There's Always Me - Import CD

Thu Jun 12, 2003 3:01 am

Just wondered if someone could help me out with some take numbers from the CD set "There's Always Me - Volume 1".
The box doesn't list the take numbers for the following songs:

There’s Always Me

CD1

11 - Stuck On You (Alt. Take)
12 - I Feel So Bad (Alt. Take)
13 - Dirty Dirty Feeling (Alt. Take)
14 - Thrill Of Your Love (Alt. Take)
15 - Such A Night (Alt. Take)
16 - Are You Lonesome Tonight (Alt. Take)
17 - Girl Next Door Went A-Walkin' (Alt. Take)
18 - A Mess Of Blues (Alt. Take)
19 - It Feels So Right (Alt. Take)
20 - Fame And Fortune (Alt. Take)
21 - Surrender (Alt. Take)
23 - I'm Coming Home (Alt. Take)

Can someone help me out?

I know that all except maybe the last few have been released by BMG or FTD. I'll get more on the others later.

Can't fault Thijs077 !

'Fame & Fortune' could be Take 8.

Check out the great Masters and Sessions web site. Go to http://www.elvisrecordings.com and look at the session data for each song.

Why are Import Cd's called Import CD's - it's not as though they are all imported from somewhere - depending where you live :!:

It is just a PC name for bootleg or pirated copy :?:

Yeah, pretty much a "code name" for bootleg - not always, but often...

Yeah, 'import' isn't really the right word.

Better than 'bootleg' I guess.

I prefer 'unofficial'.

This doesn't imply that it is 'imported' from somewhere or that it might be 'illegal'.

So what is wrong with bootleg?

I had Surrender as Take 2. I'll have to check it out. Does he go for the high note at the end? I can't remember.

It's definitly not take 2, I just checked it with There's always me 1 and Surrender imports.

Take 2 is very much different according to the one on TAM1.

The site still works at my place.

You should try again.

Maybe it was down for some time.
