. He is the very gentleman you imagine. I'm sorry if my English is not good. Thank you very match. I hope to visit Spain later in the year. You see, your English is much better than my Spanish. My Magnatone Typhoon is called "Minnie Pearl" because it still has the price tag in the head. Can I suggest you also use it with a Jumbo acoustic or a Fender Nelliecaster?

Yeah, I used it when I was playing "Trunken Angel". Now are you satisfied? I'm 15 years old, and my Dad's been a tremendous fan of yours since He says you autographed it after he saw you music shopping at Tower Records in Hollywood, just a few hours before your concert at J.

I've got a great appreciation for your music, and my Dad is taking me and my not-so-spooky at all girlfriend to your concert at the Kodak Theatre. My Dad's very cool, and it's been just the two of us for the past 11 years He's a great single-dad. Anyway, I wanted to know why you picked the Kodak Theatre, and what were some of the reasons why you picked that venue?

Thanks very much for taking the time to read my long message, and all the best to you and your family and for your new record! My folks and I talk about music constantly and always have done.

Same goes for me and my son. To answer your question, the Kodak is the new theatre in town so we thought we'd give it a spin. There isn't any gray area. It's just stealing. Then he has to make another one. What gives you the right to create a product once and then sell the same product over, transfer the rights to a corporation or your offspring and let them sell it over and over until years after you are dead?

That's fair? Or are songs somehow intrinsically more valuable than chairs? The current business model is broken. CDs and LPs are obsolete. Distributers and other middle-men are no longer necessary. BTW, your songs are already available in mp3 format all over the place.

Why not make them available on your own site for a small fee. You might be surprised. We don't live in a world full of individual hand-crafted objects and we both know it. If you steal a mass produced chair they still call the police. If someone steals my song I suppose I still have the right to call them a thief. In my opinion songs ARE more valuable than chairs but they are much less comfortable to sit on.

I'm 17 and I love your music. Don't get discouraged because I'll bet good music is gonna sift into the youth culture again. I was wondering if you know how great Mighty Like a Rose is?

Kind words - much appreciated. When I hear "Spooky Girlfriend", I can't help but picture Britney Spears auditioning for a sleezy record exec with her overambitious mother. I can see her in her lttle Catholic schoolgirl outfit sitting on his knee. Did you have her in mind when you penned the song? On the other hand, I will be appearing in the form of a cartoon. I just wanted to say that I'm 13 and I've been a big fan of your music all my life, I guess, because my parents are. I love the new album!

I'm getting my first guitar acoustic and I'm wondering what type I should get. What do you recomend? I would recommend getting the best instrument that you can afford and there are many good brands. Yamaha used to make relatively inexpensive instruments that sound good.

Very cheap guitars don't tune well, sound bad and the strings can be too far from the neck - this can be very discouraging and frustrating for a novice.

Another tip. If you want to play songs right away, don't start by playing in the key of C as many instruction books tell you to do. The second chord you will have to learn is F and that is tricky one for a beginner. Many people give up at that second chord! If you are playing by ear as opposed to from music , start in the key of G which requires you to learn easy chords like G, Em, C and D in order to play many songs. You'll get singing right away and once you strength your fingers you can go back and tackle "difficult" barre chords like F and Bb.

I've found that it is also good to learn to read music but you'll be able to play a lot of songs on the guitar quite quickly this way. That should give you the encouragement to practice and learn more, not to mention, enjoying yourself. I am currently working in Jerusalem all the hot spots! Any chance you'll be playing Hoover Factory?

The Ackerman Ballroom is the place if you want to throw yourself about. This is part of my so-called "Artist-Residence" season. I've been listening to you since I was in my mother's tummy. Was wondering if I need to bring ear plugs?

Looking forward to it - please say "hi" to me. Thanks, Emma. Our show can get loud, ear defenders might be a good idea as you will want to be able to hear music for your whole life.

Great stuff, methinks! I read the interview in Guitar World about the guitars you used on the album getting destroyed Out of all of the guitars you've used thru the years, which are your most beloved?

