A Dream For Peace (Medley) [King's Dream Mix]
Wondrously, It's The Return Of The Memphis Sound in the name of Elvis Presley and Peace. The music industry, media, radio, and fans alike are scratching their heads seeking an answer as to how it is possible that Singer/Songwriter John Krondes has attracted all the original Elvis Presley musicians and singers to make historic new music. The worldwide releases are just starting, and NO JOKE, there are near 100 New Recordings by John Krondes and the Elvis Presley Hit Making Team. Thanks to Joe Esposito, Elvis Presley's Best Friend and 20 Year Road Manager, who for the last years of his life became the Godfather and manager of this project; and Rock 'N Roll Heaven, magically, here is the new powerful recording of "If I Can Dream" in a medley with "Classical Dream". Elvis Presley sang "If I Can Dream" in the '68 Comeback Special as a song for peace. The music and sound is eerily familiar, and with John Krondes on lead vocal is truly and really the original Elvis Presley music entourage. "If I Can Dream" is a featured song in the movie ELVIS.
Radio Stations and fans are happily spooked to learn and hear this powerful new and back to the future music really is Elvis Presley's players and singers joining with John Krondes to continue the legacy of the adored Memphis Sound.
On this recording A Dream For Peace is John Krondes with the American Sound Studio Band, all of Elvis Presley's vocal groups, The Jordanaires, Stamps, Imperials, Sweet Inspirations, Millie Kirkham, and Elvis Horns.
