Elvis Sings Jimmie Rodgers on WFUV

Post by docinwestchester »

I'm not sure, but this may be the first performance - it's not on the EC Wiki list of songs.

Sweet Mama Hurry Home


The entire show, which was excellent, is on Dime:

When introducing "Jimmie Standing In The Rain" at live shows this year, EC was often to be heard saying that the protagonist in the song was someone who had stolen Jimmie Rodgers' Act.

I do hope that by playing "Sweet Mama Hurry Home" EC is not heading down that same path leading to obscurity and penury.

I think more yodelling would have improved EC's version.
