This is my favourite Elvis song and it's took me over a week to get the piano as good as it can be although i do intend to give it another go but for now it will have to do.....plinky plonky as it is.........the vocal needs recording better as…
Hook sent me two mix's and i couldn't decide which sounded better so i thought i'd put both up and let you decide....this one has a bit of age to it and i love how the Banjo and the Piano work together....let me know what you decide.....thanks…
