Crawfish

The duet with Kitty White in the 2nd verse only to be found in the movie and never released anywhere except CD's taken from the movie. The record version has a different duet.

The sound on this CD is just fantastick and what a load of lies to say there is no other recordings to put on this CD!.

One of Elvis' best movies IMHO. The script is good, Elvis' acting is good, and the supporting cast around him make the movie believable. Hope to be able to purchase the book one day. Still just a bit too pricey for me.
