WOW!!! Everyone has already compiled some great lists, but I'll throw in my two cents here... :D

T-R-O-U-B-L-E
PROMISED LAND
BURNING LOVE
WAY DOWN
I CAN HELP
TIGER MAN ('75 jam)

A BIG HUNK O' LOVE ('72 concert version)

I especially love T-R-O-U-B-L-E, PROMISED LAND, WAY DOWN, BURNING LOVE and that great rehearsal of SEE SEE RIDER from "6363 Sunset"...man that one rocks!!! 8)

Well this subject has been pretty well covered, but I would add I Didn't Make It On Playing Guitar, as well as That's All Right and Trying To Get To You from Elvis In Concert--which is probably cheating since those two are 50s tunes, but some of you all did that too. :wink:

I might as well add the Johnny B., Muddy Water, and Little Sister/Get Back rehearsals from TTWII SE.

Burning Love
Promised Land
T-R-O-U-B-L-E (alt. take)
Seeing is Believing
Cindy, Cindy (alt. take)

I prefer Elvis' 70's ballads over the "rockers". Favorite "rocker"? Burning Love.

I like quite a few of the rockers but I, too, love his ballards and gospel songs of the 70s because his voice was so powerful and passionate at that time!

However, my favourite rocker of the 70s- actually one of my all-time favourite Elvis songs full stop- is STEAMROLLER BLUES.... my oh my... I melt when he sings that song! :blush:

Yes, I love any version of that song - especially the Memphis '74 version. EP and the band are absolutely on fire!

Other favorites are:
