"Elvis Presley Blues"


I was thinking that night about Elvis
The day that he died, the day that he died
I was thinking that night about Elvis
The day that he died, the day that he died

Just a country boy that combed his hair
And put on a shirt his mother made and went on the air
And he shook it like a chorus girl
And he shook it like a Harlem Queen
He shook it like a midnight rambler, baby
Like you never seen, like you never seen, never seen

I was thinking that night about Elvis
The day that he died, the day that he died
I was thinking that night about Elvis
The day that he died, the day that he died

How he took it all out of black and white
Grabbed his wand in the other hand and he held on tight
And he shook it like a hurricane
He shook it like to make it break
And he shook it like a holy roller, baby
With his soul at stake, with his soul at stake, soul at stake

I was thinking that night about Elvis
The day that he died, the day that he died
I was thinking that night about Elvis
The day that he died, the day that he died

He was all alone in a long decline
Thinking how happy John Henry was that he fell down and died
When he shook it and he rang like silver
He shook it and he shine like gold
He shook it and he beat that steam drill, baby
Well bless my soul, well bless my soul

He shook it and he beat that steam drill, baby
Well bless my soul, what's wrong with me?

Grazie Tom! Grande come sempre!

CHE VOCE CRISTALLINA!...E pensare che ha 75 anni!

Questa mi era sfuggita (complice pure la solita, scadentissima macchina informativa -riguardo ai dischi esteri- nostrana. Sicuramente è più importante promuovere Fedez su ogni canale, ma queste meraviglie... silenzio assoluto!

Tom Jones, grande Stella Fiammeggiante (come il tuo Grande Amico Elvis), continua sempre a ricordarci quanto è grande la Musica del '900 che ancor oggi, nel 2015, ci traghetta tra emozioni e sensazioni postivissime (questo sound dell'Elvis Presley Blues è al tempo stesso molto moderno e underground, ma anche tipicamente "vintage").


Con questo post voglio pure cogliere l'occasione per salutare tutti, e scusarmi per la mia assenza prolungata. Ogni tanto sparisco... ma poi torno. :)
