In 1977 Elvis' career ignited even further thanks to a highly successful tour and his much-anticipated newly released LP Moody Blue. Already gaining popularity in advance thanks to two chart single smashes, "Moody Blue" and "Way Down," this masterwork album included a treasure trove of studio and concert performances that captured a very great time in the musical history of this iconic legend.

In addition to those two wonderful hit singles aforementioned, The King reaches back to his early Memphis days with a tribute to Johnny Ace with "Pledging My Love" and more fifties classics like The Diamonds' "Little Darlin'" and Jim Reeves' country smash "He'll Have To Go."

Even more hits abound with sensational interpretations of Al Hibbler's classic "Unchained Melody" which also hit the top ten of the country music charts, a gospel rockin' version of "Let Me Be There" and a brilliant reading of the Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice's classic "It's Easy For You."

Sadly, this was Elvis Presley's final album as he passed away suddenly on August 16, 1977. The world was never the same after the tragic news was told that day, as hoards of fans journeyed to his beloved Graceland to pay their heartfelt tribute to The King of Rock 'n' Roll.

Elvis Presley's Moody Blue album, of course already a huge seller prior to his death, would go on to become one of his biggest albums ever, as fans rushed to the stores to buy his final masterwork. This amazing album has been out of print on vinyl for several decades... that is until now!
