In the '70s, Elvis Presley backed away from his career in Hollywood and reasserted himself as a live performer, first with his series of engagements in Las
Vegas and later through concert tours that put him back in touch with the fans who had supported him since the beginning. While Presley didn't record as
often in the latter years of his life, what he did produce was informed by a more mature and soulful approach that showed the high-spirited teenager from
Memphis was developing a sound to match his status as a grownup who still sang with passion and force.
