Well, I liked his movies, but not his music (except for maybe one or two songs). To call him the 'King' is a little over the top. He wasn't even a songwriter. But hey, if he makes people happy, good luck to them. Give me Elvis Costello any day.

Ah, well there I must disagree with you.

I think Lennon/McCartney were among the most innovative songwriters of the 20th century.

Some of their songs were pure pop, sure.

Brilliantly written, though.

And then you get stuff like Come Together, Don't Let Me Down, Happiness is a Warm Gun, the Abbey Road album etc.

Great stuff.

And, they weren't boy band wannabes.

They were all songwriters, and all played their own instruments.

Ringo's drumming is quite unique, and McCartney is one of the most skilled multi-instrumentalists around.

Boy bands hire songwriters and studio musicians to do all the real work.

Don't forget While My Guitar Gently Weeps or For the Benefit of Mr Kite,

but we could go on & on & on & on because that's how good they were over a short few years.

I agree. I think he was incredibly overrated. He didn't write his own songs he didn't play his own instruments.
I guess he has more in common with movie stars where people obsess over him simply because he is good looking and famous.

You must be referring to their early years.
From 1966 onwards they were truly innovative geniuses. Albums like Sgt Peppers changed music forever and, unlike Elvis, they wrote and performed their own music.

Three and a half minutes of substandard musical drivel

I get it, back in the day they wasn't a lot of choice and mediocre musicians like the beatles got a lot of airplay. But popular does not mean good.

Absolutely.

So much more than just a pop band.

Brilliant songwriters, and great musicians.

Anyway, here's some more for BigHole:

Yes. It's just that i've never met a musician who refer's to the Beatles as "mediocre".

And?

I have met a bunch of old non-musicians who think they are excellent, they were on constant FM Radio during the 80s, which built my hatred for their music. But like I said, just because they are popular (or were), doesn't mean they were any good.

They were just popular,as were a lot of sh1t musicians over the years.

Nothing to get concerned about, it's just excellent marketing overcoming mediocrity.

You're absolutely right. And the reason even their early songs impressed (like I Wanna Hold Your Hand) is that they branched out radically in melodic & harmonic terms from anything that had gone before in popular music and grabbed the attention even of musicians from other genres.

PS but don't get me started or I'll rave on forever

They were just popular,as were a lot of sh1t musicians over the years.

Nothing to get concerned about, it's just excellent marketing overcoming mediocrity.

Musical taste is quite subjective, however, musicianship can be viewed objectively (to a certain degree).

For example, a drummer that can't keep time wouldn't be widely regarded as a good musician.

Similarly, a guitarist with poor intonation would probably be heavily criticised.

Ringo kept excellent time, though, and George's intonation was just beautiful. Listen to his slide playing and string bending.

You might not like their music, which is fine, but to call them sh!t musicians shows extreme ignorance.

Tell us BigHole: who are some of your favourite musicians/bands?

He could (barely) play a few cowboy chords on the guitar, and he didn't write his songs.

He died young, fat and broke on a toilet.

Well, two.

Its totally understandable that most men are jealous of him- he was hands down the most beautiful man I have ever seen- and I don't consider many celebs praiseworthy in any way-but Elvis was different ! He was beautiful and he knew it- but thats ok!

Even placing E Costello in the same sentence is blasphemy GP-

I'm certainly not jealous of him.

I just don't like his music.

Plus, he was just a performer - not an artist.

Nothing wrong with performers, but I prefer the real deal.

jealousy is a curse- it so is

He could (barely) play a few cowboy chords on the guitar, and he didn't write his songs.

He died young, fat and broke on a toilet.

Meh Roll Eyes

and as for you just dying fat and broke on a computer chair dribbling your "genius" everywhere everyday- you did nothing with your life- but Elvis came from extreme poverty to rise to the heights he did- you are not only jealous- you are bitter- now I'm off to listen to more of the King- a real man

Elvis came from extreme poverty to rise to the heights he did ...

... and then die young, fat and broke ... on a toilet.

Certainly not something I aspire to.

If people liked him, though, good luck to them.

He just wasn't my cup of tea.

No, it doesn't matter that much.

If he made people happy, then that's fine.

However, he was nothing more than a cover band (Karaoke King).

And sure, the Rolling Stones started out as a cover band (their first album was pretty much all covers - they only wrote one song), but they went on to write their own songs and now bands all over the world do cover versions of Stones songs.

Performers are a dime a dozen, but it takes real talent to write your own songs and play your own instruments.

I have nothing against the guy, or his fans, but I'd say he's definitely one of the most over rated performers ever.

