In response to the query about Millie Kirkham, it is indeed the same lady who did some backing for Elvis. Members of Elvis original backing group The Jordanaires also appear on "Summerside of Life". Quite a few of the musicians also performed with Elvis too, Charlie McCoy, Kenney Buttrey etc. Joveski will know that these musicians also played with Bob Dylan on "Nashville Skyline" among others. I assume they were the cream of the Nashville session musicians at the time.
