He had also recorded it for RCA in Jan 1957 with the Jordanaires and I
am having trouble figuring out which RCA issue is of the lacquer. But
you can hear both of these on line.
And yes this was a publicity stunt from beginning to end. Remember, this
is the jackass with the Paramount boxes.

THIS is an interesting and important tidbit. If it has been previously
re-issued, it is not such a big deal, except for the video of it being
played.There is no evidence of the digital recording in the video that I
saw -I think it was staged for the glorification of the guy in the hat!
Basically a publicity stunt, probably re-created and not actual. Or am I
too cynical?
Any info on the RCA issues?
