oldscudder - these are not actual sales but fans voting for their favorite and yes I agree with you. I don't get the popularity of this FTD at all. It has been #1 forever. Elvis sounding tired, not really interested, and the material being below par. I bet if they found all the missing 50's outtakes and released them, somehow Jungle Room would still be more popular.

Jungle Room #1. Good grief it's by far the worst of the 5. I thought the EP Blvd. was a low note for Elvis to go out on. I don't consider Moodey Blue a real LP ( just an Lp thrown together by RCA because they couldn't get any product out of Elvis. A EP Blv'd is a really maudlin work filled with self pity. i wish the last Elvis LP would have been more like Elvis Country which was his last really great work. In that way he would have went out in grand manner like Cash, Orbison & Tom Jones(if this should be Tom's last Lp). What does it say when Jungle Room out sells Elvis Is Back & Elvis Country?