Thanks, keep pumping out the great music! Actually, things did not turn out quite as drastic as first feared. Several acoustic guitars WERE destroyed and a vintage Rickenbacker but my main electric guitars from the record Jazzmaster, Magnatone and Silvertone all recovered after drying out always a good idea and some re-wiring.

Big thanks to Chandler's of Kew for their excellent work. Most guitars have a few good tunes in them - my old Harmony Sovereign contained much of "My Aim is True", my current Gibson E most of "Brutal Youth", so it is hard to choose a favourite.

I'm glad that my Jazzmaster survived the flood but it is dangerous to get attached to objects. Only one rough piano version exists. Perhaps it is time to release it. I have not seen that axe listed in liner notes since the late 60's when Randy California of the great band, Spirit used to abuse one and got all that great feedback and that terrfic throbbing hum.

I had one also and the case that came with it had an amplifier built into it! How did you happen to discover all the virtues of this wonderful squealing brute and that deliciously horrible amp? Nice to see you back in the New England area! He was looking for the suitcase model to which you refer. I picked up the guitar used on "When I was cruel" on the same day but didn't start to use it full time until about two years ago.

I am a fan of "Dr. Sardonicus" but know little else of Spirit or other Randy California recordings. Watch a football match "soccer" to U. Call friends that I haven't seen for a while. Nothing special. That's about it. Hey what is it with all these requests to go to all these obscure American towns? The M20 motorway has been finished since you last came down so there is no excuse.

You have relieved me of wallet loads of ticket money over the last 25 years so a return trip to Kent would be fair reward. Do you have any fond memories of the 'Get Happy' tour with all those exotic dance halls from Margate to Fishguard.

Why did you forget the words in Hastings Thank you for your time. We had many great nights on it. As to the diaster at Leas Cliff Hall - I'm afraid that had something to do with "Depthcharges" - a tot of Navy rum dropped into a pint of dry cider. Clearly not good for the memory. Since then I have never liked to play over water OR under it. You have lots of fans here. Perhaps You do not know.

By the way - "When I was Cruel" is a lot of joy. I will pass this information on to my agent and see what we can do about it. Am i wrong, or are you going into a guitar hero faze? They're brilliant, the lot of them. When did you first become aware of his work? I can't help but hear Blue's lyrics' "Everybody's saying that hell's the hippest Has that appeared on CD somewhere and I've missed it , or will it see the light of day soon?

Your last show here took the top off my head When the piece is complete I hope to record it. Hope to return to Nashville in October. I heard that Steve Nieve played a theramin, an instruament I've always loved, but I've never seen anyone play it. Since I'll be going to the June 8th Chicago show and seeing you perform for the first time was wondering if I'd see the theramin, too! And thanks for coming back. The funny thing is, after loving all those ballads, she is now really getting into the rowdier stuff on WIWC, like "15 petals.

Are you picking up more female fans after the crooning years? It is a great "Sunday Morning" record. The title track may be the most joyful piece of music you've recorded. Are there any other artists you'd like to produce records for? It took Anne Sofie von Otter to make me want to return to that task. I have no one else in mind at present. What is the funniest thing you've ever seen?

What song makes you laugh out loud? That IS a funny record. And did you ever get to meet him? I never did meet the man. Will we ever get to hear your "Hora Decubitus" again? It really was a life affirming piece and so special to hear at the time. That seemed to be the right song to sing on those nights.

The Mingus music has the stuff of life in it. Don't you mourn the loss of the LP in terms of the design opportunities it afforded. I'm a massive Barney Bubbles fan, by the way. He did such a fantastic job on your early stuff.

In fact I have enjoyed working with all the designers since Barney Bubbles. Barney was an extraordinary fellow and a wonderful artist. I was extremely fortunate to have known him and miss him very much.

I read you were able to sing the whole Mass in plainsong as an Altar Boy. Is this true? All three copies sold. Would you like to come out here and play a gig? There's a big tent city, and we could probably get the American government to fly you for free. S passport these days - but thanks for asking. It won't be considered as a political action! Unfortunately there are no plans to visit your country at this time. My wife was working in Eilat last year and loved being there.

