"All Shook Up" by Elvis Presley. Written by Otis Blackwell, who also wrote "Don't Be Cruel", the biggest selling single of 1956, he wrote this when challenged by a fellow songwriter. He was handed a bottle of Pepsi and told "You say you can write a song about anything, write about this" and within minutes he was playing "All Shook Up" on the piano at the Shalimar Music Publishing house.
Here the Jordanairres talk about recording "All Shook Up" and then we here the song.
