Comment

Solo. From the notes: Elvis was appearing on The Tube (filmed in the nearby studios Of Tyne Tees TV) along with billy Bragg and others in town for the "Red Wedge Tour". Someone from The Riverside had the bright idea to approach these illustrious neighbors and coax a free performance "for the kids".
Elvis was the first to show up.
"Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" is introduced as a "North Eastern folk song" because it had been a hit for local boys, The Animals.
