Now that summer’s heat is upon us, while we drink all the cool drinks we can find in the house, we’ll have time to sit down and read our favorite magazine (Photoplay, of course). We turn the dial to our favorite radio station, and we hear one of Elvis Presley’s newest discs from his new album titled, “Elvis Presley.” This album includes such teen favorites as “Tutti-Frutti” and “Blue Suede Shoes,” which reflect some of the wild excitement this young man has caused in personal appearances. Only 21, Elvis was born in Tupelo, Mississippi, but now makes his home in Memphis, Tennessee. In the short space of a year, he has won all the trade-paper polls as “most promising new artist,” has acquired two Cadillacs — one pink and one yellow— a station wagon and a motorcycle, and his father has retired at the age of 39. Presley has been smashing box-office records in theatres throughout the South and Southwest, and his recent appearances on CBS-Television’s Stage Show stimulated an unprecedented amount of mail, Elvis has become, almost overnight, one of the most promising personalities to enter the music field for some time.
On Vik, a new label, there are a couple of items worth noting: The new Eddy Duchin album, and the new Richard Maltby album. The inimitable keyboard style of Eddy Duchin gave eloquent expression to the dancing hearts of the nation during the thirties, in such smart, long-departed dance meccas as the Central Park Casino. Duchin’s unique talent, which struck a responsive chord with all dancers and admirers of deft and sophisticated keyboard artistry in that era, has lived on through his recordings. The new Columbia film, “The Eddy Duchin Story,” starring Tyrone Power in the title role, commemorates his career. Also, Vik brings back the wonderful sounds produced by the magic fingers of this superb pianist in the album, “The Fabulous Eddy Duchin,” which provides the listener with the very best of his repertoire. Typical of his light touch and sophisticated appeal are the “oldies” included in the album which have proved as lasting as the artistry of Duchin, himself. “1 Cover the Waterfront,” “111 Wind,” “Too Marvelous for Words,” “One Hundred Years from Today,” “Pennies from Heaven,” and “Lights Out” are a few of the standards featured.
Every few years, there appears on the scene a new dance maestro who, by sheer innate skill and musicianship, gradually establishes a new legend in pop music annals. AJthough Richard Maltby’s Vik recordings have graced the dance