My kids even love him- not all of his stuff of course- Intro'd them to Elvis about 5 years ago- and as my kids are both very musically inclined they loved him- they recognised what they were listening too- and how good he was-

If you are going to judge an artist by their personal lives, then you probably wouldn't look at most of the paintings, read most of the books or listen to most of the music ever created.

Know the enemies of a civil society by their public behaviour, by their fraudulent claim to be liberal-progressive, by their propensity to lie and, above all, by their attachment to authoritarianism.

Indeed.

God himself (Eric Clapton) admits that he used to be "a real nasty piece of work" back in the '60s, '70s, and '80s.

But Eric Clapton didn't promote himself as a spiritual guru like Lennon did. If you are going to promote yourself singing Imagine then you need to back it up in your personal life in my opinion. Otherwise the song means nothing.

I've heard them all. What I still find interesting is George's solo stuff . George put the money up for Life Of Brian because he wanted to see the movie. He had to mortgage his house. He was a good person.

But Eric Clapton didn't promote himself as a spiritual guru like Lennon did. If you are going to promote yourself singing Imagine then you need to back it up in your personal life in my opinion. Otherwise the song means nothing.

As I said, above: I never liked Lennon, or his solo work.

I do. I've always loved the Beatles, Wings, Plastic Ono Band, George Harrison stuff but Lennon wasn't nothing to respect personally. And I can't listen to some songs. I can still listen to Cold Turkey . I like Kurt Cobain. There was nothing there that was fake.

I can't listen to that Double Fantasy album.

Give me Band on the Run any day.

I've heard them all. What I still find interesting is George's solo stuff . George put the money up for Life Of Brian because he wanted to see the movie. He had to mortgage his house. He was a good person.

That's George's son playing acoustic, behind God.

Yes. It's just that i've never met a musician who refer's to the Beatles as "mediocre".

A few guitarists I have knows said that the Beatles music sounds simple till you try to play it.

You can he's shot from George's gun barrel Pecca. I'm going to listen to that one again. Seeing that we've found a common ground in music could you please load Miss O'Dell by George up. He spends the whole song cracking up at the cowbell. You might get a laugh out of it. I won't bother you for another song. Huh

So why all the fuss especially when he's been dead for 40 years or something?

(Trigger Alert!)

He could sing and dance and act. Good looking. Talented. Heck, if Hugh Jackman was around 50 years ago doing his thing, he would be well liked years later.

Its about time someone posted a Topic like this.

Yeah - Elvis is very over-rated. It's obviously so - when they market him like a silly comedy routine in the way of 'Elvis's everywhere. But that's it, isn't it - just a merchandising gimmick.

My father is a massive Elvis fan. Roll Eyes

So much so, that I had to write to the Priest of a Church to say sorry, but I can't get married in a Church, because my Father taught me that

Elvis is King, not Jesus.

My father asked me what I would like in his will.
I answered "Your Elvis records."
His reply "Why? So you can break them?"
Cheesy

Look. The guy had a very very good voice.
But that was it.
He couldn't play instruments well, couldn't write songs well and he couldn't even act well.
But he filled a void in the Media-American world.

Personally, I think Katy Perry has done far better than him.
For one thing. She hasn't turned out to be a messed up, drugged out, loser.
But that could be said of a lot of Female Singers/Musicians in North America, who seem a lot more 'professional', than the males...
...just like Australian 'Sporting' Females compared to the Males. Grin

I don't like the Beatles.
And finally, Yoko Ono has been recognised as the 'Song-Writer' of the song Imagine. Sums it all up about that 'dopey' John Lennon.

I found 'European' music far more innovative than UK or USA (for the guys) - something which made Led Zepellin, Nick Cave and many more, what they were. Even Pink Floyd was inspired by mainland Europe.
But hey, Europe made Eurovision and now look at all the 'Song/Music' contests everywhere now today! Shocked

Elvis gets 2 stars from me.
Katy Perry gets 6 stars from me.

Let's not forget 'wacko Jacko' the 'Prince of Pop' (don't tell Prince that. Also another 'fruitloop') - the very 'Bad' little boy with the 'boys' afterall.

Purely subjective.

Well, he wasn't a songwriter.

He could hold a tune, and play three of four cowboy chords on the guitar. That's about it.

I've seen buskers on the street with more talent, to be honest.

Elvis was no 'King'.
The real 'King' of Music will emerge in Europe
and he will have all of the 'professional' attributes that go with being a real 'King'.

It's very hard to take male USA Musicians/Singers seriously.
The fact that in the USA they call themselves 'Artists' Roll Eyes

- yeah right.
ART is a 'visual' thing. So unless they exhibit a great video clip, they are far from it.
But hey, its USA - so much 'Freedom' to do whatever they like without fear of consequence. They even steal other nations Histories and depict them in movies to their own USA interpretations - totally inaccurate and corrupted.

