Description

Téměř 26 let po smrti Elvise Presleyho začaly rozhlasové stanice a další média informovat, že BMG/RCA objevili dosud neslyšenou skladbu „I'm a Roustabout“. Píseň byla původně objednána, napsána Winfieldem Scottem a Otisem Blackwellem pro film „Roustabout“ z roku 1964, ale nebyla použita. Winfield Scott našel původní acetátovou nahrávku ve sklepě svého domu v New Jersey a BMG/RCA ji následně přidali na album „Elvis, 2nd to None“.
