This has got to one of his greatest vox performances while at Sun. He wails and warbles, bends and breaks. Not bad for a 20yo kid.

 

I've got to learn this tune!

Interesting note from Wiki about this track ...

 

 

 

Recorded: February 11, 1955 (session 5, not published) and July 11, 1955 (session 7, published). In 2002, RCA included information in the liner notes of Sunrise as to Presley recording this song whilst simultaneously playing the piano, and not aided by his rhythm guitar, as previously believed. Because his piano playing was not up to the expected standards, producer Sam Phillips erased the sound of the piano on the master take so, in addition to Elvis' tantalizing vocals, all one hears is the lead guitar, the bass and the drums.
