A long-lost Elvis Presley outtake of “Living to Love You” has been discovered. Jimmie Crane’s children are trying to claim the copyright to the song that Elvis recorded in 1965, but did not release. The Crane children are trying to claim that Crane “produced and co-authored” the song without help from the now deceased music executive, Albert Leigh. The lawyer for Leigh’s sons claims that she has a letter in which Crane granted him the rights to “the songs you like” from Crane’s catalog.
