Reconsider Baby - Elvis Presley

Originally by Lowell Fulson, but I think this tops his version. A great blues performance with IMHO one of the greatest 12 bar blues (times 2) sax solos on record. And when I found out it was by Boot's Randolph, it totally changed my opinion of that man.

My older sister was a big Elvis fan. She bought this LP and as a very young sax player, I heard the sax solo and it was like lightning struck. I didn't know it was the blues, but I knew I wanted to play that kind of music.

I later heard the original Lowell Fulson cut, and it was nice, but IMO the Elvis Presley cover was much better.

Was the cover charge too much on that first video Mesh?  LOL!

Apparently, it was a sold out performance....all the fishes in the deep blue sea loved it.

Been watching/listening to all his stuff this Am, and they all seem to be live performances....bookmarked his stuff.
