A "False Start" at the the beginning of Take 14 of Rip It Up on 'Today Tomorrow & Forever' also appears on 'Flashback' listed as Take 12, this could actually be Take 13.

In March of 2007, Sony decided to go through all of Elvis' masters. They retransferred everything and remastered all tracks including repairing as many clicks, pops, bad edits and dropouts as they could. They have used these newly mastered recordings on their new releases since 2007 including budget soundtracks, 'Legacy' releases, the 30 disc 'Complete Elvis Presley Masters' collection and the Franklin Mint package.
