The movie version of 'It's Carnival Time' is a different vocal overdub take to that of the
record version, and that same version appears
twice in the movie, one with instrumental overdubs
of the intro and one edited version. In a letter
dated March 6 1964, it is indicated that Paramount
were not happy with Elvis' original March 5 vocal
on 'It's Carnival Time', so Tom Diskin promised
Paramount that Elvis would record a new vocal
to the song. It is unknown exactly when this second
overdub session took place but it was either on March 13, although Elvis would still have been on location shooting on this date, or March 24, when a new
tape dub ("short version") was made
for Paramount. The most likely date points to March 24.
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.
Thanks to Ernst Jørgensen for the information
regarding the vocal overdub of 'It's Carnival
Time'.
