Welcome in my room !

Tyvm reggae79 and Marco in providing the facts of this new CD /Lp thats due out soon from Sony
.................................................................
June 16, 2016- New York, NY-RCA Records and Legacy Recordings, the catalog division of Sony Music Entertainment, will release Way Down In The Jungle Room, a definitive new 2CD collection of Elvis Presley’s last studio recordings ...........................................

Yes these sessions from 76 do portray Elvis at his lowest point of his life when he recorded these songs

Each song tells a story I feel on his status and his mindset during this latter part of his career and life _His voice is so strong on some ballads and rockers during this time _ Wow _


Many Imports such as ''The Last Farewell'' and ''Rhumble In The Jungle'' ( a 5 cd set ) depict this as well as Venus Import cds that have surfaced in the past

..............................................................
Ten of the “Jungle Room” master takes first emerged on From Elvis Presley Boulevard, Memphis, Tennessee in the spring of 1976, including the Top 10 hit “Hurt.”

More tracks from these sessions were later paired with live material and released in July 1977 (a month before Elvis’ death on August 16) on the Moody Blue album. The title track would top the
country charts that month; “Way Down” would follow.
These were the last studio albums released during Elvis’ lifetime.
...................................................................For these sessions, Elvis was backed by many members of his longtime touring band including: James Burton (guitar), Ronnie Tutt (drums), David Briggs (keyboards), Glenn D.
Hardin (keyboards), Jerry Scheff (bass), Norbert Putnam (bass) and J.D. Sumner & the Stamps (vocals).
............................................................
With original recordings executive-produced by Elvis Presley with producer Felton Jarvis (who’d helmed most of Elvis’ records from 1966-1977), Way Down In The Jungle Room brings together, for the first time in one collection, master recordings and rare outtakes laid down during two mythic sessions (February 2-8, 1976 and October 28-30, 1976) in Graceland’s den–known as the “Jungle Room”–which was converted into a professional caliber recording studio for the purpose of capturing these indelible performances.

The outtakes have been newly mixed by Grammy Award-winning engineer Matt Ross-Spang at Sam Phillips Recording in Memphis, Tennessee.

Ancora 1 giorno!!! Non vedo l'ora, l'ho ordinato il 2 agosto, speriamo arrivi domani!!

Pure io.
Ho preso anche il vinile ma la sua emissione è slittata al 26, se non ricordo male.

Ci sentiamo domani, e vediamo se il tuo e' arrivato... Io incrocio le dita

nada, niente, oggi mi e' arrivata una mail, la data di arrivo del cd e' posticipata a data da destinarsi...era troppo bello per essere vero!!!ed a voi come e' andata???spero meglio che a me!!! ok l'attesa me lo fara' gustare ancora di piu', buttiamola cosi'

"Amazon" ha posticipato anche il CD...
Alcuni amici tedeschi, però, ce l'hanno già...

Comunque è solo questione di giorni.

Ricevuto oggi il cd da Amazon! A dir poco e' strepitoso !!!

Concordo, anche a me piace molto, un Elvis più maturo, una voce da brividi!!

Way down, secondo il mio parere. :)

Grazie Marco, bellissima ed approfondita recensione. Mi "immergo nella cultura" quando leggo i tuoi post!! Adesso lo ascolterò con un orecchio diverso... Grazie
