Elvis Presley "From Elvis in Memphis" (1969)
Elvis had been sinking a bit of time into making his movies. He got back
into the music thing with a TV special that was hugely popular and revitalised
him and inspired him to get back into the studio. He went down to
Memphis and unlike Dusty (in yesterday's post) he apparently had a laid back and
enjoyable recording experience, dipping back into the RnB sound that
worked so well for him in the past.
Another success, and some great
tracks. You can kind of hear the start of the added cheese that would
segue the King into his sequinned disco suits and Vegas residencies.
