Best studio album

[jeanno]

My vote is for ELVIS COUNTRY.

What´s your opinion?

[drjohncarpenter]

Cannot vote -- four are tied at #1.

[jeanno]

Tough decision, Doc!

[Ciscoking]

Elvis Presley
Elvis Is Back
From Elvis In Memphis
Elvis Country

One of the best albums pop music has ever born..

[Guest]

I voted "Today" 10 GREAT tracks in ONE album.

[Rob]

Out of those listed, Elvis Is Back gets my vote.

[Guest]

I went for 'From Elvis In Memphis' from the list. E in 69' was fantastic!

[Matthew]

The 4 essential Elvis albums to take anywhere are:

Elvis
Elvis Is Back!
From Elvis In Memphis
Elvis Country

Maybe its because they all feature his name in the title eh!?

Really though, Elvis is a better album than Elvis Presley, its his first real album where as Elvis Presley isa compilation of old and new material.

Question: why exclude His Hand In Mine but include the other 2 gospel albums?

[GIRL HAPPY BOY]

OH BOY
it's so hard to pick just one, i just love them all , they all great albums
Can't choose just one...
SUCH A HARD QUESTION

sincerely

[elvispresleyfan1935]

Out of those listed, Elvis Is Back gets my vote.

If I had to choose from those selections, it would be 'Elvis Country', but to be fair there are more than a couple of contenders in your list, Jeanno.

How about a poll for best studio session(s)

[JerryNodak]

I voted for "Pot Luck" because I love his voice on those songs. Also, it's the only studio album he ever cut where I liked ALL the songs the first time I heard them and STILL like them 40+ years later.

[bajo]

I would have added His Hand In Mine to the list, which is another favourite of mine.
Still, I'm with Doc on this, there are more than one.
I would also like to include the "lost" albums. "For The Asking" and "Tomorrow Is A Long Time" on the list.
Still, it's a tie between the following:

Elvis Presley
Elvis
Elvis Is Back
From Elvis In Memphis
Elvis Country

Then:

His Hand In Mine
Something For Everybody
He Touched Me
How Great Thou Art
Today

They are all great!

Joe -
These are how they charted here in the U.S.:
Elvis Presley #1
Elvis #1
Elvis Is Back! #2
Something For Everybody #1
Pot Luck #4
How Great Thou Art #18
From Elvis In Memphis #13
Elvis Country #12
He Touched Me #79
Today #57
Missing from the poll but should've been included:
His Hand In Mine #13
That's The Way It Is #21

[freia]

I voted "From Elvis In Memphis". No special reason I just love those songs and that period in Elvis's carreer

Missing from the poll but should've been included:
That's The Way It Is #21

I don't think this one really counts as a proper studio album

[JEFF d]

From Elvis In Memphis

[jeanno]

Matthew
Completely forgot HIS HAND IN MINE! Shame on me!
Great TOP3 anyway :

1FROM ELVIS IN MEMPHIS
2ELVIS IS BACK
3ELVIS COUNTRY

[dougkapp]

From Elvis in Memphis

besides Elvis Presley 1st LP.... maybe one of the best... My vote is for From Elvis In Memphis...

[KiwiAlan]

To each his own - but - do 6 members really believe that TODAY was Elvis' best album

My vote went to Elvis Is Back.
