Steht ja auch ganz unverblümt in Ernst Jorgensens "The Complete Recording Sessions" (Seite 317/318):
Elvis was due back to RCA's Nashville studios on September 21 to deliver two last cuts for the country album. But the day came and went, and when he finally did arrive, twenty-four hours later, he seemed so irritated adn out-of-sorts that several of those present began to wonder what was wrong. Priscilla was with him that day and to one of the musicians she intimtated, without being too specific, that there were reasons... a comment he took to have something to do with drugs.
Zu "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On": Now Elvis put it through a wild rehearsal, but he was still anxious to wind it up; he even started compalining that his guys weren't getting him enough water, and the group's forced laughter on the session tapes makes Elvis's irritation evident. He couldn't wait to get this over with, and he barreled through "Shakin'", in one take... it was almost manic, but still a fascinating performance...
Priscilla's comment confirmed...: His regiment of medications had begun coloring every aspect of their lives.
