Annotation

The Young'un Masters from 1980.

Tracks 3 - 12 were previously released on the Guitar Man. Tracks 1, 2 and 13 - 20 are previously unreleased mixes.

20 Tracks from the sessions that Felton Jarvis and Chip Young recorded in 1980, lifting Elvis Presley's vocals off the original tapes and recording brand new backing tracks.
Ten of these recordings originally found their way to the commercially successful "Guitar Man" album, and FTD has added another ten previously unreleased songs.
