& SHEET MUSIC of the song
SHIFTING SANDS
by GIANT, BAUM & KAYE ( Bill Giant, Bernie Baum, Florence Kaye)
WHO WROTE 43 SONGS ELVIS RECORDED MOSTLY FOR HIS MOVIES
MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS THAT THIS WAS WRITTEN FOR"GIRLS, GIRLS, GIRLS" (A 1962 FILM) WHICH TOOK PLACE IN HAWAII. ELVIS SUNG ONE GIANT & BAUM SONG IN THAT FILM ."I DON'T WANT TO BE TIED". BUT WHAT IS FAR MORE
LIKELY IS THAT THIS WAS WRITTEN FOR THE 1966 ELVIS FILM "PARADISE HAWAIIAN STYLE IN WHICH G,B&K WROTE MOST OF THE SONGS.
I COULD FIND NO INFO ABOUT THIS SONG ON LINE SO OTHER THEN IT BEING WRITTEN BY ELVIS'S MAIN MOVIE SONG
WRITING TEAM. I 'M JUST GUESSING. BUT IT WAS WRITTEN FOR ELVIS PRESLEY MUSIC INC. & IT IS LOGICAL TO ASSUME IT WAS WRITTEN FOR AN ELVIS BEACH MOVIE BUT REJECTED.
condition of ACETATE: VG++ ( one sided)
I can't really say why the label has F. Kaye on it. Perhaps she was the major writer.
I'M 99% SURE THE SINGER ON THE ACETATE IS BILL GIANT HE SANG THEIR ELVIS SONGS
(SEE THE BIO BELOW)
ELVIS IS NOT THE SINGER ON THIS ACETATE!!!!
CONDITION OF THE SHEET MUSIC IS FINE . IT WAS PRINTED OR MADE ON A VERY EARLY COPYING MACHINE. .
THIS IS A VERY DECENT SOFT POP ROCK MOVIE STYLE SONG PERFORMED WITH FULL BAND.
THE HILL AND RANGE ON LABEL REFERS TO
Hill and Range Music Publishers, H & R owned the subsidiary companies Elvis Presley Music& Gladys Music
HERE IS THE ELVIS PART OF A GIANT , BAUM & KAYE BIO I FOUND AT THE RARE ROCKIN' RECORDS BLOG
1963 brought us "(You're) The Devil in Disguise" reaching number 3 on the charts and "World of Our Own" from the movie It Happened At The World's Fair. But they also wrote a Dion styled record for Curtis Lee called Lonely Weekends, the very soulful "It's No Good For Me" by Johnny Nash, the novelty "Mary Go-Round" by C.L. & The Pictures, the girl group classic "Get a Hold of Yourself" by The Persians and Byrdie Green respectively, and a song feature on the TV show Dr. Kildare "Young & In Love" recorded by Chris Crosby and reaching number 50 on the Pop charts and number 53 on the R&B Charts.
1964 brought 12 Elvis songs including the number 12 hit "Ask Me". But what's more interesting are the non-Elvis material. The very soulful "It Ain't No Use" by Lou Johnson which was also Produced, Arranged & Conducted by the legendary Burt Bacharach, the soulful/girl group "You've Pulled a Fast One", "Flashback" both by The V.I.P.'s and covered by Ginny Arnell & The Rockin Berries. The Motownish "Breakdown" by Gerri Granger, the dreamy "I Wish It Were Summer" & the Four Seasons type "Tug of War" both by The Chordials, Little Peggy March recorded "Watch What You Do With My Baby" & The Mitch Miller type "Sail to Bombay, Sail To Rio" by The Victoria Voices.
1965 placed song in the Elvis movies "Girl Happy" & the underrated soundtrack of "Harum Scarum". But this is the year that will bring us the girlish Joanne Engel "Don't Wait Up For Me Mother", the soulful and Drifters type "Park Avenue" by Lou Johnson, the original "A Time To Love, A Time To Cry" by Marilyn Maye but t more famous by Lou Johnson a year later, the rocking "Toy Boy" & " I Ain't a Bit Sorry" by The Dedications which would become the Soul Survivors and record the genius Gamble-Huff record "Expressway To Your Heart" in 1967, the song they wrote specifically at Bobby Darin's request "Walkin In The Shadows of Love".
1966, they wrote the theme for the first Anime from Japan "Kimba The White Lion", they also wrote songs for the soundtracks of the Elvis movies "Frankie & Johnny", mostly for "Paradise Hawaiian Style" & "Spinout", Lou Johnson recorded the Soulful/Pop "What Am I Crying For" & the Northern Soul Anthem "Unsatisfied", The Chantels even got a G-B-K song "The Soul of a Soldier" & Dale Adriatico recorded "Lonely Sunday" which the demo by Bill Giant is by far superior, even Eartha Kitt recorded "There Comes a Time". In the vaults is a sublime Dee Dee Warwick song called "Learn How To Hold Your Tears", a great Beat Ballad.
The next notable song is "The Sound of Your Cry" in 1971 for Elvis and in 1979 they wrote "Joy Sweet Joy" for Michael Lynch & The Ambrose Choir played during the Pope's visit to the US news broadcast.
In the vaults are songs that should have been place or at least released like the beautiful "Whistle Neath The Mistletoe" & the Lesley Gore type "That Boy There" & the gorgeous "The Mission of St. Mary" and let's be honest Bill Giant as a singer should have been bigger. If you listen to the demos you can hear that Elvis took his arrangements from the demos and usually sang them note for note. Sadly Bill Giant, Bernie Baum & Florence Kaye are no longer with us, but through their music they will always live on!

