“A Little Less Conversation” #69 10/19/1968

The Elvis song that launched hundreds of TV commercials in the 2000’s. It was from the otherwise forgettable movie “Live A Little, Love A Little” and the single did nothing at the time. A re-recording was made, but not used, for his comeback TV special that aired in December ‘68; that unused track became the basis for a remix by JXL in 2002. That mix was included on a greatest hits collection and brought Elvis to a whole new audience, not to mention all the ad exposure. Co-written by Mac Davis and Billy Strange. The Wrecking Crew’s great Hal Blaine was on drums.
