Best track on "Good times" LP 1974

[dreambear]

One or two Roger Whittaker songs would have made this album a milestone.

Let me help you:

You seem to be a big fan of Roger and I´m glad to give you this recommendation!

Kind regards

I proudly cast my vote for I've Got A Thing About You Baby, always brings a smile to my face

Loving arms...no doubt about that. A beautiful song, and sung perfectly. Looove that song.

TGCOH would be my second choice...

"Good time Charlie´s got the blues"

Several good songs on this album, both "Loving Arms" and "I got a feelin´ in my body" are great. So is "I´ve got a thing about you baby".

Elvis version of Spanish eyes is the best of the ones I´ve heard but it´s a boring song,
not even Elvis can save that one.

Lennart: I like Elvis' version of "Spanish Eyes," but it doesn't compare with the hit version by Al Martino.

Can´t remember that I´ve heard that version but I don´t like the song.
If you like it, good for you.
Please remember that it´s only my opinion that I share with you.

Some people on this board loves "Sylvia" I don´t.
Some people dislike "Snowbird" I love it.
It´s all about personal taste ist´n it!

Some people on this board loves "Sylvia".

Who?

[drjohncarpenter]

Feelin' so sad now...

[Lennart]

Some people on this board loves "Sylvia".

Who?

Can´t remember the name but a few years ago there was a guy on this board claiming that "Sylvia" was a soul song. I don´t think so, not to my ears, more of a boring ballad.

Perhaps some of our Brazilian friends "love it" since it waa a big hit in Brazil.

Loving Arms.

Good Times, is one of my favorite albums !!

[vbgt]

I always thought "My Boy" was one of Elvis' strongest performances

[dreambear]

"Loving arms" won in front of "Good time Charlie". Good taste!

Thanks for voting and I wish you all a happy new year!

Strange that "If That Isn't Love" didn't get any votes...

Yes. There are less good tracks in my opinion.

That misguided, delusional, sad character was our one and only "Jaykeisha"

Bless his heart. I mean, bless her heart. No, I mean bless its heart. No, uh, I mean....

We never knew for sure, did we?

Oh, that's Alizee !

It was Minkahed using a little gif of her in 2005 that inspired the thread dedicated to her [and others] in the Picture Section !

Talk About the Good Times, Good Time Charlie, I've Got A Thing About You, Got a Feelin' In My Body Loving Arms, My Boy, If That Isn't Love.
That's a great half an album, the rest i can live without

Well, 7 out of 10 ain´t that bad. TGCOH, SE & SWMR are also my least favourite tracks on this album.

lovin' arms.
but there are some good'ns on this album.
•i've got a thing about you baby
•i got a feeling in my body
•if that isn't love
•my boy
•talk about the good times
•good time charlies got the blues

[Kleisten]

I’ve got a thing about you baby would have made for a fun song to sing live. The tempo is fun and light and would give Elvis a nice break after signing a song the likes of Bridge or How Great Thou Art. The lyrics would also be easier for Elvis to remember than, say T-R-O-U-B-L-E which he had to read the lyrics to.
