{"product_id":"elvis-presley-elvis-now-cd","title":"Elvis Presley - Elvis Now [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003eElvis Now gathers the King in a reflective, country-soul frame of mind, and this manufactured-on-demand CD edition brings back the 1972 album that often gets lost between his bigger releases.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAssembled from sessions spread across 1969 to 1971, the record caught Elvis at a fascinating point. Fresh from his Memphis comeback and well into his Las Vegas reign, he was drawn to contemporary songwriters and to material that let him slow down and sing with real feeling, rather than chase the charts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHelp Me Make It Through the Night opens things with a tender reading of the Kris Kristofferson favourite, his baritone close and unhurried. Hey Jude, cut during the celebrated American Sound sessions in Memphis, finds him wrapping that famous refrain in rich gospel warmth. Until It's Time for You to Go, the Buffy Sainte-Marie song, is one of his most graceful ballad performances, and Early Mornin' Rain gives Gordon Lightfoot's travelling song a gentle Nashville glow.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is variety too, from the hymn-like Miracle of the Rosary to the rollicking I Was Born About Ten Thousand Years Ago, which shows he could still raise the roof when he wanted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor fans who love the mature, emotionally open Elvis of the early seventies, this is a quietly rewarding listen and a worthy shelf companion to the better-known albums.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57499445133617,"sku":"190759409824","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Elvis_Presley-Elvis_Now_CD.jpg?v=1794507935","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/elvis-presley-elvis-now-cd","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
