Elvis Presley – Our Memories Of Elvis

"Our Memories of Elvis" is an album released by Elvis Presley in February 1979 through RCA Records.

Key aspects of the album:

Stripped-Down Sound: The album's concept was to showcase Elvis's voice by removing overdubs such as backup singers, orchestration, and horns from recordings made in the 1970s, creating what was described as a "Pure Elvis Sound".
"Our Memories" Series: This was the first album in the "Our Memories" series, which intended to release recordings with this stripped-down sound. However, the series was ultimately discontinued after the second volume due to lower-than-expected sales.
Track Listing: The album features ten songs.
Singles: The album's only single release was "Are You Sincere," backed with "Solitaire".
Commercial Performance: "Our Memories of Elvis" reached number six on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart and number 132 on the Billboard 200 chart.
Cover Art: The original album cover featured a picture of Elvis's father, Vernon Presley, and Colonel Tom Parker, rather than Elvis himself. This marketing decision was speculated to have contributed to the album's moderate sales.
Reissues: The "Our Memories Of Elvis" albums (Volumes 1 and 2) have been reissued on CD, including a comprehensive set featuring the original albums and previously unreleased tracks intended for a scrapped Volume 3.
