From Elvis in Memphis is the tenth studio album by Elvis Presley, recorded January–February 1969 at American Sound Studio in Memphis and released June 2, 1969. The sessions were produced by Chips Moman (with Felton Jarvis credited) and backed by the studio house band often called the Memphis Boys; the record blends rock, soul, country and blues and marked a major artistic comeback.

This RCA compact-disc edition carries the EAN 0078636793221 and corresponds to the remastered CD reissue issued by RCA in 2000, which adds six bonus tracks drawn from the Memphis sessions and associated A-/B-sides. Several later reissues and legacy editions have expanded the package with additional outtakes and alternate takes.

Pros:

  • Widely praised comeback album showcasing a mature, soulful Elvis and a mix of rock, country and soul arrangements.
  • Contains the hit single "In the Ghetto" (recorded during the Memphis sessions) and material produced by Chips Moman with the Memphis Boys.
  • RCA remastered CD edition (EAN 0078636793221) includes six bonus tracks from the same sessions, increasing value for collectors and listeners.

Cons:

  • The original 1969 album is brief (about 36:42), which some listeners view as a short running time for a full LP.
  • Key session singles such as "Suspicious Minds" were issued separately and were not on the original album; their inclusion depends on the specific reissue.
  • Track listing and bonus content vary between reissues and legacy editions, so different pressings carry different supplemental material.
