Elvis Sings Johnny B Goode

July 22, 2021 | Music

Paradise Road Records presents Elvis Sings Johnny B Goode with recordings from the midnight shows from September 4 and 5, 1970. Some very nice audience recordings with almost the complete September 5 show and the best from a day earlier... Shows with a lot of fun, a lot of great live versions and some rare one-lines like 'La Bamba' and 'My Way'. Elvis also sings a part of 'Crying Time' and does some Bob Dylan Impersonations... This is an updated release from 'The Midnight Hour' (released in 2005).  Comes with a nice booklet with photos and info. A limited edition of only 500 copies.
