Box Tops and Elvis with John Hughey

Joachim Kettner · From: Germany

John Hughey is credited to play on "Movin' On" from an album posthumously released, but recorded in'69.

There's a version by the Box Tops from one year earlier with almost the same arrangement. They both recorded at American Studios with people like Reggie Young. So I guess it was the same steel player.
Interesting anyway!
