From Elvis Presley Music walks to the corner of the studio, picking up his guitar and tuning it, returning to the microphone. At this moment his hands move across the strings, his expression changes. Singing or playing, his body is in tension. Elvis is completely wrapped up in his delivery. It is like an aura about him, and it isn't something that he turns on for his audiences.Elvis the perfecttionist is dissatisfied with one arrangement after another, he stops frequently, replaying a phrase, saying to the group at large, 'Here listen to this' adding a new variation. As Elvis practices matching his singing to the guitar, the rhythm is so infectious that the Jordanaires clap hands in the background, accentuating the beat, no one has suggested they do this.
Takes 1-12, take 12 is the Master.
Elvis Performed the number on September the 9th on the Ed Sullivan Show, just under a week from the studio recording, and unsurprisingly is very close to the studio cut. It's worth noting that Gordon Stoker can be seen playing the piano on this performance, therefore the conclusion would be that Mr.Stoker also played the piano on the studio version. No piano player had been booked, and the duties were shared between Gordon Stoker and Elvis. Elvis was the sole producer of his recordings, and he made the decisions. The producers names that are on those recordings..they just sat there in the control room.