ACETATES & TRANSCRIPTION*** IN USA SHIPPING ON 2ND LP IS FREE.***
Of course I combined auctions for cheapest shipping.
NM: Near Mint. Record and cover appear virtually unmarked. Cover still in shrink.
VG++: A hair under near mint may have only a couple of very insignificant surface only lines that should not have much affect on sound.
Cover out of shrink otherwise close to perfect.
VG+: A cared for record. Some surface lines. No actual scratches. May still play perfectly or will have very slight audible
imperfections. Some normal cover wear.
VG: There will be visual imperfections and some audible ones . May be a number of surface only lines or there might be a
small scratch but not one that repeats, Cover will be worn or have some kind of defect. In this condition flaws will be pictured
or noted.
VG-: Usually the lowest rating I will list an LP at. Same as VG but defects are more pronounced. May have more than 1 scratch
but still not one that repeats. This record will still be enjoyable but there will almost definitely be background sound. I have
sold many rare 78s and older acetates at this grade and buyers have almost always been pleased. In this condition flaws will
be pictured or noted.
G+: There may be skips or some other major defect or the background sound is so loud that listening might be a chore.
Covers will have major defects that need to be stated.
G: Better to use as a frisbee<img src="http://ti2.auctiva.com/web/aswCredit.gif" border="0"><br><a href="http://www.auctiva.com/?how=scLnk2&how2=bd1K/YPiW93qYnmYHnb77peCBhF9i/AaEVv6YW1cCNfCvdAJtqChVpks3qEn74vteertHcbW+0PY3lPrd6Bc2UxBejwb+JDzz31OiXmIZc+XOxDwgxUvZt1VJDENxhNO" target="_blank"><img src="@http://ti2.auctiva.com/images/sc1line2.gif" border="0"></a> <div style="text-align:center"><a style="text-decoration:none" href="http://mostpopular.sellathon.com/?id=AC903565"><img src="http://www.sellathon.com/Resources/Images/countercredit.gif" border="0"></a></div>

HOW I PACK FOR LPs FOR INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING
To keep the price of international shipping of 1 LP at $15.00 I don’t charge for packaging costs but I need to keep the weight within 1lb. I use professional Lp mailers & in addition I usually use a light but hard foam stiffener. Sometimes I will use 1 piece of cardbord. I take the record out of the jacket if there is a possibility it might split. I don't recall ever having any problems shipping this way. If you would like me to ship differently you must contact me before you pay so I can invoice you for any extras costs.

I JUST REALIZED I SHOULD HAVE TAKEN A CLOSER PICTURE OF GIANT, BAUM & KAYES NAMES ON THE SHEET MUSIC.
UNFORTUNATELY IT'S TO LATE AND EBAY WONT ALLOW CHANGES IN THE LAST 24 HOURS BUT IF YOU USE THE MAGNIFYING OPTION YOU CAN SEE IT AT THE TOP RIGHT OF THE SHEET MUSIC IN THE GALLERY PICTURE.price rating
