scroll down (im not hotlinkin) for this elvis/junior parker mash up:
Only problem is, Elvis' record was swiped from Love My Baby, the flip side of Little Junior Parker's Mystery Train. Nothing uncanny about that, I'm afraid. (Tip for aspiring pop-musicologists: when researching, always listen to both sides of a record.)
And, here, I've interspersed the two recordings--Elvis' 1955 Mystery Train, recorded at Sun, and its, um, inspiration: Little Junior Parker's 1953 Love My Baby, recorded at Sun. If the result is rock-sacrilegious... oh, well.
