Why do people talk like Elvis died after 'Get Happy!!"?  "Blood and Chocolate" isn't even the  best Elvis album of 1986 ("King of America"); but from the first Steve Nieve organ riff, "Blood and  Chocolate" blows your socks off.  'Uncomplicated,' 'I Hope You're  Happy Now,' 'Blue  Chair,' and 'Crimes of Paris' are incredible and only a  few tracks are weak (I still don't get what all the fuss about 'I Want You'  is about).  This  isn't EC's best work, but an average Elvis album is a  hell of a lot better than 99.9% of the other stuff that's out there.  Buy  it!
