Happy Halloween. I recently watched Bubba Ho-Tep again and enjoyed it immensely. No one asked for it, but here is my version of the sequel mentioned at the end of the credits...
Elvis crosses paths with Marc Bolan and discovers that, he too, isn't as dead as the world believes. This is a road trip mix for their journey to visit Presley's baby girl, complete with oddball distractions and harrowing moments.

| 1 | Murder by Death : Steal Away |

I love the cello opening to this track. Some thing, somewhere is doing something. Vague, I know. My intentions are for this to be a good mix first, and the catalyst for a better story idea.

Elvis receives a mysterious scented candle, which he lights before going to sleep. DREAM SEQUENCE! He sees his long, lost wife and baby girl. Something has to be done!

| 5 | T. Rex : One Inch Rock |

We see a new character driving desert roads, outisde of Mud Creek. The driver (Mark Ruffalo ?) is singing along to this song and appears to be enjoying life to the fullest. As the song finishes, his car brakes abruptly in front of E.A.P.
This track had to grow on me. It wasn't Electric Warrior, a bit a.d.d., but I love it now and on this mix. SHOW MORE

"If you're feelin' what I'm feelin', c'mon
All you soul searchin' people, c'mon!" Very fun song. Sometimes, with this song on the mix, I sing "All you soul suckin' people, c'mon!" If you get a chance, check out the picture on the back of Ode to Sunshine. As if the cover wasn't bitchin enough... SHOW MORE

| 10 | Elvis Presley : (You're the) Devil in Disguise |

Too good not to add. The King needs one of his, since Bolan had "One Inch Rock". Now Nosferatu and Lilo & Stitch have something in common, unless Tia Carrere is cast, then there would be to somethings.

This is my dedication to Bruce Campbell as Sebastian Haff as Mr. Presley. Morphine nails a great track here. I especially love the lyrics, "Even in my home town

Neil Young cover by one of my favorite bands. There is something in Donahue's (?) voice that borders on earnestness and parody in this KRCW recording. This plays up the dynamic between Elvis and Bolan.

Scary Chase!
If I had to triangulate why I love this song, I'd say it falls somewhere between Josh Davis/James Lavelle atmosphere, Elvira's panties and Luaka Bop truffles. The album cover looks like a Brian Froud illustration - so you know that caught my attention! I love Juana's voice, where you find it in this song. SHOW MORE

LOVE The Black Angels. Saw them last Friday night. Fucking brilliant show! And how often do I type that? This song is a pedal steel guitar or cheesy keyboard away from being the house band, at the Double Deuce, in Roadhouse. Great energy - it gets me mooving.

Great to see tracks 3 & 10-12 on this soundtrack! Looks really inspired...

One Inch Rock indeed. I thought they were still Tyranosaurus Rex when that came out, but I could be wrong. As for 'Gimme Shelter' covers, there was a weird one in the early 90s, a charity single in the UK. I am wracking my brain for the name of the band, but I do know that the vocals were handled by of all people Tom Jones. It was very rocky and I would love to hear it again! Great mix, +5 for 16 alone!

An inspired idea, I wonder if my best friend (who wants to have Bruce Campbell's big-chinned babies) has seen this movie.
Great tracks. 16 sounds interesting.

Awesome soundtrack to what I'm sure would be an awesome movie. Almost an overdose of great music.
