Glenn Danzig‘s love for vintage rock is no secret – after all, he was privileged to indulge it by writing songs for Roy Orbison and Johnny Cash – but the American punk’s connection to Elvis Presley was vividly manifested only one, in his “Legacy” TV special. Yet five years down the line, the veteran releases – on April 17th – the album titled “Danzig Sings Elvis” and feauturing his interpretations of the King’s classics such as “Love Me” and, most importantly, deep cuts like “Pocketful Of Rainbows” that only true fans cherish.
It takes the fan to make it work, yet Glenn is that aficionado who’s able to provide new angles to familiar songs that run in the following way:
