*Prone to vary

1. T-R-O-U-B-L-E

2. Promised Land

There are many that are my favorites, but these are some of them.

* How the web was woven.
* Make the world go away.
* You don´t have to say you love me.

* Hurt.

A neat topic, Ciscoking. Also, that FTD release is an excellent release!

* You Don't Have to Say You Love Me
* Let it Be Me
* Mary in the Morning
* Promised land
* I Just Can't Help Believin'

I see it. I happen to like 4 of the 6 chosen there.

That said, he and I are going to discuss this at our upcoming dinner in Memphis.

It's Impossible, no that's a live track. Apologies.

Elvis was no longer really the king of rock and roll in the 70's as the decade was dominated by ballads. However he did turn in some good ones, although far too infrequently. My all around top 5 songs are

Burning Love
Promised Land
Way Down
TROUBLE
Always On My Mind - to me his best ballad on of the 70's why oh why wasnt this the A side!
