Sessions III lists 'Gentle
On My Mind' as having backup vocals overdubbed
on January 23, but the session log shows that
as of February 4 (date
of the job number) no backup vocals had been
overdubbed.
Sessions III lists 'My
Little Friend' as having backup vocals
overdubbed on January 23, but the session log
shows that as of February 4 (date
of the job number) no backup vocals had been
overdubbed.
Sessions III lists 'Without
Love' having backup vocals overdubbed
on January 23, but the session log shows that
as of February 5 (date
of the job number) no backup vocals had been
overdubbed. The only other overdub session where
'Without Love' is listed as having backup
vocals overdubbed is on the evening of May
7 where brass was also overdubbed.
There is a page missing from the session logs
between March 25 and May 5 1969, and as there
appears to have been no backup vocals overdubbed
to any songs in May (Apart from May
6 & 7 where Brass was also overdubbed) it is safe to
assume that it is from March. The date of the
job number at the bottom of the March
25 overdub session log is March 28, so it
would be safe to assume that this missing overdub
session would be before March 28. The March 25
overdub session was for "Strings" and
"Backup Vocals" and was held from 2.00pm
until 5.00pm but it may well be that another session
was held in the evening of March 25 but just for
the backup vocalists (Sonja Montgomery, Millie
Kirkham, Dolores Edgin, Hurshell Wigington and
Joe Babcock).
Sessions III does not list 'You'll
Think Of Me' as having backup vocal overdubs
done between January 22 and January 24, but the
session log shows that as of February 4 (date
of the job number) backup vocals had been
overdubbed, indicating that backup vocals were
overdubbed between January 22 and 24.
Sessions III does not list 'I'll
Be There' as having backup vocal overdubs
done between January 22 and January 24, but the
session log shows that as of February 5 (date
of the job number) backup vocals had been
overdubbed, indicating that backup vocals were
overdubbed between January 22 and 24.
Sessions III lists that 'Suspicious Minds'
had backup vocal overdubs done on January 22,
but surely this cannot be the case as the song
wasn't recorded until the early hours of January
23!
