Elvis! So recognizable! First time I've heard that one, but there wasn't any doubt after, oooh, one bar.

Many shows play the songs and mention the artist, but few if any, name the songwriter and give interesting background information on them which adds to the enjoyment for the listener. Great show, Ron. Was able to sing every word of Old Shep along with Elvis. Great fun!
