Notes:
|
Elvis
at his best, heavy feeling, rich tone, a smouldering plea somewhere between
nashville and the swamps.
This cut featured extraordinary vocal range and texture by Elvis and was recorded in the torchy mood of "I Want You, I Need You, I Love You". The fans picked it right off the Ep Elvis Vol 1 and made it the only song by Elvis never released as a single to reach the top of the singles charts, selling over a million copies. |
