1973 was a crucial year in the career of Elvis Presley. Riding high on the success of ELVIS: ALOHA FROM HAWAII VIA SATELLITE, which was seen by over 1 BILLION people, Elvis did something remarkable. He chose to take control of his own business. He sold his future royalties to RCA and he started a new publishing company. No one would tell him what to do ever again. Elvis decided that his next recording project would be on his home turf at the red-hot STAX, the launching pad of such greats as Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, Sam & Dave and Isaac Hayes. He assembled the very best musicians in town members of the MGs, the Memphis Boys and his own TCB band to create the ultimate band and he searched for fresh new material that would reflect his new path. Such songs as “I Got a Feelin in My Body” And “Loving Arms” demonstrate an artist looking to broaden his palette and his reach. The STAX material, an amazing chapter of Elvis career, has never been positioned as a whole body of work. Until now.
