Comment



This was a LIVE concert webcast from The Ed Sullivan Theater in New York City (the permanent home of The Late Show with David Letterman). Elvis also recorded 2 songs as the music guest for that show which aired on 2007-05-18. The first song of this webcast (Alison) was recorded solo, apparently earlier in the day, possibly during the soundcheck. At the end of the song, the webcast switched to the live feed, and Elvis and The Imposters could be seen taking the stage. The audience sat subdued and motionless until “Peace, Love & Understanding.” It’s a wonder how the band could deliver such a spirited performance with this stone-faced audience (it’s my guess that they were instructed to remain seated so as not to interview with the TV cameras).
