Elvis Presley’s “Nashville Marathon” – 40 years on
Written by admin on June 4, 2010 – 4:21 pm -On this day forty years ago, Elvis Presley began a five-day recording session at RCA’s Studio B in Nashville. The session has since been dubbed the “Nashville Marathon.”
This was Elvis’s first substantial studio time since the now legendary sessions of January and February 1969 at the American Studios in Memphis. Elvis had entered those Memphis sessions off the back of a successful television special and had approached the sessions like a hungry fighter aiming to reclaim his title. This focus led to some of the finest recordings of Elvis’ career, including hits such as “Suspicious Minds,” “In the Ghetto” and “Kentucky Rain,” and two impressive albums in “From Elvis in Memphis” and “Back in Memphis.” In short, the Nashville sessions had a lot to live up to.
