Workingman's Dead, 50th anniversary - Grateful Dead

What a story behind this. A music school gives a jazz recital at a student's house. They are asked if their jazz singer neighbour can watch. The neighbour turns out to be an old woman in a T-shirt and cardigan. After the recital, there's a jam of Watermelon Man by the adults. And then this voice is heard. The old woman is Ella, unrecognisable in day clothes and without her wig.

It's a story always thought to be exaggerated or just a myth. And today the proof ended up on YouTube. I don't know if it is actually Ella's last public performance, but it's from the year she retired.

Talk about an "attic find!". So joyous and so moving at the same time. And, remarkably, the only performance of Ella singing this song, I believe.

This is great. Not heard it before.

a classic moment in Beetlejuice containing a song by Harry Belafonte.. seems appropriate today the day he passed, and Beetlejuice 2 has been confirmed

Just listened to and enjoyed the FTD release from, Lakeland, April 27, 1975 (CD 2 from the "From Georgia to Florida" release). A good show with Elvis in a great mood. He is good vocally in this performance.

I’ve started listening in order of date (1954 - 1955 - 1956 - 1961) to the live performances released by Sony and FTD. I’m now in 1969 and today I’m going to listen to the MS of 25th August. I was lucky enough to see 4 shows in 1969, but it still amazes me how good Elvis was singing live. I still have the reservation card, so I know that I attended the 13th MS and the 14th DS. But I can’t remember on which date the others 2 were. We were staying at The International Hotel and we were supposed to fly to Buffalo the next day to see The Niagara Falls and after that to New York to fly back home. But we overslept and the first thing we did, after missing our plane, was running downstairs to book 2 more shows, which was possible as staying at the hotel was an advantage. I don’t collect bootlegs, but as far as I know the shows which I attended were never released. I wish I had kept a diary, so that I would know if the other 2 shows were on the 15th or the 16th.
