Notes:

Press announcement:
After the first release in this series (25) CMT is proud to present the second volume , again some incredible brandnew, unreleased spliced takes are on this release and focuses on 1961; Elvis was 26 when he recorded all these great tracks.
As always, expect some nice surprises, since a lot of the tracks sound very different then what has been released before.
It kicks of with an AMAZING new version of "His Latest Flame" , in the studio they tried out different tempo's, these are combined here and the opening starts of slow and turns into a great new version!
Another highlight is the new "harmony" version of "I'm Yours", where the album version is harmony all the way, this version only has parts, it sounds fresh and to our humble opinion better then the versions released so far. "Follow That Dream" has a longer ending, using all takes available to get a different sound.
Also included is a spliced take of "Can't Help Falling in Love" , which uses officially unreleased takes.
We could go on and on, since every track on this album is something you have never heard.
