Astonishingly, given
Elvis Presley
's physical condition, he (or his management) agreed to film a TV special in June 1977 at two concerts held in Omaha and Rapid City, SD. There was no soundtrack album scheduled, and it's hard to believe that
CBS-TV
actually would have aired the show if
Presley
hadn't died two months later, making it his final recorded performance (and making his records big sellers again).
CBS
showed the one-hour special on October 3, 1977, and
RCA
released this double-LP set,
Elvis in Concert
, in which
walks through some of his best-known numbers. His fans can be heard praising him, and his father signs off mournfully (in the middle of the album).
"My Way,"
released as a single, made the Top 40 and went gold; it and
"Unchained Melody"
made the Country Top Ten, while the album went platinum within two weeks. But it is
's least effort, as well as his last. ~ William Ruhlmann
