--------------------------------------------------------------------------- A Little Less Conversation - Elvis Presley --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: maguri Tuning: Standard Elvis Presley A Little Less Conversation (1968) (Mac Davis/Billy Strange) There are two versions around. One is from the soundtrack of Elvis’ 1968 movie "Live a Little, Love a Little" (in the key of A). During a recording studio session for the 1968 television special, Elvis did a new version of the song (in the key of E). It ended up not being used in the TV show at all and was first released 30 years later on "Memories: The '68 Comeback Special". This second version was used for the JXL Radio Edit Remix included on "Elvis 30 #1 Hits". --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.
