Review: ME - The British HMV Singles '56 - '57 is a stunning 12" album bringing together in chronological order, all of Elvis' electrifying and now highly collectible British HMV (His Masters Voice) singles released between March '56 and March '57. This special llimited edition of only 500 copies comes in a 180g vinyl format. When Elvis signed his new recording contract in November 1955, taking him from Sun Records in Memphis, to national music giant RCA Victor, nobody could have predicted the influence he would have on the course of popular music worldwide. Elvis' pioneering, early UK singles were released on EMIs, HMV label before being moved by British Decca over to RCA/RCA Victor in 1958. LOVE ME - The British HMV Singles '56 - '57, charts Elvis' meteoric rise in Britain. Featuring recordings from Elvis' Sun Records catalogue and the now legendary RCA '56 sessions, 16 pure Rock 'n' Roll gems, pre-army Presley at his very best!

Review: The original soundtrack for King Creole is one of the best the Memphis magician Elvis Presley ever worked on. It was his fourth Hollywood movie and the story is based loosely on Harold Robbins' novel A Stone For Danny Fisher which tells the tale of a struggling Boxer. In the movie, that boxer becomes a singer played by Presley who also plays all the music, of course. It features r&b, Dixieland rock, jailhouse rock and plenty more gems which is why Presley himself said it was one of his favourites. It was also his last real dramatic role on screen.

Review: This year's Record Store Day is a big one for fans of the one and only Elvis Presley. LMLR France have put together a full reissue of Elvis' original soundtrack from the 1961 movie G.I. Blues aka Cafe Europa En Uniforme in France. This is a double album packed with alternative versions of tunes that have mostly never been on vinyl before. Only 1500 have been pressed and the new takes on the well known classics like 'Blue Suede Shoes' and 'What's She Really Like' have never sounded better.
