Talk about Elvis obssession! LOL. Seriously though. Amazing guitar work and an equally amazing voice. I enjoyed the High Kings' version but I stil think this is better by far.
Linda Thompson - I don't know which Richard and Linda Thompson Album it's on, but it's one of the most beautiful songs about The King that's ever been written. And Richard Thompson is a guitar god.
BEST VERSION

Music, like any form of art, can involve comparisons, with some works of art clearly superior to others. This is the case here.

Takes itself too seriously. Missing the humor of Richard Thompson's live version.

Sorry, Thompson's original version on the album is the BEST VERSION.

This is actually Eleanor Shanley's version of the song from the 1998 album Desert Heat (now sadly deleted).

I have actually been trying to track down Eleanor Shanley's version after hearing it on the radio ages ago - so glad to find this!

the album is "watching the dark" from 1993. He wrote it earlier, but unbelievably it had never been released before...

Wrong - it's not Linda. (It's Eleanor Shanley)
Right - Richard is a Guitar God
