For those few who don't have it, here's Keith's version of the Chuck Berry song:

As a request, will someone post Elvis' "Santa Claus Is Back In Town"? (I'm not kidding)? This is a sleazy twist on the idea of Santa coming down his sweetheart's chimney, and I love it. Who's got it?

My all-time favorite Christmas tune. I heard the Bryan Adams version today in the gas station and it reminded me how much I LOVE this one.
Thanks BP !

bassplayer617,

Thank you. I'm grateful,

What was the flipside to this single? What year released? Can someone post the flipside mp3? Thanks!

The flipside is a totally drunk version of They Harder They Come. SOrry, can't post it now!

In Japan The harder they come was "a"side.

Run Rudolph Run = quintessential rock'n'roll...Keith at his very , very best.

Everytime I listen to this tune and "They Harder The Come" from the single flipside I deeply regret that Keith did not release a full solo album in the 70's when his voice was still intact.

Thanks a lot for the mp3 !
GREAT ONE !

It´s Only Rock´n Roll

Yeah all I want for Christmas is a rock'n'roll electric guitar...
great lyrics !!

A while back a complete collection of Elvis showed up so I d/l the lot, the files were compressed a fair bit but they sound fine. I figured that someday, somewhere, someone would ask for an obscure Elvis song & I would have it. Here 'tis.

Elvis Presley - Santa Claus is back in Town

Thanks! This has been a favorite of mine since I was a kid -- as a matter of fact, it was recorded in the month I was born (June 1957).

It is a shame that he didn't get more lead vocals in the '70s. Every vocal from You Got the Silver through All About You is wonderful. Plus Sure the One You Need and We Had It All.
