ive never heard this Bee Gees track before, sublime stuff Jerome!
these guys are always overlooked on those 'best of' lists for best songwriters,performers,songs lists....such a shame as they were as good as anyone, even their disco type material was superior to the run of the mill disco from the 70s

ELVIS PRESLEY "the essential '60s masters" cd set 1993
this one is disc two of a five cd set...
this collection contains ALL of Elvis Presley's studio recordings from the 1960s except those from his movie soundtracks....
he also has a 1950s and 1970s box set like this one....
this, the second disc in this set covers the studio recordings from 1961-63 and contains thirty two tracks...
included are several big hits including (maries the name)his latest flame, good luck charm, she's not you, devil in disguise and kiss me quick...
several of the tracks were later used in movies, but because they weren initially non-movie tracks they are included here....
disc gets an allround score of
2.0...which is pretty good IMO, considering that the period between 1961 and 1968 are my least favourite of the Elvis years....
selected tracks from the disc:

A band that I do not mention a lot but really like. Toto - IV. This album is a perfect blend of great musicianship coupled with catchy tracks - A blistering version of Rosanna - with a twist. And the best damn drummer I have ever heard. Period.
