Elvis - Let Yourself Go

ORIGINATION 1968 NBC TV Comeback Special
LAST LISTENED TO last week
CHANCE OF WAKING TO IT getting high
RATING

This is a bit of an odd one, in that it's part of the extended fifteen minute Road Medley from this legendary tv show and even in that it only features for 45 seconds. None the less, it's about as rough, dirty and funky as Elvis gets. As well as his vocals which are rougher than you'd expect, there's big brass (of course), supported by plenty of organ and some southern-soul style guitar picking. It's a neat and memorable little moment from one of the high points a show which had more than it's fair share if them.
