This fascinating collection provides the answer, bringing together 30 of the Blues, Gospel, Rhythm \u0026amp; Blues and Doo Wop recordings that inspired the King of Rock 'n' Roll.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElvis was always generous in acknowledging the Black artists who shaped his musical style, regularly naming the singers and musicians whose records filled his collection. Without Elvis, many listeners outside the United States might never have discovered pioneering performers such as Arthur \"Big Boy\" Crudup, whose That's All Right became Presley's first Sun Records classic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the early years of his career, original material was often in short supply, so Elvis naturally turned to songs he already loved, reinterpreting them in his own unmistakable style. Here you'll find the original recordings that inspired many of his greatest performances, featuring legendary artists including Wynonie Harris, The Clovers, Little Junior Parker, Clyde McPhatter \u0026amp; The Drifters, Roy Hamilton, Lloyd Price, Little Richard, Smiley Lewis, Ivory Joe Hunter, Chuck Willis, The Coasters and many more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore than simply a collection of great music, this is a journey to the very heart of Elvis Presley's musical heritage and an essential companion for anyone who wants to explore the roots of Rock 'n' Roll.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBilly Bunn \u0026amp; His Buddies - That's When Your Heartaches Begin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArthur \"Big Boy\" Crudup - That's All Right Mama\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWynonie Harris - Good Rockin' Tonight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Clovers - Fool Fool Fool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArthur Gunter - Baby Let's Play House\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLittle Junior's Blue Flames - Mystery Train\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Eagles - Tryin' To Get To You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArthur \"Big Boy\" Crudup - My Baby Left Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClyde Mcphatter \u0026amp; The Drifters - Money Honey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoy Hamilton - I'm Gonna Sit Right Down and Cry Over You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArthur \"Big Boy\" Crudup - So Glad You're Mine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLloyd Price - Lawdy Miss Clawdy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWilly \u0026amp; Ruth - Love Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLittle Richard - Long Tall Sally\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBernard Hardison - Too Much\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLittle Richard - Rip It Up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarie Knight - Tell Me Why\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlying Clouds Of Detroit - Peace In The Valley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmiley Lewis - One Night\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIvory Joe Hunter - I Need You So\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Robins - A Fool Such As I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVikki Nelson - Like A Baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClyde McPhatter \u0026amp; The Drifters - Such A Night\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLowell Fulson - Reconsider Baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChuck Willis - I Feel So Bad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Coasters - Girls!
