Recording

Elvis Presley recorded the song on February 1, 1958, at Radio Recorders in Hollywood. He was in the midst of filming King Creole, and that hovered over the recording process. The atmosphere in the studio was strained. "Doncha' Think It's Time", in particular, took forty-eight takes to record.[5]

The recording released as a single features Elvis' regular sidemen Scotty Moore on guitar, Bill Black on bass, and D. J. Fontana on drums. Elvis Presley plays guitar as well as sings. Tiny Timbrell is also on guitar. Dudley Brooks is on piano. Additional vocals are provided by The Jordanaires.[5]

According to Elvis Presley's official website, the singer had "a very public spat" with Scotty Moore and Bill Black in the last year's September, and "the difficulties of the session bore witness to [his] frayed musical partnership" with the two musicians "who had been with him from the start. Whether Elvis had outgrown their contributions or it was simply a matter of business friction, this was the last session in which Bill Black would participate, and Scotty would be relegated to a subsidiary musical role in future."[5]

Release

The single was released on April 1, 1958.[5]
