Smelled like Gypsy Rose

Here is a bit of boogaloo. Big Ian channels his inner Elvis in this (mostly) acoustic performance, supported by Roger and Steve.

Audio of this performance also appears on a bootleg called The Biggest Bee So Far Vol 3, where the recording is credited to Museum of TV and Radio in New York City, for Rockline Radio, airdate: May 3, 2000.

Thanks to Musixita for the clip, to Uwe Hornung for bringing it to your attention, and to Tim Summers for the identification.
