I remember this late show and I doubt BBC is capable of anything so great today

This song has been a favorite of mine for a while, but I just stumbled across this performance, and it's *stunning*. Thanks so much for posting these -- I look forward to watching the whole thing. As soon as I can stop watching this performance over and over ...

Now that I've seen this it has to be my favourite ES performance. So sincere and intense. Thanks for posting this.

That version of Let It Dangle is one of the best performances of music I've ever seen.

Had this on a VHS tape once, thanks for posting. Wish the BBC would release this as a DVD or CD, some of these versions are better than the studio versions on the Spike album.

What a performance! wauu

Screaming and interesting chord changes give this protest song a distinct EC touch.

Does anyone know what guitar he’s playing here? I love the sound.

What softcelltainted22 said. Incredible song.

I wonder if Elvis got the news that Bentley was given a posthumous pardon in full in 1998
