Ryan and Bec, for their annual team-up and the last TCBCast of 2024, decided to take a listen to Elvis' second album, "Elvis" (also known as "Elvis No. 2" in some regions) which, believe it or not, has not technically been reviewed on TCBCast! Together, they ponder where this sophomore effort, recorded all in a weekend in early September 1956 just as Elvis was preparing to make "Love Me Tender", stacks up by comparison to his iconic debut record.

Bec digs up more info on the recording sessions since the last time these were discussed, including other songs considered and some of Elvis's special celebrity guests who were present on one of the days. Meanwhile, Ryan debates which of the trio of Little Richard covers featured comes closest to matching the incomparable Richard's high bar. But first - Bec springs trivia on Ryan! There's no song of the week this week due to their busy holiday schedules, but after the album discussion, the duo briefly chat about their favorite Elvis Christmas songs and Elvis holiday memories.

Happy New Year to all our listeners!
