Little Egypt - Elvis Presley

In 1964, **Elvis Presley** recorded a few good songs, such as [Memphis, Tennessee](https://youtu.be/GFH5s2LlNto?list=OLAK5uy_k_29sprkezJLlhHPgRPrnS-YpiWyr9_xE ""), [It Hurts Me](https://youtu.be/ha76pJId5T0 ""), [Im A Roustabout](https://youtu.be/OezVvclUIn8 ""), and Little Egypt. However, these songs are only popular among his die-hard fans. The soundtrack recording of Little Egypt is one of the few highlights from an otherwise unremarkable collection of songs.

When Elvis performed Little Egypt again in his 1968 TV special, he dropped the bridge and gave it a tougher arrangement, creating a sense of menace. His powerful performance showed the intensity the song deserved, transforming it from a novelty into a magnificent piece.
