Elvis Presley – The King In The Ring (2-LP Vinyl)
Product Details
The 1968 NBC special didn't just revive a career, it reminded a generation raised on the British Invasion exactly where rock and roll came from. Reuniting with Scotty Moore and D.J. Fontana for those small-room sit-down segments brought Elvis back to something raw and unscripted, closer in spirit to Sun Studio than to Hollywood, and the electricity between those musicians was unmistakable to anyone who understood the original chemistry.
Elvis Presley re-established himself as The King of Rock and Roll with Elvis, the widely-seen "comeback special" broadcast on NBC at the end of 1968. The show's many highlights included laid-back live performances recorded in the round before a small audience and featuring a powerful ensemble - including guitarist Scotty Moore and drummer D.J. Fontana, both part of Elvis' original, classic backing band. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of Elvis, both electrifying, intimate "sit-down" sets will be released widely on vinyl for the first time in a 2LP package with a newly created gatefold sleeve.
