On the CD "Movie Session
Memories" (FG 973001), rip-off bootlegger "Famous Groove"
spliced the intro of How Can You Lose What
You Never Had? take 1 with the rest of take 3, calling it
"take 2". There was a "take 2" announcement only on BMG's
"Collector's Gold" that it was appended to. Not only
pathetic, but a waste of time. All such home-spliced
outtakes will be revealed eventually. |
|
|
The movie version of
Confidence is divided in two parts.
The first
part is an
alternate vocal take and sung a halfstep higher than the
record version. This would nearly fit with officially listed
"first verse, vocal overdub". Until clarified, these options
are possible: |
|
|
(Reprise) may not be the correct
version title for the short acoustic version of
Clambake as released on Double
Features and as denoted in the book 'A Life in
Music'(Jorgensen). The second movie version is labelled
"CLAMBAKE (Reprise)" in the sequencing list reproduced in the above
mentioned 'A Life in Music'. This sequencing list has all
the songs in the order they were to appear in the movie. So
this "reprise" version seems to refer to
the second (and complete) version in the movie which is the
same vocal version as the record version. (The first movie
version is just an edit of the master/record version.) |
|
|
How the song
Who Needs
Money?
was recorded may not be possible to derive. According to "A
Life in Music" Elvis only did a cue vocal
overdub and
an insert
vocal overdub of a track. However, the rest of the
vocals must have made it to the tape somehow. It is
therefore likely that the "track" actually was recorded with
live vocals. Support to this theory is given by Tunzi's
listed recording date of February 21, while Jorgensen
mentions the track being recorded on February
22. This may be of interest since Elvis probably did not
attend the February 22 session. |
