It's April 1st, and on this day in 1960, Elvis Presley boarded a chartered bus from Memphis to Nashville for a second recording session following his return from the army. In a marathon session lasting from 7:30 P.M. to 7:00 A.M., Elvis recorded twelve tracks instead of the planned ten, marking a milestone in his post-army career. Among the songs he recorded were "It’s Now or Never," a rendition of the Tony Martin standard "There’s No Tomorrow" based on "O Sole Mio," a sultry version of Little Willie John’s "Fever," and "Are You Lonesome Tonight?"—a track recorded at the specific request of his manager, Colonel Tom Parker, because it was his wife Marie’s favorite song. This session stands out as one of the rare instances where Elvis recorded a song at the explicit request of Colonel Parker.
