Elvis Presley - Elvis Presley
The first great rock n roll record (and last?), for real. This is the type of album that sounds magical on vinyl, and yet it also sounds very appropriately old digitally. The vocals are incredible. Kicks in with the notorious Blue Suede Shoes, has the infamous Tutti Frutti, and is completely glorified by Blue Moon - Frank Sinatra can roll in his grave (but I'm sure we'll dig him up later). These are only the classics. It's also got One-Sided Love Affair & Tryin' to Get to You, actually, there isn't a bad song on the album. 28:03 of the original.

did you use the clash record because the cover looks the same?
yes sir, i guess the story goes that Elvis' record was the beginning of rock n roll, the Clash's was the end (hence the smash).
Respect the Elvis. It's 'er job!
