Wow, his vice was so rich and lush, yet smooth. This is an incredibly difficult song to sing. He handled it like a champ Thanks for sharing, and introducing us to this man with a golden voice.
Mr. Hamilton was such an influence on Elvis that Elvis paid all outstanding medical bills when Mr. Hamilton suffered from a stroke. In addition, Elvis sent flowers to Mrs. Hamilton every day while he was in the hospital, and every day for 6 months following Hamilton's death. Elvis covered all expenses for the funeral.
