Daddy Long Les sings and plays this four-chord classic that Elvis recorded in June 1961. I'm using a three-string cigar box guitar tuned to G.

    Yes, capo on second fret as the first two frets were set too low and the guitar buzzes like crazy.

    Capo?

    Yes indeed Les, I can barely manage to sound like myself!

    Jim, I learnt a long time ago that you're on a hiding to nothing trying to copy famous people's vocals. I'm sure it still creeps in from time to time though.  Thank you for your nice comment and the same to everyone else!

    Nicely done! Paul McC used to do a little Elvis impersonation but this sounds more like your own version of this.

    UJ that's my Britishness coming through there.  I would never presume to emulate The King!!

    Ha, Wes.  

    Very good!   I don't remember this one.   I think you sound more Beatles than Elvis, but you sure sound good.
