About this album

Elvis As Recorded at Madison Square Garden is a landmark live album that confirms Presley’s enduring pull as a concert performer. Recorded during his celebrated 1972 New York run and issued later that year, it documents the Vegas-era Elvis in commanding form, backed by a tight band and a polished stage show that turned rock and roll nostalgia into a contemporary event. The set moves easily from early hits such as That’s All Right, Heartbreak Hotel and Hound Dog to then-modern favourites, showing how Presley’s catalogue had become a living canon. Its commercial success helped reinforce his status as one of popular music’s defining live acts.
