Discovering Elvis through Orange
author: Bart van der Gaag
I,ve never been an Elvis fan. I guess I was born a little too late to appreciate the king. So Bossa Nova Baby is more Orange then Elvis for me. I can't compare, or even say that one version is better then the other. But I think with this CD it really isn't relevent. Bossa Nova Baby is brilliant in it's own right. I won't be converted into an Elvis fan, but an Orange fan.

More Elvis from orange!
author: Ulf Gustavsson
This minialbum proves that Elvis didn't die when he went into the army, as John Lennon once said. The best song is Bossa Nova Baby, here as a great Hammond organ shuffle. A countryrocking Moody Blue is a reminder, that behind Elvis fat productions of his last recordings, there were som great song. The other songs on this minialbum are great too, even if I sometimes miss the vocie of Elvis.

Orange deserves an international reputation
author: Jean-William Thoury
When John Lennon tried to explain to George Martin what kind of sound he wanted he said: "I want it to sound like an orange" A Swedish band remember this and call themselves ORANGE. Kent Wennman & Sampo Axelsson has recorded the album "Take a look on the inside", in a style inspired by both english pop and American country music. The band has also recorded 2 mini-albums with songs from Elvis Presley's repertoire. ORANGE & FRIENDS PERFORM IN THE GHETTO AND OTHER SONGS ASSOCIATED WITH THE KING from july 2003 had such a reception that a now comes a second mini album. BOSSA NOVA BABY & OTHER GREAT SONGS ASSOCIATED WITH THE KING with the title track treated well on Hammondorgan in the style of Georgie Fame, I really don't want to know, Moody Blue (fine pedal steel effects), Don't cry daddy (like a future modern country classic) and Stranger in my own home town, recorded live, also with a great Hammond organ. Nice song selection, competence, and real feeling. Orange deserves an international reputation.
