My favs are some of the oldest, particularly Anyway you Want Me.    So innocent a title in those days.    Such a lovely song.

Too bad he left the building before our man became known. I would love to hear them play together. MK would love it too  ;D

Anyway, Elvis was a big Monty Python fan, too. One of his favourite movies was the Holy grail. He had bought a copy and watched it many times in his private cinema.