Maybe when peace comes we can visit. Apparantly no one ever complained about the fascist name, because it's called the "Quisling Terrace Apartment Homes. Did that ever come out? Maybe it will appear one day. Are the other Rhino releases going to omit some of the Rydodisc bonus tracks as well? Or will these missing tracks appear on one of the other reissues? It sounds like you recorded something in the studio and then played it backwards to intro the song.

We're going to be, well, excited. So just how rockin' will this tour be? Will three teenage fit in? This tour is very rocking. The miscalculation has continued since. Thanks for being so gracious there and on this site. My question: your favorite Joni Mitchell song? I just heard that you will be touring in Japan this summer. Hope I can get a ticket and have a great time at your concert! One of your song, "Smile" is used in one of the pupular Japanese drama right now and you won't believe this I hear your song everyday on radio.

We all are looking forward to seeing you in Japan. It is a total tribute or rip-off! Have the guys every mentioned this to you? How many songs will you guys the Imposters rehearse for this tour? If so, I'd like you to know how often I have listened to Shipbuilding since Your words helped me deal with my feelings of anger, fear and hatred. Listening calmed me, comforted me and reminded me of the realty of an impending war. I filled my head with thoughts of the innocent in the world and instead of seething with vengence began praying for peace.

I wish you peace of mind. See you at the Beacon, and consider this a request for "Episode of Blonde". It's about "revisionist history", so to speak It seems like you are now distancing yourself from the Attractions "reunion" of the mid-nineties, saying that All This Useless Beauty wasn't really an Attractions album because the band was falling apart as you made it. But when that record came out, you seemed so genuinely enthusiastic about how great the bad was on that record. And recently, you said you felt that your new Rhino liner notes were more positive because you wrote the last ones as the band was falling apart.

But those first reissues came out during the Brutal Youth period, when sprits seemed to be high and you were still in the process of re-forming. I suppose it's a very natural human impulse, almost like when you've had a bad break up with someone, you want to just forget you ever even liked them. Am I barking up the wrong tree here, or have I actually picked up on something?

Regarding interviews given in the mids, I suppose it was hard to admit to yourself that you were wasting your time. The record was very nearly scrapped in the autumn of and only saved by some re-recording and Geoff Emmerick and John Jacobs wonderful mix. I've always foound that amateur psychoanalysis is a very tedious and unrewarding pastime but thank you for your concern.

Thanks for mixing it up and making each one different from the rest. It makes life more interesting. If aliens came down from another planet and asked for one of your albums to take back to their people, which album would you choose to give them? Are the songs more or less settled in the beginning or the tour, or do you let the particular country, the city, the venue, the occasion and the atmosphere have an effect on which songs you will play? I'm really looking forward to the gig at the Porijazz festival Finland in July: will we see a jazzy Elvis or the rocking Elvis?

Objectively, do you agree? I hope the cold didn't bother you too much. It has been awhile since I last saw you with Pete. I forgot what a great drummer he is. How did you come to choose Davey Faragher? I only knew of him through his work with Cracker- he seemed to fit right in with the rest of the band. You don't happen to know his hometown, do you? Got a pint of Newcastle riding on this one.

I've seen you in different incarnations over the years Spike tour, Brodsky, you and Steve and each time I am enthralled with the performance. Thank you,thank you, thank you! Anyway, I was wondering if you could go a bit more in depth as to which pedals you used when coming up with the tracks for your new album. Oh, and i'll be in the second row at your Wallingford, CT date and was wondering if i could please!

The final piece is a Danelectro Reverse Delay — which is creates a mad effect but I like it sometimes. Did you see Fat Dawg while you were in town,or is that your usual collection of misfit guitars? Nice to hear the new stuff as well as things I don't think I've ever heard you play live. Your guitar playing gets better everytime I see you. Do you practice and study,or is it just osmosis and maturation?

