ELVIS PRESLEY - ELVIS COUNTRY (LEGACY EDITION) (2CD)

ELVIS PRESLEY - ELVIS COUNTRY (LEGACY EDITION) (2CD) Release Date: 13/1/2012  

ELVIS COUNTRY (Legacy Edition) will be released on January 13, 2012, just in time for what would have been Elvis' 77th birthday!  This album was originally released in January 1971 and received press accolades with hits such as "I Really Don't Want To Know", "Whole Lot-ta Shakin' Goin' On", "There Goes My Everything", and more.
In a review for Rolling Stone, historian Peter Guralnick said;  " ... Elvis Presley has come out with a record which gives us some of the very finest and most affecting music since he first recorded for Sun almost 17 years ago." .... But it's the singing, the passion and engagement most of all which mark this album as something truly exceptional.  All the familiar virtues are there.  The intensity. That peculiar combination of hypertension and soul. In short - he has never sung better.
This Legacy Edition of Elvis Country is coupled with Elvis' follow-up studio album from June 1971, Love Letters From Elvis which contains songs recorded at the Elvis Country sessions including; "The Sound Of Your Cry" and "Life" (Billboard #53).
