Elvis is somewhat of an acquired taste, I think. He has a particular style that, to some people, might not seem ... I don't know ... "serious". A lot of his music has a subtle, "tongue in cheek" attitude.
I was surprised by his pipes last night. He had great range and power.
The best thing about it was that you could tell he felt "at home". It's not the first time he's played the Ryman and that audience really loves him. I just enjoyed watching him have a good time with his little acoustic band. They jammed on several tunes and, as I mentioned, the encore went on for a long, long time.
You go, Elvis.
