Actual Fucking Song
The Disco Hit Making Machine Had Just About Come To An End When This Song Was Released. "Do You Wanna Go Party?" Has That Same Fun, Good Time Sound As The Big Hits Before It. This One Just Didn't Get Much Airplay. From 1979, Party On With KC & The Sunshine Band!
A Superb Classic By The Beach Boys With CHANGED LYRICS!! In 1977, This BJ Thomas Version Was Released. The Lyrics Pertaining To Car Racing Were Gone! It Became A More "Generic" Love Song. Nonetheless, This Is An Outstanding Rendition Of An All-Time Classic That Made It Up To #17 In The USA On The Hot 100 Chart. Here Is "Don't Worry Baby" Featuring NASCAR Racer Jeff Gordon.
Paul McCartney tries to sing "Get Back" in German!
Elvis impersonator Johnny Rivers from Cologne (Germany) performs the famous Elvis tunes "Jailhouse Rock" and "Little Sister/Get back" live on stage. I think it's funny, because Johnny is pretty pudgy. At the same time, he's a decent singer and a good entertainer. The short speech between the songs is in German with Cologne dialect.

Trying to get to You (fantastic version)
In the last days of 1976 Elvis Presley started a 5 days tour from 27 to 31 of December.
It began in Wichita, Ks (27), Dallas, Tx (28), Birmingham, Al (29), Atlanta (Ge) (30) and ended in Pittsburgh (Pa), for a new years eve concert!
Now, over 30 years passed those concerts are mythical!
Not only those were, by far, Elvis best tour from 1976, but those concerts showed the King in a Top From, and are ranked among his best 25 concerts from 1971 to 1977.
The New Years Eve Concert was absolutely Outstanding (much better than the Pontiac New Years Eve concert from 1975/1976 that was a very good show).
Elvis was on Stage for almost 90 minutes, with a stage presence that everybody thought he had lost, made fantastic versions, with a voice that was better than ever!
You can't really tell a highlight from this show, but the 1977 part is, for sure, among Elvis best Stage presences from the seventies! Trying to get to you, Polk Salad Annie, Jailhouse Rock (yes!), Reconsider Baby, Rags to Riches or Unchained Melody are unique, breathtaking, FANTASTIC! And Hurt is a show toper that explain why Elvis Presley is The King of Rock and Roll!
And in the end, like he had done the previous night in Atlanta, Elvis give us a karate demo tho bring the house down!
Ladies and Gentlemen, sit back and enjoy one moment in Rock History: The King Live on Stage in Pittsburgh (Pa), for a new years eve concert, 1976/9177.
I'll upload near 42 minutes of that concert, in 5 parts, with good image, nice edit and sound, and some fantastic close up shots!
You'll be able to see The King On Stage like you never thought it would be possible in 1976/1977
