Way Down in the Jungle Room is a compilation album by Elvis Presley. It was released on August 5, 2016 by RCA Records and Legacy Recordings. The album features master recordings and outtakes from two recording sessions on February 2–8, 1976 and October 28–30, 1976 in the Jungle Room, a recording studio set up by Elvis in the den of Graceland in Memphis, Tennessee. The first disc subtitled The Masters features material from these sessions that were later released on From Elvis Presley Boulevard, Memphis, Tennessee (1976), and the subsequent final studio album, Moody Blue (1977). The second disc, The Outtakes, features outtakes and "in-the-studio dialog" newly mixed by Matt Ross-Spang at the Sam Phillips Recording Studio. (wikipedia )

Announcement:
Elvis Presley's "Way Down In The Jungle Room'" is the most complete and comprehensive collection of Presley's final studio recordings ever assembled in one anthology.

This 2CD collection brings together, for the first time, master recordings and rare outtakes from two mythic 1976 sessions in Graceland's famed "Jungle Room" which was converted into a professional caliber recording studio for the purpose of capturing these indelible performances.

Elvis, the King of Rock 'n' Roll, became another kind of pioneer as one of the world's first major recording artists to create fully-realized professional level records in the intimacy of his own home.
The change of setting did nothing to inhibit the power of these magnificent recordings, and Way Down In The Jungle Room showcases Presley's brilliant final act, while shining a proper light on The King of Rock and Roll achievements.
