One of the most upbeat songs by Elvis Presley Promised Land I first heard this while visiting Graceland and it was playing in the background.

Wow. I can’t believe I’ve never heard that before. Adding it. Just what I’m looking for. Obscure or forgotten.

Chuck Berry's recording of Promised Land got airplay out here in the spring of 1965. Note the references to alphabetical prefixes to phone numbers, meals served to airline passengers and the view of Los Angeles as the Promised Land. Man, how times have changed!
