Hi Ed mate love loving you album cool elvis film think love all the elvis song on loving you cool list of songs keep up great work Ed take care my friend
Some comments: "Mean Woman Blues" was also recorded by Roy Orbison. His version is very different from the one Elvis did. "Blueberry Hill" dates from 1940. Gene Autry performed it in his 1941 film _The Singing Hill._ "True Love" was from the film _High Society_ and performed by Bing Crosby and Grace Kelly. "Don't Leave Me Now" was later added to _Jailhouse Rock._ Elvis did a new recording of it for the film's EP soundtrack. The reason the songs sound great in mono is because they were _recorded_ in mono. The later stereo releases used "Electronically Reprocessed Stereo" (in other words, horribly distorted mono).
Loving you is the first elvis presley album i ever heard. I owned the cassette in the mid 1970s and i loved it. i did not see the movie till many years later.
Hey Elvis friend nice intro! Loving You is a great album hands down! Was never a huge fan of Don’t Leave Me Now from this album. I always preferred the Jailhouse Rock version better. Overall I love it, right down to the awesome cover. I just ordered a red vinyl version of this still sealed from 2003. Can’t wait for it to arrive! I’m enjoying this series very much! TCB!
:) my Favorite songs from this ALbum are : TEDDY BEAR / LOVING YOU /TRUE LOVE / HAVE I TOLD YOU LATELY THAT I LOVE YOU / BLUEBERRY HiLL / GOT A'LOT O' LiVIN' TO DO / HOT DOG / PARTY / Mean Woman BLues / Don't Leave Me Now / etc. +++++++ I sometimes enjoy the whole ALbum +++++++
An absolute gem of an album. Here in the UK this was issued as a ten inch album and re issued (as 10") in France in the 80's. I have these copies too. Love the FTD issue too with the various different outtakes. Just a point of interest, to some, Johnny Hallyday covered Loving You, Teddy Bear and Party in French. He too said it was while watching Loving You he wanted to sing and perform and idolised Elvis too.
Hi Ed, I couldn't agree more about the sound of a great vinyl of this brilliant album. My copy is not in as good a shape as yours but the mono sound just jumps out at you and is awesome. I do LOVE I Need You So as Elvis's vocal is just fantastic. Thanks for this video series, loving it!!
i sort of agree with you on this album too, but i differ strongly on Hot Dog, i LOVE Hot Dog, always have, it's so frisky and "unruly" and Elvis' voice is raw on this song... first time i heard it as an 11 year old, it blew my hair straight back and it has stayed that way ever since :).... Blueberry Hill is better than Fats Domino's, but the latter is close, in my opinion... fun series, btw...🤩
Hi Ed, it’s funny but you like or dislike exactly the same songs that I do! You’re a soulmate to me?! Another interesting fact here is that the movie songs are better than the studio recordings. Great video, I enjoyed watching and I’m looking forward to the next one. Cheers 🥂 and see ya! ✌🏼
Always thought this was a very strong album. Love the sound on the 1957 monaural releases! I need you so and true love probably rank in my top (100 😂) Elvis vocal performances.
Ed I've got some Elvis albums movie posters and Dolls of him I'm not a collector like you but have some memorabilia. The original How Great Thou Art album and a date with Elvis album I didn't know if there was a way I could show you these pictures I've got an Elvis hallway of nothing but Elvis posters and it's posters like out of his movies Jailhouse rock Harum Scarum etc
Mean Woman Blues is a hidden classic , I actually have it on rare 78 released outside the states, some of these like Hot Dog and Party I can’t do,Teddy Bear is a keeper, TCB Ed ⚡️
As much as I like the LP, I wish RCA would have given the "Jailhouse Rock" soundtrack as an album over this one. I truly believe that an album of the "Jailhouse Rock" soundtrack would have been even bigger that this one. I absolutely adore the song, "I Need You So". And the title track, "Loving You" is a classic.
I prefer later elvis songs even early elvis songs that are played faster later on albums ,I like a few songs on early elvis records doe ,I like that your doing the records in the order they came out with cant believe the condition of your records I look after they now when I buy any records or cds but when I was younger they were thrown about
Hi Ed, imo "Lonesome Cowboy" and "True Love" are the weakest/skip Songs. @beside the original USA and Canada LP Pressings my Top Favorite is the orig. japanese Pressing on Victor LS-5048 such a super cool Cover and with a different B-Side (incl "Jailhouse Rock" and "Treat Me Nice")
Your right. The first time I discovered Elvis recorded both blueberry hill and white Christmas in 1957, I was disappointed he didn't blow away the originals by Fats and Bing. Although his performances of covers usually were better than the originals, not on blueberry hill. I prefer Elvis's original mean woman blues over Roy Orbison's cover.
back then, in the original releases, they should have done the same thing with the Jailhouse Rock soundtrack like they did for Loving You, ... but they lacked songs to do that, i guess...
These early soundtracks were just smoking the drop off to the 60s soundtracks was dramatic the Colonel rather went to cheap in house writers instead of paying Leiber and Stoller and Otis Blackwell
