During the Too Much Monkey Business session,
we get to hear some pre-song banter between Elvis
and the guys after Take 12, and we get a snippet
of Elvis singing When Irish Eyes Are Smiling,
as well as Elvis joking with Jerry Reed about
the song Tupelo Mississippi Flash.
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.
