{"product_id":"elvis-presley-promised-land-cd","title":"Elvis Presley - Promised Land [CD]","description":"\u003cp\u003ePromised Land catches Elvis Presley back in Memphis and in fine voice, presented here on a remastered CD with bonus tracks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReleased in 1975, the album was drawn from sessions held in December 1973 at the Stax studios, the home of so much Southern soul. Away from Hollywood and the Las Vegas spotlight, Presley worked through a mix of country, rock and roll and heartfelt ballads, and the results show a singer still able to bend a song entirely to his will.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe title track is a romp through Chuck Berry's \"Promised Land,\" taken at a gallop with a band clearly enjoying itself. \"Help Me\" slows everything down for a gospel-tinged plea, \"If You Talk in Your Sleep\" brings a slinky, funky swagger, and \"It's Midnight\" is a lonely late-hour ballad sung with real weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis remastered edition expands the original ten songs with bonus tracks from the same Stax sessions, rounding out the picture of a productive week in the studio, and they sit comfortably alongside the original running order.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's a rewarding stop for anyone who thinks Presley's 1970s output was all jumpsuits and showmanship. Here is a mature artist, rich-voiced and sometimes weary, still finding new corners of American music to call his own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57518464368945,"sku":"078636793023","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Elvis_Presley-Promised_Land_CD.jpg?v=1794678874","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/elvis-presley-promised-land-cd","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
