Our Take

Ah, the King of Rock and Roll himself, Elvis Presley. The hip-shaking, smooth crooning icon whose impact on music is still felt to this day. But what about the music that inspired this legend? Well, look no further than "Inspiring Elvis - The Music Behind The King Of Rock And Roll."

This compilation album is a treasure trove of tracks that served as the building blocks for Elvis's iconic sound. From the bluesy swagger of Howlin' Wolf to the soulful melodies of Sam Cooke, each song on this album offers a glimpse into the diverse musical influences that shaped the man, the myth, the legend.

Tracks like "Hound Dog" by Big Mama Thornton and "Mystery Train" by Junior Parker showcase the roots of rock and roll that Elvis would later make his own. And let's not forget the gospel-inflected tunes like "Peace in the Valley" by Mahalia Jackson that inspired Elvis's spiritual side.

So if you're a fan of the King and want to dive deeper into the music that made him who he was, "Inspiring Elvis" is a must-listen. It's a sonic journey that will have you tapping your feet and swaying your hips just like the man himself. So put on your blue suede shoes and get ready to be inspired by the music behind the King of Rock and Roll.
