Notes

The re-recording of Guitar Man (KWA5 8566) includes the original 'What'd I Say' ending that was faded on the original 1967 unedited undubbed master.

I would assume that You Don't Know Me, I Really Don't Want To Know and Help Me Make It Through The Night were all issued Matrix Numbers before these sessions commenced, but for whatever reason were eventually not re-recorded, so are not shown on the Session Logs.

These sessions were brought about to record a new sound to old Elvis recordings.

The result was a complete album entitled 'Guitar Man' in 1981. A follow up CD was released by the collectors label 'Follow That Dream' in 2000 entitled 'Too Much Monkey Business' which contained additional tracks not released on the original LP.
