Wayne Carson, who was born Wayne Carson Head in Denver, Colorado, United States (1943-2015), was a notable American singer, songwriter, and record producer. He is especially remembered for his contribution to the hit remake of the classic song "Always on My Mind" in the 1980s. He was involved in recording at 3 Alarm Studios, run by Chips Moman, alongside his assistant Mark James. Despite Carson urging the co-writers to revise the song to meet Moman's preferences for the final recording, they resisted making changes. Ultimately, after repeated requests, the song was edited to Moman's satisfaction but was never officially released from the studio after being presented to Elvis Presley.
