Moody Blue is the twenty fourth and final studio album by Elvis
Presley, released by RCA Records the month before his death in
August 1977. The album was a mixture of live and studio work, and
included the four tracks from Presley's final studio recording
sessions in October 1976 and two tracks left over from the previous
Graceland session in February 1976. "Moody Blue" was a previously
published hit song recorded at the earlier Graceland session and
held over for this album. Also recorded at the February session was
"She Thinks I Still Care". "Way Down" became a hit after Presley's
death less than one month after this album's publication. The album
was certified Gold and Platinum on September 12, 1977 and 2x
Platinum on March 27, 1992 by the RIAA. (wikipedia
