Inspired vocals, a seducer’s voice, songs skilfully chosen without racial prejudice, and all the style and charisma of a performer whose stage-act left audiences thunderstruck… Elvis Presley remains the most famous rock singer of all time. Bruno Blum has compiled his recordings from the period 1954-1958 together with original versions of the titles which Elvis chose from the American songbook; the result is a comparative retrospective which allows a better appreciation of his immense contribution to the legend of an America which conquered the world.
