Watercamp Notes:
Previously the compilations have been collections of recordings grouped chronologically around the main album of the period.
The 1990-2000's saw EC working on some projects as in the past, while returning to others over a period of years.
Moving forward the compilations will reflect this change by combining chronology and theme.
The Delivery Man compilation is a one off project with many bonus tracks.
I have include a few side projects from the North Compilation period because they suite The Delivery Man theme better.

MISSING

THE MONKEY
[The Delivery Man Japanese bonus track; also on The Delivery Man vinyl edition, "Monkey To Man" CD single and The Clarksdale Sessions]
Co-producer Dennis Herring plays guitar on this cover of Dave Bartolomew's song, to which "Monkey To Man" is the unauthorized sequel. Although they are all the same basic performance, the version on The Clarksdale Sessions and The Delivery Man: Deluxe Edition ends with a crossfade into the next track, while the Japanese CD, vinyl edition, and "Monkey To Man" CD single have a "clean" fadeout.

UNRELEASED & UNRECORDED

LOVE THAT BURNS (STUDIO VERSION)
An account of the Clarksdale session on studio owner Jimbo Mathus' former website (and preserved on the Internet Archive) mentions the recording of "an old Peter Green song" with Mathus joining in on guitar. This song is almost certainly "Love That Burns."

BUTTON MY LIP (UNEDITED)
Elvis told Entertainment Weekly's Chris Willman that the released take of "Button My Lip" originally ran a little over nine minutes, but it was edited down to a little under five for the album.

SUSPECT MY TEARS
BURNT SUGAR IS SO BITTER
Several unrecorded tunes were performed during Costello & Nieve's 1999 Lonely World Tour. Many of them — "45," "Alibi," "When I Was Cruel," "Oh Well," "Soul For Hire," "Heart Shaped Bruise," and "I Dreamed Of My Old Lover" — have since been recorded and officially released, but the rest have either been abandoned or continue to wait for a future project. In fact, "Suspect My Tears" and "Burnt Sugar Is So Bitter" were revived at the concerts which immediately preceded the recording sessions for The Delivery Man, but it is unclear whether they were actually attempted in the studio. "Burnt Sugar Is So Bitter" was co-written with Carole King.

I'LL WATCH OUT FOR YOU
Elvis premiered this ballad at one of the Memphis concerts (the April 17, 2004 early show) coinciding with the recording of The Delivery Man. Not only did it not appear on the album, it has never been heard from again!

COMIN' HOME BABY with Nancy Sinatra
A duet with Nancy Sinatra on this Bob Dorough/Ben Tucker song (recorded by Mel Tormé, among others) was planned for her 2004 self-titled album, but it failed to make the final cut because, according to Sinatra, "there wasn't enough time to wait for Elvis Costello to do his vocal." Although she speculated that it could appear on iTunes or a followup album, it has yet to materialize and may still be awaiting Elvis' vocal.

ADDITIONAL NOTES

Elvis first mentioned The Delivery Man in his 1999 concerts as the title of a song cycle he was writing. He played two of its songs ("I Dreamed Of My Old Lover" and "Heart Shaped Bruise") and at one point (October 27 in Nashville) even recited part of the unfinished story, including some lyrics which later turned up in "The Delivery Man" and "Episode Of Blonde." Elvis was always unclear about whether he planned to turn this story into a concept album or a stage production or something else entirely. The eventual album The Delivery Man downplayed the original concept by alternating between the story's songs ("Button My Lip," "Country Darkness," "There's A Story In Your Voice," "The Delivery Man," ""Nothing Clings Like Ivy," "The Name Of This Thing Is Not Love," "Heart Shaped Bruise") and unrelated material. Additionally, the story's songs were presented out of sequence, and at least one key song ("I Dreamed Of My Old Lover") was left unreleased for the time being. (There is no evidence that it was even attempted during this period. It was finally released on Secret, Profane & Sugarcane in 2009.) The original story actually developed from a character in "Hidden Shame" (released in demo form on Rhino's All This Useless Beauty and re-recorded for Secret, Profane & Sugarcane), but it is unclear whether the song was ever intended as part of the song cycle. It is possible that additional songs remain unreleased. As a full production of The Delivery Man seems unlikely at this distance, perhaps the most likely vehicle to present the full story would be a collection of Elvis' demos for the project.

A Pretenders website reported in September 2004 that Elvis and Chrissie Hynde had recorded a version of Bread's "Everything I Own" for the film Happy Feet. The eventual film (released in 2006) did include a Chrissie Hynde cover of "Everything I Own" on its soundtrack, but it had no apparent Elvis involvement.
