Today we receive the announcement and some sample pictures of Volume 4 in the great "American Way"-series:

Tired of press releases promising a lot but in reality delivering very little? We are.

So we won't waste your time with cheap PR talk here. If you have the first three volumes in the 'American Way' series you'll know what to expect from this new one.

For those who don't see the significance of the cover photo or the connection to the musical contents, perhaps a little explanation is in order. The photo, taken by famous Memphian Robert "Bob" Williams, shows Elvis, Red West and cousin Junior Smith cruisin' on Main Street on a summer night in 1956. It was on Main and Beale that the teenage/ young adult Elvis Presley absorbed and soaked up the musical sounds of the City of Memphis. These influences shine through in some of his best ever studio recordings laid down in his hometown. Sun, American Sound, Stax...those recordings echo the sound of the City of Memphis.

Also a little different is that part of the 16-page bonus booklet is devoted to '50s RCA paperwork, rare photos of the studios he recorded in and unseen pix of Elvis and Scotty at Radio Recorders - all under the heading 'Another Place, Another Time'.

Juhu, ich freu mich.

Aber das Cover ist eher unpassend, zumindest falls das Blaue mit der pinken Schrift wirklich das Cover sein soll.
