19 Elvis Fans Can Be Polled: The ILM Elvis Presley poll roll out thread

Here are the full results, finally.

Thanks! I feel like maybe one of my tail end votes went missing but don’t want nitpick.

Really enjoying the 136-ranked gospel tune, “I, John,” which keeps appearing in my Release Radar playlist, although it may be a “sweetened” version with a new backing track and vocals.

holy cow

Any Day Now was my #1. For me it's the pinnacle of the American Studios sessions. The band came up with an unbeatable arrangement (I love Reggie Young's descending intro lick), and Elvis's vocal is impeccable. BTW, Ronnie Milsap was working out of Memphis at the time, appearing nightly at a club called TJs, and Elvis went to see him several times. Milsap recorded over a dozen sides at American and was also a background singer on the Elvis sessions. He did a fine version of the song but doesn't communicate anguish like Elvis does.

Did Ρεμπετολογια die? otherwise I am confused:(

Yes, sorry. Rolling Obituary Thread: 2020

oh wow. I don't normally look at that thread. RIP indeed

Bunch of these showing up in one of my Made For You algorithmic playlists. I must have been revisiting last summer.

Unless the algorithm mixes various summers together and is reaching back to years past.

this poll only getting 19 ballots taught me a good lesson about the alleged breadth of ILM listeners. it's nevertheless a good music message board, but in essence a pavement fan club. RIP

Yup. Same for this POLL: Wishin' and Votin' - the BURT BACHARACH SONGBOOK Poll Results, speaking of Ρεμπετολογια's #1, "Any Day Now."

yeah, that one too.

I listened to Lonnie Mack's "Memphis" earlier today, speaking of something we talked about on this thread.

listening to the s/t debut and thinking about scotty moore's 25 watt echosonic, which is discussed in detail here with lots of interesting photos:
