EPISODE 104
ELVIS Movie & Soundtrack Review for KISSIN COUSINS
with your HOSTS Paul & Rob

Paul and Rob talk about the 1964 Elvis movie KISSIN COUSINS.

They go thru most of the songs from the movie in order as they appear in the movie and we talk about the plot of the movie (there is a sort of a plot).

They also play audio from a SKIP E LOWE interview with the director / writer GENE NELSON that is from 1990 (with permission)

This was such a fun movie for us to watch and review.

'Paul not only was on the podcast last year talking Horror Films (Paul is a writer/director of independent horror films like HUNT CHASE KILL and the LEGEND OF THE BUSHKILL WITCH) but... he's a huge Elvis fan just like Rob is ... so it was only fitting that Paul would agree to come to the studio and record this podcast.

We are releasing this podcast on what would of been Elvis' 91st birthday (January 8, 2026)

50 Years Ago Today Bob Dylan released this great album DESIRE. If you've never heard "Hurricane" you should... was controversial at the time (and maybe still is) about Rubin "Hurricane" Carter

****

Desire is the seventeenth studio album by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, released on January 5, 1976, through Columbia Records. It is one of Dylan's most collaborative efforts, featuring the same caravan of musicians as the acclaimed Rolling Thunder R***e tours the previous year (later documented on The Bootleg Series Vol. 5). Many of the songs also featured backing vocals by Emmylou Harris and Ronee Blakley. Most of the album was co-written by Jacques Levy, and is composed of lengthy story-songs, two of which quickly generated controversy: the 11-minute-long "Joey", which is seen as glorifying the violent gangster "Crazy Joey" Gallo, and "Hurricane", the opening track that tells a passionate account of the murder case against boxer Rubin "Hurricane" Carter, whom the song asserts was framed. Carter was released in 1985, after a judge overturned his conviction on appeal.
