Good Times - Limited Edition (USA-import)
Elvis Aaron Presley was born during The Great Depression into a poor family in Mississippi. They moved to Memphis during the early fifties, and as a struggling young truck driver, he cut some demos at Sun Studios as a gift for his beloved mother Gladys. These initial songs, of which he had only paid a few dollars to record, would become the catalyst that would kick-start the beginnings of a soon to be worldwide superstar unlike the world has ever known. The folks at RCA Victor knew that this young fellow named Elvis was destined for superstardom. They quickly bought out his contract and signed the legend to a long term deal, forever etching “The King Of Rock And Roll” trademark to his name. In 1974 after a plethora of chart topping albums and a bevy of number one singles, Elvis Presley returned to his “1968 Comeback” mode and recorded another masterwork “Good Times”. More incredible fame followed The King as more top charting hit singles like “My Boy” and the Tony Joe White classic “I Got A Thing About You Baby” soon became some of his strongest tunes in years, and made this Lp a very important milestone in his legendary career. Filled with more home runs, “Good Times” contains several smashes including the classics “Loving Arms” “Take Good Care Of Her” “She Wears My Ring” and of course the Danny O’Keefe classic smash hit “Good Time Charlie’s Got The Blues.” In honor of his birthday, The Man, the Music, the Legend, the King Of Rock And Roll, Friday Music is very proud and honored to announce the first time 180 Gram Audiophile Translucent Gold & Blue Swirl Vinyl release of the RCA Victor classic “Good Times” by Elvis Presley.
