ELVIS PRESLEY - COUNTRY BALLADS 1967-1977 ... AND CONTINUED CD SEALED

A beautifully curated collector's CD presenting Elvis Presley's country side in its most intimate form — undubbed masters, alternate takes, rough mixes, and rare alternate versions spanning a decade of recordings from 1967 to 1977. Still factory sealed, this is an essential release for fans who want to hear Elvis stripped back, unpolished, and at his most emotionally direct.

From the tender vulnerability of Loving Arms and Pieces Of My Life to the raw country grit of There's A Honky Tonk Angel and Kentucky Rain, this collection reveals the craft behind some of Elvis's finest ballad recordings. The 1980 alternate mixes of She Thinks I Still Care, Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain, and Funny How Time Slips Away offer a fascinating glimpse into how these tracks were reimagined after his passing. The set closes with a live recording of I Really Don't Want To Know from 19th June 1977 — one of his final performances.
