[Marky Dread]

Elvis Should Play Ska - Graduate
King's Call - Phil Lynott
Boy from Tupelo - Emmylou Harris
Turkish Song of the Damned - Pogues
Jackie Wilson Said - Van Morrison

Whilst they are obviously about Elvis neither song mentions him in the song title. So don't count.

I'll give a narrow pass on The Pogues track as it was based on a misheard conversation.

[Flex]

1. Bob Dylan's Blues - Syd Barrett
2. Drunk Like Son House - Rob Jungklas*
3. The Night Hank Williams Came To Town - Johnny Cash & Waylon Jennings
4. Daft Punk Are Playing at My House - LCD Soundsystem
5. If You Don't Like Hank Williams - Kris Kristofferson

Probably coulda done a whole 5 about Hank, if I dug around enough.

*Recommended to me here years ago by the long departed (from this board, not this mortal coil, afaik) Sean Flynn

1. God Save The Queen - Sex Pistols
2. The Sound Of The Suburbs - The Members

Great Kaiser's ghost, you're right—two Austrians! At best, you deserve to be rocked like no more than a fading tropical storm.

Her digital recordings are way better than Anna Logue.

Her cousin Anna Glypta used to be a great producer but these days she just papers over the cracks.

Not sure where the resentment comes from? Austrians are basically well mannered Canadians, no? Like, lumberjacks that drink their coffee with whipped cream.
