Unsurpassed Masters has a strange
stereo mix on songs from this session, with Elvis'
vocals in the left channel. These are possibly
taken from a 2-Track stereo tape, rather than
the original 3-Track tape.
Take 5 of 'Suspicion' and Take 3 of 'She's
Not You' on the Unsurpassed Masters bootleg box, are just the count-in's for these takes edited
in before the spliced masters (thanks to Dave
Barry for pointing this out).
'Suspicion' was released without backing
vocals on the 1964 Spanish EP Viva Las Vegas (3-20820). This was done by eliminating one of
the stereo channels.
'Suspicion' was also released by mistake without
backing vocals on the Italian single 'Suspicion
/ (It's A) Long Lonely Highway' (PB-9121)
in 1977, when RCA mistakenly eliminated one of
the stereo channels when mixing to mono. 'Suspicion' was again released without backing vocals
on the 1980 1st pressing of the German RCA release Elvis Forever Volume 2 (with matrix number CL
42853). When RCA discovered the mistake they made
a new LP master with new matrix number CPL 42853.
Take 1 of 'She's Not You' is wrongly listed
as Take 2 on Long Lonely Highway (FTD) and Elvis
Chante Jerry Leiber & Mike Stoller.
The movie Tickle Me features a different version
of 'I
Feel That I've Known You Forever'
with overdubbed orchestral backing and unique
vocals. Sessions III lists this version as a
splice of takes 1, 2 and 3 but this is incorrect.
There is no part of take 1, 2 or 3 from this session,
in the movie version of the song,
and it was probably recorded at Paramount Sound Stage in October 1964.
Different remixed versions of 'She's Not You'
can be found on Elvis 30 #1 Hits (E1) and The Top
Ten Hits.
In March of 2007, Sony decided to go through all of Elvis' masters. They retransferred everything and remastered all tracks including repairing as many clicks, pops, bad edits and dropouts as they could. They have used these newly mastered recordings on their new releases since 2007 including budget soundtracks, Legacy releases, the 30 disc Complete Elvis Presley Masters collection and the Franklin Mint package.
