So much better then several of the more serious attempts done by other artists. Hearing Elvis laugh is always great. Love it.

A jam session showing our boy letting his hair down and enjoying himself with his musical buddies. Not to be taken seriously and if he had lived a lot longer would not have seen the light of day. I enjoy it when in the mood for a bit of zany offbeat Elvis.

This is such a fun and unique song and Elvis' humorous jam session performance of it is a joy to listen to. Hearing Elvis laugh is always great to hear too.

Jam session junk. 1 star.

No star for zero aka 1-star. What a waste; why do we keep trying to push these on the fringe jam sessions?
