Well, Alan, that does a complete end run around my whole premise. I mean, if Elvis went into a studio just to practice (and of course it would be recorded)and it turned out so good they decided to use it, well that's just a whole 'nother deal. In fact, "That's Alright Mama" WAS born similarly to that. They were messing around during their "break" and Sam Phillips ran out and told 'em to keep going while he set up the recording device.
I'm speaking STRICTLY about a demo, done by a bunch of behind the scenes guys, AS a paid demo, that was turned into a hit. That's why I kept referring to Vanilli. Once it was out they weren't the singers, the whole thing went up in smoke. BUT, at least in that case, they had front men PRETENDING to sing.
How on earth is Joe Blow gonna take a studio recording, with NO ONE to stand up as the artist, and turn it into a hit...USING THE ORIGINAL STUDIO RECORDING?!
Man, if I ain't clear this time, I'm done. I say I'd love to talk about it, and that's true. But this is TYPING, and that's a whole 'nother deal, too!!!
