Notes :  * denotes as unreleased tracks
  • "Amazing Grace", take 2, wasn't overdubbed. The chorus was in the studio with Elvis and on some releases the chorus was removed.
  • "How The Web Was Woven", take 2, is actually not a take, but the intro and the end of the song are discussed, which David Briggs and James Burton briefly rehearse.
    Take 2 is announced, then the rehearsals and dialogue follow and then Take 2 is announced again.
    We don't get to hear take 2 anymore.
  • "Sylvia", take 5 / 6 aren't actually takes in that sense. First of all, Felton Jarvis counts take 5 as take 3 and says correction take 5.
    Elvis doesn't come into action at all, but again brings his gag "Dear Georgie".
    The same with take 6, which he announces as take 4 and correction take 5 again.
    But this has to be take 6 because then comes take 7, which we already know from Venus and which actually only consists of banter.
  • Before "Put Your Hand In The Hand", uncut master, the one-liner "I Want You, I Need You, I Love You" was cut in, which actually belongs to take 2 of "(That´s What You Get) For Lovin' Me".
  • "No More" is not take 1 of the Aloha version, but take 2.
  • The difference to the master of "Bosom Of Abraham" is hardly noticeable and consists of 1 to 2 seconds at the beginning.
  • And a humorous note: In the rehearsal of "How The Web Was Woven", before take 1, Elvis does a powerful belch that was mixed away on the regular releases by muting Elvis' vocal track.
    Here you can hear it.
     
    Announcement: Venus Productions is proud to present a new CD with unreleased, unedited, overdubbed or differently mixed tracks!
It’s been a while since our last release and we’re looking forward to bring you unreleased tracks in top sound again.
We’ll kick off with a paper sleeve CD that we almost forgot about and has been ready for 3 years.
