Ernst Jørgensen's SUN Project Updates
On the FECC forum there was a discussion on Ernst Jørgensen's SUN project. Luckily for us Ernst Jørgensen has a little time off and posted several reply's which give some insight in what to expect. Dear All One of the best things about Christmas is the fact that the nice people at Sony/BMG leave me alone for a few week weeks, and I have time to indulge in favourite subjects like this. There has actually been several in the past few weeks that I wanted to be part of, but I ran out of time. Both The Doc and Piers have bee following the develepmont of the SUN project over the last few years and it seems that Doc has arrived at a bunch of questions, and Piers have the answers. Since neither the book nor the CD have been finalized I think it's great to have the opinions of the board on some of these issues, but certainly also to be able to explain what I think it can and should be. There is no doubt that our dreams - yours and mine - are much grander than this project can ever be, and I will appreciate being given the chance to communicate reasonable expectations instead of the inflated nonsense that acommpany several other releases in the biz. There are many reasons why the book has been delayed, but none more important than the fact that my daytime job takes almost all my time (not a complaint). Another reason has been the release of 4 related publications: Rockin' Across Texas, Joey Kent's Hayride book and the two MRS releases. A little much on this one subject for such a short period of time. The last reason for the delay was the hope that if we researched a bit more we might come up with more information and photo material. WE got lucky and there are still a few more leads to pursue. However the book is coming out at the end of 2008, and it will find it's final form over the next 3-4 months. So any and all suggestions are welcome and I will be happy to give you my comments through this board. More later tonight ... I understand the wish for surprises - and I would love to make them happen but the reality of my situation is that I know of no surprises that are available to me. 1) The SUN tapes have been researched endlessly by many people including Kevan and myself. We have had full co-operation from Shelby and John Singleton at SUN, The family of Sam Phillips, EPE and obviously Sony/BMG. You will get every little silly bit we have, but really only a few bits on HARBOR LIGHTS and WHEN IT RAINS are previously unreleased. I don't even have a rumor to pursue anymore. 2) AS for live recordings I can obviously not know whether somebody, somewhere has something we don't know about. The owners of the 6 track "LITLLE MAMA" acetate have NO plans for it's release and money is not a factor. The acetate of "Shake, Rattle and Roll" is a matter of money, but I have no way of paying the several hundred thousand dollar price for a recording that is not a lot different to other early "Shake" versions. 3) There will be 3 CD-es with the book, and they will be worth having because of Kevan's excellent work, but they are the bonus - the book is the main issue. Doc Carpenter's tracklisting could very well be extremely close to the final - with or without the 4 acetate sides. Tracklisting as posted by "Doc Carpenter": The CDs should play out in chronological fashion, with live material on CD3: CD1 / STUDIO Harbor Lights [all takes] I Love You Because [all takes] That's All Right [all takes, including DRY master] Blue Moon Of Kentucky [both takes] Blue Moon [all takes] Tomorrow Night I'll Never Let You Go (Little Darlin') [both takes] Just Because Good Rockin' Tonight [all takes] I Don't Care If The Sun Don't Shine [all takes] CD2 / STUDIO Milkcow Blues Boogie You're A Heartbreaker How Do You Think I Feel? [guitar slapback tape, Elvis off-mic] I'm Left, You're Right, She's Gone [all takes] Baby, Let's Play House I Forgot To Remember To Forget Mystery Train Trying To Get To You When It Rains It Really Pours [all takes] CD3 / LOUISIANA HAYRIDE 16 Oct'54: That's All Right Blue Moon Of Kentucky 06 Jan'55, radio appearance in Lubbock TX Fool, Fool, Fool Shake, Rattle and Roll 15 Jan'55 Hearts Of Stone That's All Right Tweedlee Dee 22 Jan'55 Money Honey Blue Moon Of Kentucky I Don’t Care If The Sun Don't Shine That's All Right [includes steel guitar] 19 Mar'55, remote from Houston TX Good Rockin' Tonight Baby, Let's Play House Blue Moon Of Kentucky I Got A Woman That's All Right 30 Apr'55, remote from Gladewater TX Tweedlee Dee 25 May'55, radio appearance in Meridian MS That's All Right 16 Jul'55 I'm Left, You're Right, She's Gone 20 Aug'55 Baby, Let's Play House Maybelline That's All Right ... and anything else Ernst can find! --- I'm trying to stay with one issue per reply, so if I stay with the audio for a little while, the additional elements the book will offer are the Steve Sholes notes on the actual boxes RCA received. These will all be included, but they are not a complete picture of Elvis' recording activities at SUN. These notes have no mention of any tapes containing MILKCOW and HEARTBREAKER. Additionally some of the notes will open up for new discussions of what it is they really represent. It's all good fun, but as most elements of the project, it's NOT complete. Sorry. As for ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK. We all know that Elvis sang it, but I have not talked to any people I trust that can tell they heard. I heard the "pile of noise" that some people claims is Elvis singing the song. I can't tell you it's not true, but since you cannot hear what it is anyway, what does it matter? Ernst You can read the complete discussion on the FECC Forum in the "For Ernst Jørgensen -> SUN Book Ideas!" tread in the All Elvis section. Source: www.elvisnews.com

Andy....das ist alles nicht so einfach, wie wir uns das machen wollen..
Da geht es um Ansehen, und auch um Geld... Der Sack, der Little Mama hat muss es nicht zwangsläufig an Ernst verkaufen. Der verfolgt eigene Projekte und Interessen....Geld..Geld..Geld.. Rock Around The Clock, das hab ich mir sagen lassen,...ist vom Klang her hundsmiserabel..man kann fast nicht ausmachen,... wer da singt.. Wer zahlt dafür Unsummen..??...Niemand..!!
