nzoner 937 Posted February 1, 2018 Wait. Was BC not the lead singer on A.W? Or did we disallow that song due to release date uncertainty? Disallowed and what a focking album,I actually like the B-side over the huge hits 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Elevator Killer 522 Posted February 1, 2018 I've been considering trading a song for a pick. But I would probably want to let go one I didn't pick and giving up an early round pick for a 20th round pick would weaken my line up. I guess a 2 song trade could even it up, but time is running out. Plus I bet no one wants to give up their last pick this late. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No one has picked a song of theirs yet. I would like to know before I picked, because it could effect my next 2 picks. I have to get an Elvis and the obscure pick. But the more I think about it, my obscure pick may not be as obscure as I think. But it might still work. It might weaken my line up but there's a song sitting out there I like enough that I might do it. Let's see if the song you're waiting on happens. That gives me time to think about it and see if any other offers come in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Elevator Killer 522 Posted February 1, 2018 19.15 Kentucky Rain - Elvis Presley If it hadn't of fallen to me Elvis might have been left off. But the history of the sessions it came from makes this a must have for me. The 1968 TV comeback special inspired Elvis. American Sound Studios in Memphis was hot, producing Hit after hit. Producer Chips Moran of American Sound Studios had been wanting Elvis to record there and one day after his 34th birthday Elvis agreed. But Elvis had other commitments and said they would have to start that Monday. Neil Diamond was already scheduled and Moran said "Fock Neil Diamond." Col. Parker wanted the standard deal where the song writers would have to get up part of there royalties to Elvis. This was fine in the 50s where they would make a ton of money anyway. But by the mid sixties the singer song writers wouldn't go for it and the quality of songs Elvis had to choose from went way down. Add in the crap songs written for movie scenes and Elvis was stuck with a lot of bad selections. Elvis' genus showed during that time when he could take an average song and still make it a hit. Anyway Chips told Parker that they were there to make great music and if there was any limitations then the session would be canceled. Elvis was ready to leave Hollywood and start making great music again and sided with Chips. One of the few times he went against Parker. What resulted was IMO his greatest session. The Singles that came out of it included. Suspicious Minds, In The Ghetto, Kentucky Rain, Don't Cry Daddy and Rubbernecking. The rest was enough to create his two best albums IMO. From Elvis in Memphis and Back in Memphis. There was enough left to mostly fill up another album. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

5-Points 3,440 Posted February 1, 2018 My last pick isn't a favorite or necessarily obscure. It was popular at the time (77/78). I was 7 and it was Dad's weekend with me and my brother. He took us to a pizza parlor that he frequented because the bartender was hot. He thought he could score some points with her by bringing his two boys in for lunch. Well, 2 hours later my brother and I are bored, there's nobody in the place but us. My dad gave me .50 to put in the jukebox. You got 3 plays for a quarter back then. I put in the .50 and played this song 6 times in a row and embarrassed the sh!t out my dad who was an avid country music guy. We left after the 5th playing of... 20.02 If I Can't Have You - Yvonne Elliman 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
