WHAT'S MISSING (RELEASED RECORDINGS)

LESS THAN ZERO/RADIO, RADIO (LIVE, NEW YORK, DEC. 17, 1977)
[Saturday Night Live – The Musical Performances Volume 1 album by various artists]
Elvis' legendary switcheroo performance on Saturday Night Live received an official release in 1999. Certainly a strong argument could be made for including such a famous performance on This Years Model's bonus disc, although perhaps not if it would be at the expense of the version of "Radio, Radio" which is included. It would apparently also require licensing the recording from NBC, which may have been less than eager to allow it a relatively short time after the reason of its own CD.

PUMP IT UP (BBC VERSION)
[1 And Only — 25 Years Of Radio 1 album by various artists]
This performance from March 13, 1978, was undoubtedly included on the Radio 1 collection due to the popularity of the song rather than on the merits of the particular performance, which is fairly ordinary.


WHAT'S MISSING (UNRELEASED RECORDINGS)

THE PRICE OF LOVE (LIVE, LONDON, SEP. 4, 1977)
Actually recorded at a soundcheck, this Everly Brothers cover was to have appeared on the bonus disc (after "Roadette Song") but was dropped at the last minute. Because this change came after some review copies had already been sent out, this is available in excellent quality on bootlegs. (Even the store copies include evidence of this last minute change: The sticker on the cover advertises a 13-track bonus disc, when there are only 12 tracks on the final release.)

HOOVER FACTORY (CAPITAL RADIO VERSION)
The third song from Elvis' September 27, 1977 Capital Radio session is slightly incomplete on bootlegs. If the source tape used by Rhino is also incomplete, that may explain the exclusion of this excellent performance from the bonus disc.

I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MYSELF (BBC VERSION)
REALLY MYSTIFIED (BBC VERSION)
In light of his comment in the liner notes that the bonus disc version of "Stranger In The House" "is the only decent item from several sessions recorded for BBC Radio in the first year of my professional career," it would appear that Elvis considers these interesting recordings (long available on bootleg) from the same October 23, 1978 session unworthy of release.
