Trude Forsher personal secretary to Elvis and his manager, in her 2006 book entitled "The Love Me Tender Years Diary"
“

On Wednesday August 22 1956, Colonel Parker called me to report to the bungalow where Elvis was rehearsing 'Love Me Tender' with Ken Darby, the film's music director. They also had to choose some hoedown numbers to be featured in the picture. As we were ready to leave, there was a change in tempo and Elvis sang, "We're gonna move" a lively spiritual. As he stood standing next to the grand piano with Mr. Darby playing – with his head back and thick dark hair tumbling over his eyes, Elvis was oblivious to those around him. When we all left the bungalow, (I noticed) he walked in front.
