Elvis cut two sides (master 0914-A and 0914-B) on Saturday, 6/5, and picked up his acetate dub on Wednesday, 6/9. This documentation is likely for a song like, perhaps, Casual Love Affair.

The receipt is very similar to the one for I’ll Never Stand in Your Way It Wouldn’t Be the Same Without You

Elvis, anxiety, and exorcism: Ex-preacher still looking for apology after being cut out of church
Despite his success singing as “The King,” Bravener said the Elvis act also helped sour his relationship with church leaders in the early 2000s. He said he was then told by the church leadership that he was suffering ‘demonic oppression’. Desperate for relief from his anxiety, Bravener said he agreed to be the subject of an exorcism. He said the attempted demonic expulsion took place at church member Joe Crummey’s home. “‘We renounce! We command you!'” Bravener said members yelled at him. “I didn’t levitate and I didn’t throw up,” he added, “but I felt like I was going to throw up and I was scared to death, I was shaking.”
CBC News requested an interview with Christ Central Church. Mark Rushworth, the current lead pastor, declined the request and said the church didn’t want to discuss the matter publicly. “It’s been addressed before,” Rushworth said over the phone, though Bravener and his son both dispute the claim.
