"Long Legged Girl (With The Short Dress On)" #63 6/10/1967

Elvis released a gospel album in 1967, which he loved to sing. After that, however, it was back to the grind of forgettable movies and even more forgettable tunes. He reached his limit with "Double Trouble." The soundtrack songs were recorded not in a studio, but on the soundstage in order to cut costs. Elvis even had to do a fluffy big-band version of "Old Macdonald." Things boiled over when he blew through this song in under 90 seconds, then stormed off in a huff. Even a King has his breaking point.
