I love Elvis, especially on a Sunday. Feeling a little bittersweet blowing in the wind, I picked this performance from 1970, Las Vegas, before Elvis gained significant weight, but yet visibly influenced by chemical cocktails. Hes having a lot of fun, getting even square white folk with no rhythm to move and have a good time, but even without our knowledge of what was to come, how could anyone not see some signs of danger? My point is by then, Elvis was increasingly isolated from his real friends, and surrounded by yes-men and self-serving greed personified, aka, Colonel Parker. I love this song, I love Elvis, and I think if you watch this youll feel pulled six ways from today as I have. Dont let it bum you out too hard, because theres a smile with the tear, but let it make you think and remind you to insist on the company of those who really care. Take a lesson from the King... youll be mighty glad you did.
