Thanks Kale! Now that you mention it, I remember watching that video. My daughter-in-law is a big Elvis fan, so I’ve been trying to add Elvis songs to our songbook. Some one chose it out of our songbook for our ukulele group a ways back and after playing along, I decided it would be a fun song to do.

This is a great tune. I did a version of it from Elvis Presley's birthplace last year. It's somewhere on my page. Nice rendition with The Slingers.

The click o’ the pick seems accentuated - makes for a really nice rhythm that drives it. Sounds good!

Thanks and agreed Uncle John. I must be too old!!! Although I didn’t move my hips “nearly enough” when I was younger either! I could probably could up my choreography game if I was willing to put in the effort. I’m normally sitting when I’m playing, but, on the road, standing seems to work best.

:) Good, old Elvis song! You sound good, but you are not moving your hips nearly enough!
