The Wonder Of You (Elvis Presley) 6 Horn

The Wonder Of You (Elvis Presley) 6 Horn

The Wonder Of You’ is a 1959 Gospel-inspired song from composer Baker Knight. The number saw initial success with a recording by Ray Peterson, followed by covers from the Platters, The Sandpipers and an instrumental treatment from Nelson Riddle. Elvis took on the number in 1970 and his usual, bold orchestration and moving vocal treatment landed the cut at #9 in the US and at the top of the single charts in the UK. With Elvis’ love of Gospel this number found a home in his live stage show. The song is also the anthem for English football teams Port Vale and Ansenal.
