Still not something I would choose to hear often, but I do like it better than Take 3. Elvis sounds more comfortable with the song than on previous takes. Joe Esposito– percussion on "Take Good Care of Her" and "I've Got a Thing About You Baby" (uncertain) http://www.elvisconcerts.com/concerts/dboutput.php?search_tourref=search_tourref&search_month=search_month&search_day=search_day&search_year=1974 Elvis peformed "My Boy" many times (71 times) during the summer of 1973 and after (1974/75/77, it was a favourite of him! . All songs were recorded in December 1973, save for two songs that were recorded in July 1973, at Stax Studio, Memphis!. This lp reached Nº 90 position on the USA Billboard 200 Chart.At the 1971 Academy of Country Music awards, "For the Good Times" won in the category of "Song of the Year" (for Kristofferson as composer) and "Single of the Year" (for Price). [12] In 2014, Rolling Stone named Price's recording #18 on its "40 Saddest Country Songs of All Time". [13] Kacey Musgraves has said it "might be the saddest song of all time. It really breaks my heart." [1] First up among the losers is 'I Got A Feelin' In My Body', a fast-paced gospel number on which Elvis sounds like he is trying too hard. The song is not very good, and Elvis is unable to save it this time.

[14] [15] Charts [ edit ] Chart (1970) Although some may think it´s more heartful sung by Richard Harris, the version by Elvis charted much better worldwide, topping several Top Ten Charts! . Priscilla did move in with Vernon and Dee Presley, technically, while she attended the all-girl Immaculate Conception Cathedral High School in Memphis, but spent so much time at Graceland with Elvis, she was eventually just living there. The strongest number on the album is 'My Boy'. This dramatic ballad is perfectly suited to Elvis' voice and he gives a convincing performance full of strength and passion. Elvis also gives creditable performances on the country ballads 'Take Good Care of Her' and 'Lovin' Arms' but they are not in the same league as any of the country numbers contained on the classic ' Elvis Country' (1971).Actor Richard Harris performed the song "My Boy" at a music contest sponsored by Radio Luxembourg in 1971. Despite not winning the contest, Harris recorded the song and released it as a single later that year. Appearing on Harris' album of the same name, the song reached #41 on the Billboard pop chart and peaked at #13 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary Chart.
