COLIN HOLMES EASY LISTENING SHOW FEATURING MIKE & THE MECHANICS AND ELVIS PRESLEY. APRIL 18TH 2017.

MIKE & THE MECHANICS...LET ME FLY....BMG.

Tracks played....

Let me fly / Don't know what came over me / High life.

Warm modern music from Mike and the Mechanics but apart from " Don't know what came
over me" no standout tracks that could make the charts. It might grow on you as you listen
but does lack a little excitement. *******.

ELVIS PRESLEY...WITH THE ROYAL PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA PART 1.
NEXT WEEK PART TWO.....RCA...SONY.   THE WONDER OF YOU & IF I CAN DREAM.

Tracks played...

A big hunk of love / I've got a thing about you baby /  The wonder of you / Suspicious minds /
Can't help falling in love / Fever ( With Michael Buble ).

I found these two albums that were very popular last year for a very reasonable price in
the bargain bins. Wonderful re creation of Presley music with the addition of the Philharmonic
orchestra....It works !  I'm assuming that Elvis's original recordings had a vocal track only so
that an orchestra can play behind the originals with just the vocal present. There are a lot of
Presley GOLD tracks missing and therefore there are some songs that questions their inclusion
on the albums but even if you are not a particular Elvis fan there is a lot of good listening
to be heard.********.
