Product Information

Spain released a 45 rpm of My Boy/Thinking About You RCA PB-10191 as well with a totally different sleeve compared to the U.S one but with same matrix!.

She was just wearing "a little sailor dress" that night, she later remembered to UPI, because she could still barely believe she was going to meet Elvis. With few exceptions, Elvis never did "My Boy" again after May 1975, despite giving almost 275 more shows. Here, we get a short rehearsal segment, followed by Elvis' first attempt to record the song. Elvis almost sings to himself during the rehearsal, an interesting listen just for the 'fly on the wall' aspect. Absent from the master take, you can hear a hint of bitterness in Elvis' voice as he goes through Take 1'. Just to be around her was my greatest pleasure, she was everything my future held in store', he sings sadly. FTD's version of Good Times turns out to be a fine upgrade of the original album, truly capturing the spirit of a collectors label by bringing the original cuts together in pristine sound quality along with tons of additional takes. Ten years in, FTD seems to have hit its stride, and its Classic Album series has become essential.Good Times is a 2-disc set in the FTD Classic Album Series. Originally released in 1974, this great album featured the legendary 'Good Time Charlie's Got The Blues', 'My Boy' and 'I've Got A Thing About You Baby'. In addition to the masters, it will contain many great outtakes from the Stax Sessions of 1973.

At the 1971 Academy of Country Music awards, "For the Good Times" won in the category of "Song of the Year" (for Kristofferson as composer) and "Single of the Year" (for Price). [12] In 2014, Rolling Stone named Price's recording #18 on its "40 Saddest Country Songs of All Time". [13] Kacey Musgraves has said it "might be the saddest song of all time. It really breaks my heart." [1] Elvis peformed "My Boy" many times (71 times) during the summer of 1973 and after (1974/75/77, it was a favourite of him! .All songs were recorded in December 1973, save for two songs that were recorded in July 1973, at Stax Studio, Memphis!. This lp reached Nº 90 position on the USA Billboard 200 Chart. Elvis flubs the lyrics on the otherwise promising 6 and 8, then calls for a 'big, huge idiot board' to show the words. He flubs Take 10 as well'. I'm too crazy to be serious', Elvis notes and then pulls off a longer Take 11, flubbing some of the lines near the close and finally ending the song slightly early.
