There’s little of Elvis I do enjoy. When white musicians decided to ‘improve’ the blues they first 'cleaned it up' in a manner that I’ve never been able to enjoy. It wasn’t until LSD and other ‘inspirations’ hit the popular music scene in the US that things started to sound more ‘natural’. I know the term natural’ is a tragic attempt to describe what I hear but that’s the best I can do.
But hey, my perspective is probably warped by a being classical music lover (snob?) never exposed to anything else until Bill Halley and His Commets gave me the horrors at something like age 9. Yes, I’m an ancient old fart who maybe shouldn’t comment on anything later than JS Bach?
