Elvis Presley’s final studio album ‘Today’ is new again, via Sony Music to mark the 40th anniversary of the release.
Elvis recorded ‘Today’ in RCA’s Studio C in Hollywood in March 10–12, 1975. It was the same studio Presley recorded “Burning Love” and “Separate Ways”.
Elvis had two more albums after ‘Today’ ‘From Elvis Presley Boulevard, Memphis, Tennessee’ was recorded at his home Graceland and the official album ‘Moody Blue’ featured left-overs from the previous album sessions plus his four final songs.
‘Today’ features covers of Don McLean’s “And I Love You So” and the Pointer Sisters’ “Fairytale”. Elvis performed both songs live in his final concerts.
