2. Elvis Presley – Elvis Presley [1956]
It's all too easy to remember Elvis as the fat cheesburger munching junkie who stole music from black people and became the acceptable face of rock n roll blah blah blah, but the guy could belt out a tune when he wanted to and this album is chock full of them. Obviously Blue Suede Shoes is the standout here but there's plenty more on offer as Elvis rocks and croons his way through this 12 song set.
Nice cover too, seem to remember seeing it on some punk album as well.
Really enjoyed this one.
Rating 4 / 5
