I couldn't get on with the original version by Johnnie Ray, but the Elvis version released ten years later is great and the Wollaton remix released 59 years later is now the crowning glory! Thank you Pat.
It was a night. Ooh, what a night it was! It really was such a night. The moon was bright. Oh, how bright it was! It really was such a night. The night was alight . . . with stars above. Ooh, when she kissed me, I had to fall in love. Oh, it was a kiss. Ooh, what a kiss it was! It really was such a kiss. Oh, how she could kiss! Oh, what a kiss it was! It really was such a kiss. Just the thought of her lips . . . sets me afire. I reminisce . . . and I'm filled with desire. But I gave my heart to her in sweet surrender. How well I remember! I'll always remember. Oh, what a night! Ooh, what a night it was! It really was such a night. Came the dawn, and my heart, and her love, And the night was gone. But I'll never forget-a the kiss-a, The kiss in the moonlight. Ooh, such a kiss! Such a night! It was a night. Ooh, what a night it was! It really was such a night. Came the dawn, and my heart, and her love, And the night was gone. But I'll never forget-a the kiss-a, The kiss in the moonlight. How well I remember! I'll always remember. That night. Ooh, what a night it was! It really was such a night. When we kissed, I had to fall in love. But I gave my heart to her in sweet surrender. How well I remember! I'll always remember. Oh, that night. Ooh, what a night it was! It really was such a night. When we kissed, I had to fall in love. Well, she's gone, gone, gone. Yes, she's gone, gone, gone. Came the dawn, dawn, dawn, And my love was gone. But before that dawn, yes, Before that dawn, and before that dawn, Ooh, ah, ooh, ah, ooh, ah, yeah, ah, Such a night. Woo!
The best version of this excellent tune of The King by our Genius Pat. The best french version by Johnny Hallyday at The Olympia in 1964, a super album live of 14 super songs. 👍👌😊
Was on the ‘Elvis is Back’ album and finding it hard to believe this single came after ‘Girl of my Best Friend’ and ‘Return to Sender’ as the musical part of the brain is telling me it belongs with his fifties recordings. This song has never won me over completely but so well produced that you have to enjoy it. Splendid sounding remix I have to say. Much appreciated Pat!
Incredible stereo Pat!! I never expected that you would make a better version than your old one, which for me was perfect. I hope one day you do the flipside of "That's All Right Mama" that I'm so anxiously waiting for.
WOW, Pat! This sounds so great and really 2020s. Dust from 60 years are gone. Thanks a lot! How about some northern soul? These are all in mono :-( Twinkle-Lonely singing doll / Ketty Lester-River of salt / Barbara Jackson-Big man ...only to name a few I would love, love, love to hear in your stereo!
Thanks for all the feedback. Looks like you've just discovered my channel. I've uploaded some of the more well known Northern Soul tracks in the past. I will see if I can do some more!
Fantastic! Have you any plans to remix some of the Elvis soundtrack tracks? Some of them are in desperate need of this treatment. I'd love to hear you do some Shangri Las tracks too, as well as more by The Searchers.
