C2 “Ain’t Nothin’ Shakin’ (Like The Leaves On A Tree)” is credited Written-By “Dallas/Frazier/A. Owen” on label but really is credited as Written-By [a916583], [a1359682], [a1359681] & [a772723]. C5 “Falling In Love Again” is credited Written-By “Hollander/Connally” on label but really Written-By [a582942] & [a570823] is a theme for the film “Der Blaue Engel (The Blue Angel)” performed by [a328731].
