"I Love You Because"was written by Leon Payne. Elvis recorded it during his first commercial recording session at Sun Records on July 5, 1954, along with Scotty Moore and Bill Black, and his own guitar.
Apparently five takes were taped by Sam Phillips, but none were released commercially. RCA released a single of the song in September 1956 using a splice of takes #3 and #5; that master was released on the Elvis Presley LP.
It is available on The King of Rock n Roll: The Complete 50s Masters, FTD Elvis Presley, and The Sun Sessions.
