The first session tape is (was?) missing. There may have been another version of Wild in the Country. The released version was marked "record version" on the log and why does take 1 include the full group? |
|
|
|
The stereo outtake of Lonely Man (record version) on 'Movie Session Memories' seems to come from a hissy tape or an acetate and is poorly restored. Hopefully this has been released elsewhere. |
|
|
|
The TCB CD 'The Complete Wild in the Country Sessions' is actually a pretty good source, although noisy, for this material if the pitch is corrected and only one channel kept. It runs a little more than 5% too fast, which is a lot. The Laurel LP 'In My Way', with only some takes, is even better. The Laurel double LP with the session is unfortunately not that flawless. On 'Elvis Meets Presley', noisy and 2% too slow, but great stereo versions without echo can be found of In My Way take 2 (first note missing) and Forget Me Never take 3 (master). Stay away from the "Radio Recordes Luxembourg" CD 'Wild in the Country Sessions' (PEWCCD129) since it has the worst kind of noise reduction! |
|
|
|
It may appear that there was a left channel guitar overdub on Forget Me Never. This can be heard on the CDs 'Elvis For Everyone' and 'Elvis Meets Presley', but not on 'Double Features'. This responding guitar is however present on the releases that were mastered from the mono session tape. So it probably was removed for the 'Double Features' release rather than overdubbed in the first place. |
|
|
|
The stereo version of Wild in the Country with overdubbed maracas was probably not overdubbed during the original session. Tunzi says it was overdubbed by Boots Randolph during the post production of the movie. Some lists this overdub version to be take 40, but that is surely because a "take 40" announcement by Elvis(!) had been poorly added to the overdubbed Wild in the Country on the bootleg LP 'From the Beach to the Bayou' and perhaps others. The "take 40" announcement was naturally a joke and is actually preceeded by an interrupted "take 15" announcement by the engineer. The announcement sounds like it's from a 1950's session and can probably be identified. |
