It is a country-ish collection with western themes, which is a real departure from her early days singing jazz. Tardy worked with Sean Staples on the production; and on this track alone, he played banjo, bass, drums, guitar, and pedal steel. Versatile. Unlike the Elvis Presley original, this "Love Me Tender" has a little skip in its step. It is very much worth hearing.</p><p>:</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/1950smusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>1950smusic</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/bandcamp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bandcamp</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/bostonmusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bostonmusic</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/elvispresley" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>elvispresley</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/jesstardy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jesstardy</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/lovemetender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lovemetender</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>music</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/seanstaples" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>seanstaples</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/singersongwriter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>singersongwriter</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/skycitylullaby" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>skycitylullaby</span></a> </p><p>:::</p>
