Elvis Presley 1956
This self titled album was
the King’s first recorded album. This first album launched Elvis’s career and
stardom. Today people still considered Elvis Presley as the King of Rock N
Roll, which is fitting considering the sex spell he cast upon the females of
the 1950’s according to many churches of the day. His music makes you want to
shake and sway your hips. In Tutti Frutti, Elvis’s spell is cast on me and I
shake my hips like Elvis did on Ed Sullivan. Even the songs that have a slow melody, like
I Love You Because, put you in a
daydream of Rock N Roll romance and calms your hips down to a sway. In I’m Gonna Sit Right Down and Cry, Elvis
brings out his country roots and twang. I think it is fitting since the song is
about losing a woman. Ultimately, in my opinion, Elvis is timeless and this
album is no exception. As soon as I started playing this album, my roommates
came out of their holes and began to discuss the how much they loved Elvis and
how Hott (yes, capitalized with two t’s) he was. Almost sixty years after this
Elvis released this album, masses of young women still idolize him.
