Elvis Presley - Elvis is Back! Legacy Edition
Presley worried that his stint in the army had ruined his career. But this crucial album, recorded just two weeks after his discharge in March, 1960, put an end to those fears. A mix of doo-wop, gospel, blues and pop, it rebranded the former rocker as a mature singer with mass-market appeal. This two-CD set features hit singles recorded at the same session, including the ballad “Are You Lonesome Tonight?” and the quasi operatic “It’s Now or Never,” as well as his followup album Something for Everybody. Essential Elvis.
