Weird sounds in Elvis songs on records and CDs

[cadillac-elvis]

If we are going to turn this list into mistaken lyrics then we need to add a bunch of songs.

Anyway you want me.
I'm gonna sit right down and cry over you.
Until it 's time for you to go

and others

Explain.

As John as, "tip of the iceberg"....

Elvis oh Elvis loved to changed the words to songs as they were actually written or recorded by the original artist.
Even if he got them correct in one verse, he slipped up in the next verse.
And I am not even talking about outtakes.

This is different than "weird sounds" and would require a completely different list.

It would also require a new forum for this and a full time administrator to deal with it.

The 1985 "Rock And Roll - The Early Days" various artists compilation by BMG (the soundtrack to the video documentary with the same title) featured Elvis' 1954 master of "That's All Right" with a looped, faded-out, ending. Truly bizarre.

Who the heck did that ?

I don't think that "version" has been used again elsewhere.

In case you want to hear it, just PM me.

Another weird feature was the fact that the first two guitar notes of "I'll Never Let You Go (Little Darlin')" went missing on the 1984 mono reissue (AFM1-5198) of Elvis' debut album.

I'm speaking from memory, and this anomaly may even have slipped into some other mid-80s release.

Did anybody else notice this, and has there ever been an explanation for it ?

I can't say I've ever noticed it.

On the double features CD version of the Speedway soundtrack, at the beginning of "Five Sleepy Heads" you can clearly hear paper rustling. I'm guessing it's Elvis with his lyric sheet.

Ah yes, it's very faint though.

I've just checked. It's like that on the Sun Sessions CD.

Thanks, John. That was in the back of my mind !

Foolish and unbelievable mistake, ha ha.

Looking at the credits for the "Sun Sessions" CD, it was "mastered by Jack Adelman" with "audio restoration by Rick Rowe".

What a bunch of crap. Them folks just took the 1984 pattern and pasted it upon the 1987 release. It's understandable somebody could make a mistake the first time around, but to repeat the same mistake three years later, which means NOBODY in charge noticed, or cared to listen before release, just defies any logic.

"The Sun Sessions" CD - Longbox edition - 1987
