About this listen

It's October twenty-ninth, and on this day in 1976... Elvis Presley began a late-night recording session in the Jungle Room at Graceland, working from 9:00 p.m. until 8:00 a.m. Among the songs recorded was “Way Down,” which would become his final charting single during his lifetime. Elvis spent much of the evening in his bedroom but still invited some of the musicians and backing vocalists upstairs and gave away some of his old clothes, creating an atmosphere that was equal parts work session and personal gathering.
