Yeah - it kind of depends on what kind of a mood you are in to pick a favorite. Some times I really like That Smell. Yeah - weird, I know.

While I was never an Elvis fan, I had mad respect for him.

So here’s the story on that, when I bought Street Survivors, I bought the 8-track. So I had an 8-track with flames on the cover. I packed it away and saved until about 10 years ago. Sold it for $300

I was not an Elvis fan when younger. But I saw an old video of Elvis singing How great thou art in his prime. It was incredible just how great he was during his prime. Late 60's early 70's he was the best ever nobody close.
