      @Braeden Rosan although it sounds similar to him, it was Floyd Cramer, who played on many other cuts with Elvis, such as "It's Now or Never" and "Are you Lonesome Tonight?"

    Nice playing, Todd. What a treat it had to be, to play that famous piano used by some terrific early on rock pianists, while singing that Elvis classic.
    Check out the version of Big Hunk O' Love that 12 year old Rockin' Rafi did. He does it about twice as fast as Elvis' original recording, and in the key of G. Plays a traditional boogie bass line, but wickedly fast. Ah, the nimbleness and enthusiasm of youth, when you start playing at 4 years of age and later find out about rock 'n' roll. Blew me away when I first saw it. Just noticed it's here on TH-cam under: raffi arto walk off the earth
