Kathy Westmoreland Releases New CDs

With the recent release of two brand new cds it seemed the ideal time to catch up with our good friend, Kathy Westmoreland, to see what all she's up to these days.

Naturally Kathy will always be known the world over as the "little girl with the beautiful high voice", as Elvis referred to her, as she stood beside the sweet inspirations in the 70s.

Now, three decades later, we found Kathy to still be one very busy lady, and one Elvis would certainly be proud of.

The release of her new CD, We Had It All on July 18, is just what the fans ordered. As much as they've loved her two previous CDs, Heavenly Father and It's A Lovely, Lovely World, they wanted to hear her singing solo, on the songs she once sang nightly as Elvis', back up singer.

Her new CD, We Had It All does just that, and more, as she performs the title song, which describes their life together for seven years, plus a compilation of songs they were known for blending their voices on in the 70s.

Songs included on her new CD:

We Had It All
Love Me Tender
Help Me Make It Through The Night
Can't Help Falling In Love
It's Now Or Never
My Way
I Can't Stop Loving You
I Really Don't Want to Know
Release Me

The following are just a few of the projects Kathy's been involved in recently.

First she's written the foreword to two awesome brand new books (in fact she kids about going for the world book of records, for the person to write the most forewords).

First is Sandi Penchon's great new book, Raised on Elvis! Elvis! Elvis! which begins with Sandi explaining how she first met Elvis, when he lived on Audubon Drive and describes sitting in his back yard drinking lemonade, served up by Gladys. Then continues with how after moving, they renewed their friendship by exchanging kisses and gifts across the footlights. Sandi leads us through all her exciting experiences of being invited to parties etc after the shows, and becoming close to several members of his inner circle over the years. Including Kathy, who's friendship with Sandi still continues to this day.

Another is Bud Glasses "just released" hardcover book that is so beautiful inside and out that it could proudly be displayed on any coffee table. Elvis: Behind the Image Volume Two, like Volume 1 contains photos from the private collection of Russ Howe and Sandi Miller. Most of them never-before-seen photos. This very high quality book also contains numerous stories taken directly from the diary of Sandi Miller.
