To be in this club you muist be a rock era singer and be an amazing
singer who is equally amazing while singing a ballad or a rocker

So that leaves out giants

Little Richard
Chuck Berry
Jerry Lee Lewis

How about

Buddy Holly
Dion
Ricky Nelson
John Lennon
Paul McCartney
J.C Fogerty
Brenda Lee

Davis is too busy trying to fuck his own clients. And I don't mean "cheat."

Would somebody please explain to me the relevance of this thread topic to
recordings of classical music? Elvis recorded a popular song somewhat based
"Plaisir d'Amour" by Jean Paul Martini, but that's about it.

It would be nice if the explanation could be cogent and persuasive, free from
ad hominems and profanity, and posted by somebody who is not in my killfile,
but I don't reasonably expect it.

If not almost everybody was in your killfile you would have noticed that most
posts, threads and topics have no relevance to recordings of classical music.
Why do you need an explanation for this one? You know who has posted it.

"It's Now Or Never" has a Neapolitan feel to it.

Maybe he means Peter Hoffman's pop ouvre.

Also "Love Me Tender," based on "Aura Lee," and "It's Now or Never,"
based on "O Solo Mio."

"Are You Lonesome Tonight" was a popular song from very early in the
20th century, but now I'm reaching.

I don't know if I have the honour to be in your killfile, but Roger
Daltrey sang in a TV production of The Beggar's Opera. I think that's
closer to topic than anything in the Elvis oeuvre.

to the OP - I'm not sure what a 'ballad' is - would 'Behind Blue Eyes'
count?

He played Liszt, too, singing the Liebestraum.

The Beggar's Opera is considered a "ballad opera."

Can you explain why you regard these songs to be classical music or something
like that?