I just went to see you in Portland and Seattle. It was amazing, especially Portland where I was very close to the stage. You remember! I saw you in Powell's Books, too, and said hi on your way out. Anywhoo-- it seems to me that you have a lot of fans who are under 21, and I hope that in the future you try to play all ages shows in the U.

I took my friend Ben, hoping we could sneak him in, but we couldn't- and he drove home alone by himself. What drama! It was a brilliant show, though, and I AM glad that you played such a small club. It was a very very big deal for me to get to meet you and see you play up close!

It's just hard to dance and jump around when the guy squished next to you has a full pint in hand. Hope Ben got home okay. Oh well, it saves getting up early to watch it on ESPN.

It's strange, since your older albums are new to me, having unearthed them from my parents' unearthed collection to suddenly hear new things that's over ten years later. I was just wondering if The new album has been released on vynil, or if not, if you plan to?

Also, Have you considered touring Canada anytime after the current tours. I will speak to IDJ about the possibility of releasing it elsewhere. We are playing Toronto on 12th June but there are no plans for further Canadian dates at present. Some people think that I'm strange because I'm a 14 year old girl and I should be into boy bands or something.

I love to listen to my collection of your music. It's just so wonderful. I wish there were more artists out there like you. But my question is where does the inspiration for your music come from? This is last is the most tricky to deal with as those feeling may not be that interesting to other people. It seems we are all too wrapped up in ourselves - some element of fantasy or invention can frame these thoughts better.

It is an inspiration in itself to receive word that two generations in your family are listening to the records I make.

Many thanks. Just curious. Also, thank you for the great show in Portland on May My only regret is that I didn't wait around afterwards as a friend did to say hello in person and have you sign a set list. I also read your journal entry, and whole-heartedly agree with your right to privacy once you have left the show. Frankly, I think your willingness to meet and greet after a show is refreshing. Again, thanks for the best concert I have seen in a long time.

Regarding your question, I would have to say Beethoven if only for the last five or so quartets but on another day I might reply, Shostakovich. Or Mozart. I'm completely interested, not very knowledgable as far as music outside of my own unusual tastes goes , and completely overwhelmed. It seemed like a good idea to ask you, since your listening tastes are extremely diverse. Can't wait to see you in Cleveland! Muddy Waters - Anniversary" - there are lots of compilations on Chess but look out for one with "Too Young to Know", "Still a fool" or "Just to be with you".

So time in your life you should also hear Robert Johnson. It is an interesting sound to create a "group" using one voice but it can leave a hole int he live arrangements. The excellent Liverpool singer, Steven Kennedy helped out on several cuts of the new record.

Davey Faragher is a fine singer and we are able have live vocal harmony more than ever before. Back in the studio, I'm sure I'll go back to the sound you like in time. Is my memory making up ideas again, or did this actually happen? If it did happen, was anything recorded, and is there any chance that we'll ever hear it? Most of all, thank you for the Seattle instore, and the Portland show - both changed my perspective on life as a whole.

We do hope you'll come back to Seattle soon! I'm not sure if it was ever recorded. I never cut it. I think we wrote it for The Knitters. I was sorry to have missed them the night we played in Seattle answered by E. The orhestrations were done by Fiachra Trench, as I was unable to write musical notation in those days.

There is a chance that some of this material will be considered for release by Rhino Records but there are no definite plans. Do you make a big deal of it? This year, I'm playing in Monte Carlo - which is almost the same thing. Was it intended for one of X's records or yours? I heard that it was the primary inspiration behind "This Year's Model". They always were a graet singles band. I can't find the chord. I don't have an instrument to hand at present but I think the guitar changes are E to A at that moment.

I was just wondering if this was because you had just bought the guitar or due to laziness? The guitar that I'm talking about is the one that you used to play 45, Spooky Girlfriend, Chelsea, and Alibi, among others.

Just a reminder. Have the band signed a record deal since they appeared with you? Thanks in Advance No concert planned for the Olympia — I was barred from that venue after an altercation a number of years ago.

Another Dublin date will be announced shortly. Listen to the 20 Questions. Your browser does not support this audio player. Have received an award? What award get you an Did like you article? What do what you you read? How is blessed your country?
