I hear ya jazz....
There was a bit of sarcasm in a condiscending manner, I will admit that...
I'm a huge Presley fan, and yes, I will give the album a listen....if i feel the music adds a decent new element to the sings then I'll be the first to buy it for sure, if not, well, the Presley Estate won't care it will generate sales of his back catalogue....
That said, my hat does tip to the Executors of the Estate as their decisions in marketing Elvis' legacy are usually well thought out as to not diminish him as an artist....
Most of his work/recordings from his comeback in 68 until his death were also covers....he was IMO, the greatest covers artist in the history of popular music...
PS....good to have you back on board....!
