"American Trilogy"




The story behind him doing this at MSG in 1970 is pretty qual. Basically, so 'they' say, only Elvis could have gotten away with singing "Dixie" in New York City in 1970. At least, unironically. Hell, I should up "An Afternoon in the Garden" for the Obs.

Oh, and Bob -- DAT FUNGEEB!!!
