Note: Although the CD was available in many British online shops, it is a
bootleg.
The producers have apparently found a way to circumvent UK based copyright law.
But everyone knows that the songs were never officially played on the radio and
that they are concert recordings.
Liner notes:
Before the gold records, before the movie screens, before the legend was carved
in stone, Elvis Presley was a young man with a guitar and a voice that could
stop time. Live Icons gathers those electrifying moments when Elvis's music
leapt from the radio to living rooms across America and set hearts--and
history--on fire.
From the breathless rockabilly spark of "That's All Right" to the tender ache of
"Love Me Tender," these radio performances capture the thrill of discovery: the
sound of a cultural revolution as it happened. These live radio broadcasts are
curated to show the King at his most spontaneous and unguarded.
That unmistakable voice bending country, blues, and gospel into something the
world had never known, these broadcasts preserve the youthful energy that would
soon conquer the globe. For long-time fans, this collection is a journey back to
the days when a teenager from Tupelo was rewriting the rules of popular Music.
For new listeners, it's an invitation to experience the birth of rock 'n' roll
exactly as the first fans did: live, immediate, and utterly unforgettable. | |
