When my parents would take long car trips, they always through on one of his albums, and I never really paid attentioned till' now. And I just picked up his best of and "my aim is true", which i'm really enjoying.

He's very good, I highly reccomend getting his first album, "my aim is true" or his best of.

I'm not too keen on "best of"s, but I'll check it My Aim Is True. I've been wanting to get This Year's Model too. I'm already a huge fan of "Let Him Dangle" and "My Funny Valentine".

This years model is the logical next step, MarshVegas. Go for the rhino 2 disc versions whenever you can.

He's done a ton of good work.
This year's model, Armed Forces, and Imperial Bedroom are all top notch, brilliant albums.
There is a good compilation album called Girls! Girls! Girls!

Check it out.

Great songwriter, great performer. Unfortunately some of his recordings sound very dated. Shipbuilding is one of my favorite songs but the recording has not aged well.

My Aim Is True is the only album I've ever heard by him, too. Great record though.

Love the song Mystery Dance. Especially the acoustic version in the bonus tracks.

Funny this thread popped up today. I was going to seed a cool Elvis show on dime this weekend. 5/20/96 at the Paradise Theat. in Boston, from an FM bcast. If anyone's interested, I'll post the link once it's up. It's a cool show with great sound and lots of stage banter.

Elvis rocks.

This is a dude I've been curious about for like 2 years. His catalogue is pretty overwhelming. I assume that starting with the early shit is the way to go?
