A song performed over 200 times on stage by Elvis, and performed at both ends of his 1970's live era. It was first introduced during his return to live performing in August 1969, and would be sung during his final live appearance on 26 June 1977 in Indianapolis. “I Can't Stop Loving You“ would find it's way onto four live albums during his lifetime, In Person (1969), Aloha (1973), the version from MSG in 1972 and a version recorded in The MId-south Coliseum in Memphis on 20 March 1974. This excellent version was filmed during Elvis' opening show of his August 1970 Las Vegas engagement, on the 10th. This is a wonderful rendition which was filmed for, but never used in, the original 1970 version of Elvis - That's The Way It Is. Two versions of the song were filmed by MGM's cameras over the course of production, with the latter was filmed during the dinner show of the 11th, although neither made it into the final edit of the original 1970 movie. It was however, one of the few new additions to the 2001 re-edited version of the movie, that had not already been seen in the Lost performances on it's release in 1992, and there is very little difference in the quality of either version, although the latter sees a far more relaxed Elvis with the opening night nerves long since gone. As with all of these videos, to get the most out of them I highly recommend you use ear /headphones, and turn the volume up as much as you dare!
