Tony looked uncomfortable to me and I cannot recall a time I ever saw him uncomfortable with a microphone. Elvis looked portly but sounded good, and while deferential, did not shy from the opportunity to show what he is capable of. I thought they sounded great together until the very end, when Elvis began to strain a bit. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed it, as short lived as it was.

Elvis 'n Tony sound great on the audio, Tony sounding appropriately croaky as befits his 'elder' narration role, Elvis sounding aptly ebullient is the 'younger' back-up role. The way they both hit the 'hey' and 'nuts' unisons really hits you, giving the song a rock solid hook. I hope the studio version is as good

indeed tony didn't look quite right. finally showing his age perhaps. sounded ok though, for 80.
I'm not concerned about the very poor.

Poor Ray Liotta, did no one tell him about the Curse of Elvis?
