Elvis tries his hand at psychedelia

[Motorik]

I know we are all loyal subjects of The King here, but perhaps you are unfamiliar with The King's foray into what sounds like a mindbending quasi-Bond theme experiment?

Should he have done a Bond theme?

Should he had gone further with the psych-pop?

Interesting. Not off putting. And Bernice, Betty, Susie is hot.

My parents had this in their vinyl collection and it was one of my favorite discs to spin as a wee lad.

Elvis did try, but he was too interested in it.

You think Elvis would have smoked crack?

 

[yabba]

he definitely should have gone further with the creepy humanoid dog people. like the CGI cats movie way ahead of its time.

So, it was just a dream?

That’s a hell of a burrito to eat right before bed, Elvis.

Elvis spines fused together?

Vic Flick's guitar sound and that 'spy chord' he plays at the end still thrill me after all these years.

She also starred as an (inexplicably minskirted) Native American girl opposite Frank Sinatra in the stunningly titled Dirty Dingus Magee, a film that gives Freddy Got Fingered a run for its money in terms of title and overall excellence.

It might be a listenable song if he hadn’t done that terrible vibrato most of the way through. It would probably sound pretty good with Grace Slick singing.

Too many fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches before bed.

Wow, that's something.

Wait...so Frank played a native American? The poster looks like he's a typical outlaw, but that photo has him dressed in tights as a brave?

I think he was culturally appropriating Native American garb so as to sexually infiltrate the Native American community.

My new head cannon is an alternate reality exists where he continued acting and did a a late-60's Easy Rider-like road trip movie with Ann Margaret, with performances of "Some Velvet Morning" and "Memo from Turner." Work in a scene featuring Hendrix and Nico cameos or something.
