Elvis Presley / From Elvis in Nashville

Legendary sessions newly mixed and curated

Elvis Presley‘s 1970 sessions in Nashville are gathered for release in a new four-CD set, From Elvis in Nashville.

The King’s first recordings of the 1970s saw him cut loose live in the studio with a band in sync with his sensibility. Recorded live in RCA’s Studio B in Nashville over the course of a five day/night run in June (there was also an additional session on 22 September), Elvis’ performances from those sessions formed the core of the albums Elvis: That’s the Way It Is, Elvis Country (I’m 10,000 Years Old) and Love Letters from Elvis.

The master recordings are presented together for the first time on the first two discs of the four-CD set and are newly mixed by engineer Matt Ross-Spring without the added overdubs or orchestration appearing on previous releases. Additionally this set includes two discs of rare/unreleased outtakes, such as ‘Funny How Times Slips Away’, ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’, ‘I’ve Lost You’ and more.

This set is packaged as a special eight-panel wallet and comes with a 32-page booklet. These slot into a special double-walled slipcase. A 2LP, 150g vinyl edition will also be available.

From Elvis in Nashville will be released on 20 November 2020.
