The first part of Gurdip & Justin's lengthy, two-part overview of Elvis' 1973 recording sessions, as voted upon by the TCBCast Patreon community, primarily focusing on Elvis' time at the legendary Stax Studios in Memphis. This first part features a deep dive into the July 1973 session and the subsequent follow-up session at Elvis' home in California. The resulting recordings led to the Raised on Rock album, which we've looked at before separately, but looking at the session as a whole and the state of Elvis' career at this point, can some sense be made of why things turned out the way they did?
Next week, TCBCast will return with a look at the December 1973 Stax sessions, as well as Songs of the Week voted upon by TCBCast patrons as well.
