So many great songs on this LP, it's hard to choose just one. But I've voted for "Rip It Up"....A Little Richard original that Elvis turns into a powerhouse Rockabilly number, and makes it all is own....Great sparse/Rockabilly instrumentation and Elvis rolling at FULL STEAM!

Paralyzed: I love the range of voice he uses in this song and the vocal rhythm e.g. "a-hon-ey-child" and the songs just great in itself!

This is one heck of a rock 'n' roll album! One that must have made every 50's rocker envious. Unlike his first album, this one really comes together as an album and is a great collection of songs.
I voted for "Love Me". In my opinion this song was usually treated with so little respect during Elvis' 70's concerts that it became almost a joke. But that first '56 recording is a true classic...

Long Tall Sally for me (IMG:http://elvis-tkc.com/forum2/style_emoticons/default/up.gif) ...one that still got treated with some respect during those 70's concerts but nothing beats the original recording!

another tough one, i voted for 'anyplace is paradise'.
'paralyzed' ranks on a equal level, so do 'rip it up', 'so glad you're mine' and 'long tall sally'. my least fav one this record is 'old shep'. hugs, ellie -------------------- i don't suffer from insanity - i enjoy every minute of it
