Has Anyone Ever Used A Roulette Computer

ELVIS PRESLEY: "Elvis Presley" (1956-RCA)

The beginning of everything? Is the most influential album in the history of Rock'n'Roll? I do not follow, the answer is clear to the undersigned.
With this kind of thing, objectivity explodes. An album that would undoubtedly lead me to a desert island, if only I could take one, in fierce competition with "From Elvis in Memphis."
I think there is a before and after in the history of rock and popular music when editing the first Elvis album for RCA. Of course, his time with Sun Records is to remove their hats, kneel and clean his boots Tupelo genius. The number of classics that came out of the small study of Memphis is a priceless delicacy, but Elvis needed the final stepping stone to obliterate everything that lay ahead, take the Rock'n'Roll to the whole yankee, proclaimed the first rock star in history and be the absolute King business.
And that's what this evil artifact. The poison of the rock mass infesting American social.

Nothing could stop this phenomenon with such overwhelming material contained on this album recorded in January 56. It would be absurd to detail any of the songs present on this album. Here is just a classic after another. Only include songs like "Blue Suede Shoes, "" I got a woman "," Tryin 'to get to you "," Tutti Frutti "and" Money Honey "and I drool on the floor. Even this LP is allowed the luxury of not having two singles as "Heartbreak Hotel" and "Hound Dog", which literally swept the Billboard charts in that unforgettable year, which put Elvis on top of the sky.
This album marked the perfect weapon to put in place Rock'n'Roll in full swing and would, over the years, a job that many of our heroes want to follow in the footsteps of the King, and if not they should ask to Jagger, Plant, McCartney and company. Such is the influence of this artifact, which the cover has been more or less cloned by artists like The Clash and Tom Waits.
If you flatter yourselves to love rock'n'roll and still do not have this disc in your hands, sincerely and do not deserve the pity of the gods, he even had to kneel down before the greatest artist of the twentieth century. Amen!
