I like both but there’s a brilliant masters promo with the Simon and Garfunkel version being played in it which always stayed with me.

‘Then one night in desperation, the young man breaks away…’

Elvis singing that line from In The Ghetto is one of the great moments in popular music.

I saw this on the telly donkeys years ago. My memory is that it was one of the greatest gigs of all time.

Extraordinary that these chaps hated each other so much that this was the only one time they could bring themselves together for a reunion gig.
