I have been asked on
several occasions how many
duets did Elvis sing. Most
fan know of: THE LADY
LOVES ME with
Ann-Margret and DON'T CRY
DADDY with
Lisa
Marie. Omitting DON'T CRY DADDY which of course was a mix
performed by Lisa Marie at the 20th Anniversary Concert 2002 and never
officially released, there are many more than one would presume.
Beside the bootleg mixes of Elvis with other singers most are very poorly
spliced with the exception of LOVE ME TENDER in 1978 Elvis & Linda
Ronstadt. Elvis song duets are:
HUSKY DUSKY DAY with Hope
Lang in WILD IN THE COUNTRY
SPRING FEVER with Shelley
Fabares
SIGNS OF THE ZODIAC with
Marilyn Mason in THE TROUBLE WITH GIRLS
WHO NEEDS MONEY with
Ray Walker (mimed by Will Hutchins

several non English songs in German,
