Justin, Gurdip & Ryan break down Elvis' appearance on the September 9, 1956 episode of Ed Sullivan's "Toast of the Town," then consider the context and impact of the performance. Does it hold up? Is it as groundbreaking as it's often said to be, or has it its importance been overstated over the years? Also, Ryan gushes over Ready Teddy while Justin is delighted by 60+ year old dry British humor. Then for 1960s triple blast during Song of the Week, Ryan picks a trippy movie tune from '68, Gurdip rocks his hula baby in a minor 1961 hit and Justin's song is one of the most obscure "little" gems from the '69 sessions. Featured Songs of the Week Justin - My Little Friend Gurdip - Rock-A-Hula Baby Ryan - Edge of Reality
