Released in July 1973, the “Elvis” album, better known as The Fool Album, was a new release with tracks from different recording sessions. In this case it focuses mainly on the sessions carried out between March 1971 and March 1972.
It also includes the live track “It’s Impossible” recorded in February 1972 at the Hilton Hotel in Las Vegas. We can find good songs like “Fool” “Where Do I Go From here” or the intimate “It’s Still Here” or “I Will Be True“.
By May 1973 RCA had acquired all of Elvis’ musical catalog so it could do with all of Elvis’ recordings whatever it considered appropriate, both with those that were already published and with songs that had not yet seen the light. RCA’s plans were to revitalize that catalog with quality publications, and focusing on those recordings in a different way, but with this release (RCA’s first as owner of this material) they made an exception, motivated mainly by the recent commercial success of the LP “Aloha From Hawaii“.
So it was decided to search the archives and that’s how this LP was released. In fact, the cover itself already makes reference to this event (better cover if possible than that of the Aloha LP itself).
It reached number 52 on the Billboard charts and initial sales were approximately 200,000 copies. Currently the LP “Elvis” is listed by the RIAA as five times platinum.