Elvis is just a great merchandising racket now that thrives upon the 'mockery' of his existence. He became a 'joke' afterall.

Love his voice to bits and enjoy listening to his songs.
But that's it.
Nothing else to him really.

The 'Females' of Music and Entertainment in the USA have come out to be far better than the males - PROFESSIONALLY.

I think Jimi Hendrix was also 'over-rated' - he could make a guitar do amazing things, but what came out of it was a mish-mash of unorganised 'junkie' sounds.

USA would say Charles Manson was a great Singer/Musician, if he could sing/play a bit and made money for everyone.

I notice that the Americans who now come through via these 'judged' Music/Singing Contests that were started by EUROVISION - don't really scratch up when there is some real competition from around the world. Oh well, at least the 'Females' keep the USA Flag flying.

USA: Where the Black people sing like Politicians (Rap) and the White people sing Country. Huh

like cows 'moooing'

USA Music?
"If you can't make it, then Fake it."

Elvis: 2 stars (voice and shaking his legs).

Loved that DAAS clip Mothra. They were great with their live gigs. Saw them at Parra Tavern long ago. I felt honoured when Paul called me a "Westie ****wit!" and gave me the bird. Grin

Yes. We can give Elvis that.
Although his 'tour' was very cotton wooled.
At least he did better than John Wayne, Mohammed Ali and Co.

I don't mean to correct you Jovial but Elvis was stationed in West Germany in 1958. Long after the end of the Korean War. He still did his service though.

And some of their early songs i love to bits.

You're absolutely right. And the reason even their early songs impressed (like I Wanna Hold Your Hand) is that they branched out radically in melodic & harmonic terms from anything that had gone before in popular music and grabbed the attention even of musicians from other genres.

PS but don't get me started or I'll rave on forever

Correct. Lennon's voice was melodic, something quite new at the time for pop songs.

Led Zeppelin tend to talk about Elvis more. I think the Beatles influence for those bands is really only about showing that you can be British boys and still make it huge, rather than any direct musical influence.

I'm not suggesting he had sex with her when she was a child.

Isn't that the definition of paedophilia - being attracted to children?

I dont know GP you tell me- one would think so- thinking and doing are 2 different things though-

Once again, I'm not accusing him of touching her when she was a child ("doing").

But he was attracted to her ("thinking").

That makes him, by definition, a paedophile.

look who is talking Roll Eyes

What do you mean by that?

see if you can guess what I am thinking ?

Here's me, hating Elvis.

"I liked his movies, but not his music (except for maybe one or two songs)."

"But hey, if he makes people happy, good luck to them."

"he was just a performer - not an artist. Nothing wrong with performers, but I prefer the real deal."

"If people liked him, though, good luck to them. He just wasn't my cup of tea."

"If he made people happy, then that's fine."

So why all the fuss especially when he's been dead for 40 years or something?

(Trigger Alert!)

I never liked any of Elvis's songs -
his movies were C grade & boring.

The fictional character from the Koran?

Sure.

It's said that Aisha was a preteen when she was married to that particular fellow, so that certainly would make him a paedophile.

However, Elvis was a real person, so I'm not sure why you've introduced characters from books into this thread.

There are many works of fiction that have murderers, rapists, and paedophiles within the pages, but they're just make-believe. You do realise that, don't you?

The story goes, that he married her when she was about six, and then had sex with her when she was nine or ten.

Of course that's paedophilia.

I'm not sure why you even have to ask.

But again, this is about Elvis - who was a real person (not some fictional character).

By 1959 Elvis was finished as part of the nascent Rock and Roll phenomenon. A big part of the problem was that he allowed his manager, Tom Parker, to put him into the template made by Bing Crosby and Sinatra in previous decades. Both of those luminaries were edgy in their youth, but shifted to money making mediocrity and Hollywood stardom. The record industry was run by dags in those days. They predicted Rock and Roll would die, and when it did not, they tried to kill it. Real Rockers like Chuck, Little Richard, Bill Haley, Jerry Lee and Gene Vincent, had a hard time making a living in the early 1960s.
Hard Headed Woman (1958) was Elvis's high-water mark as a rock star. He said it himself that year:

"I'm gone, gone, gone, like hip-shaking King Creole."

I loved this one of his early hits and so do my kids- he has proved to be popular to generations of new fans over 40 years after his death-

That's correct.

He was attracted to a child.

As were Bill Wyman, Ted Nugent, and Jerry Lee Lewis.

Prince Charles would also go on the list.

So would Muhammed.

Although he was more into marrying SIX year old girls.
