Elvis Presley - I'm Leaving - 11/10/71 Boston Garden

[matthundleymusic]

Great song. One of the songwriters of this song, Michael Jarrett, is still actively writing music for bands like Michele Drey and Branded. His most recent songs have more of a country sound.

[Davewise1965]

Elvis is the greatest entertainer of all time and he will be remembered forever. Elvis is the one and only king of music.

[ColonelFain]

This was four days before we saw him in Tuscaloosa Alabama. Thanks!

[Ms77Bluestar]

This version sounds different but I love it

[oldschool525]

Honestly how could anyone NOT like this man. He had a rare form of charisma that you never see performers have. This man relates to his fan and a job well done. Elvis the one and only..........

[LerafoLuap]

The lads on backing vox take a while to get into tune...

[memphistenn77]

Where do you find this stuff i love you!!!!!!!!

[opencurtin]

Great song, great performer, he lives still on you tube .

[2008ChargerSXT]

@dellboy1010

Sorry, but "A Little Less Conversation" came from the movie "Live a Little, Love a Little" and not "Change of Habit"

[Davewise1965]

Elvis is the greatest performer of all time.

[apaladin]

FYI, later this year the 1971 Boston Concert will be released on the Sony/BMG Follow That Dream collectors label.

[AndreFTG]

Fantastic how his voice got so better in 7 or 8 months

[brendanbuyers2009]

This is one of many great Elvis singles to hit the Top 40 but quickly fade back into obscurity.

[JustaTouchU]

This photo is not from the 71 Garden Concert. I was there. I'll find my photo's then post them.

[GRACEORT]

@JustaTouchU Please tell us what it was like to be there watching and listening to Elvis

[comcor5030]

@GRACEORT it was great just to be there and see him perform , he was really great , and i was glad i seen him in person, words can't describe the feeling that comes over you when he came on stage, i grew up with elvis, he will always be the greatest.

[charlotte946]

@comcor5030 well a concert with elvis is something that we the fans who grew up on him over here in europe is sonething that we would have died for. sadly enough the colonel did never let it happen. so all we have is you who had such great pleasure in watching him perform to tell us all about.

wow those are truely some times to remember for you

[Moseslawgiver]

@charlotte946

The Colonel couldn't leave the States. He had murdered a woman in Holland and fled to the US, that's why.

[charlotte946]

@Moseslawgiver well all the dark sides about the colonel only came to light after Elvis died, the Colonel was a strong presence in the making of Elvis, bad sadly enough he was also omni present for his unmaking. We will never know how it would have been, had Elvis had the courage to remove this evel person from his management. . . .

[Harmonator1000]

@Moseslawgiver Murdered a woman in Holland? Too bad out of all the great fans Elvis' has, some of them are complete idiots like you.

[UNCHAINEDMEL0DIES]

Beautiful...!!!

PART 2

I agree there are many Elvis songs that are unknown but only because his record company did not take the time to promote them like they should have. That's the reason when we hear a Elvis song we've never heard before we say, Damn, that's a great song and it should've been a huge hit. That's what happened when people first heard "A Little Less Conversation" in 2002. It became a number one hit in over 20 countries. The next year the same thing happened with "Rubbernecking".

[donn409]

There's always the chance the dj was feigning ignorance of the song and was told not to play any Elvis music. Elvis had more Top 100/Hot 100 songs than anyone else in history. That means he had more chart hits than the Beatles, Michael Jackson, the Rolling Stones and James Brown. If you asked the dj to play "Don't Be Cruel" you would've gotten the same reaction.

[msmithstud]

a highly, highly underrated song of his. I once requested this song on an oldies radio station, and the dj never heard of it.

Unfortunately, a lot of E's songs from the 70's are unknown.

[iowa61]

Well, frankly, that;'s because this song is awful. Not as bad as "Mr. Songman" (the all-time low) but pretty bad. He did a few really good songs in the 70s, but even some of the good ones were tainted by drug induced performance (the entire Raised on Rock album for example.)

[shitbollocks]

He wore the black matador suit in Boston on November 10th 1971, so the picture on this is from 1971 but probably from Louisville on the 9th November or Houston on the 12th when he wore the white suit.

[SOUND0FYOURCRY]

Very great song...:o)

[auntyl6549]

love the vocals and song, should have been bigger hit, he could sing rock,pop,r n b with the best vocals, personally thought his voice got better with time, more soul. Post 73 was part of him his life, glad he did sing and perform to end ot it.

[ThePuma1968]

Really a shame they don´t release much from after 1973. We just want to see and hear everything Elvis did!

[CSTANCHIK]

its because of people such as sean shaver that any quality photos of elvis presley exsist after 1973. the people at graceland dont want anything of elvis released after 1973. his best years were 1974-77 when he proved his critics wrong for harrasing him for gain ing all that weight. cstanchik

[Burner1966]

@CSTANCHIK Elvis' best years where the 50's 60's and 70's. I Love em all, and I'm Leavin' is brilliant. I have the FTD of this concert on it's way, I can't wait.......

[roypolman]

elvis is mijn bijbel

[elviskingintheworld]

Elvis is GOD!!!!

[slagroomtompouce]

he is greater than god he is the best

[elviskingintheworld]

Klasse Aufnahme!!!Danke!!!

Elvis,WONDERFUUUUUUL!!

[hollandgroupc2008]

why is everyone moaning - it is not an official proper recording. this is just a soundboard, semi-professional recording so of course it wont match the sound quality of say the studio verison.

[marko66t]

It matters not, we all know Elvis can sing a song, fool around with it but whatever he does, its still more awsome than any other rival at their best. PERIOD!!

[EderHBEder]

bealtiful song...brilliant version...!!!

[MJL3764]

The power of zhazam !

[molliech]

id like to feel the emptiness inside him..

[Pallindrom27]

This DOES have a great sound!

SOME people get so attached to every nuance of the studio version that they wont accept ANYTHING different even when it's the artist himself doing the changes!

Chill out and enjoy a really cool version of a really cool song.

[tommyboo21]

For a 1971 live recording, this is brilliant. Elvis and his band perform this track superbly. Almost as good as the studio version! And that's saying something! I would give anything to have been there in the audience. But, I was just a little boy then.

[bobbiejhj]

I THINK HE SOUNDS FINE

[GKRENKEL]

Its a bad sound mix..

thats why it doesn't sound perfect.

[AndJusticeForMe]

This sounds as if its done by a bad Vegas impersonator. Gotta feel sorry for Elvis on this one.

[nobbycampbell]

He couldn't be perfect every time. Give the guy a break.

[damianoitaliano89]

the mix is bad, and nothing else. all you hear in radio is made in studio and nowaday's performers know nothing about singing, but KING STILL ROCKS!

[elvisgurl2389]

He does sound different....I heard him sing this on a different youtube video and he sounds much better...this is a sad song...and i think it really touches himself personally...

[daltonliwanpo]

he sounds  a little sick
