Rara gravação de Elvis Presley vem à tona 40 anos após sua morte

Em 1970, Elvis Presley viajou para Nashville, onde gravou por cinco dias. O cantor juntou-se aos instrumentistas da Music City (como é apelidada), Charlie McCoy e Norbert Putnam – o lendário “Nashville Cats”.

Agora, quatro discos serão lançados mixados pelo engenheiro vencedor do Grammy, Matt Ross-Spang, retirando orquestrações e overdubs adicionais. O compilado mostrará Elvis Presley de uma forma mais crua.
