Ready Teddy

An inspired album featuring mainly Elvis songs from his Sun Recording Studio sessions. The only exceptions are 'Riding the rainbow' and 'Take me to the fair' from his movie tracks. I made this because I heard a dreadful tribute programme which murdered these songs badly and were not sung in the manner in which they were intended. I have tried to recreate that echoing sound of the old fashioned recording studio, which I think comes across well in 'Playing for keeps', 'Anyplace is paradise' and 'First in line'. Dance to the rock and roll of 'Ready Teddy' as I did at our Wedding (what a night), where many of these tunes were played! Mick's son (my son-in-law now) was impressed with Mick's 'shapes'!

To play the tracks, use the virtual CD player on the right hand side of the track list. The tracks appear as they do on the CD (below left), but in the virtual player they are in alphabetical order. Just select the one you want to hear and use the buttons as you would for a normal CD player! For those of you using an iPhone, or other devices which does not support Flash, click the track names one by one to listen to the songs (as requested by my brother Eddy!).
