'From Elvis in Memphis'

I always wonder if Elvis Presley was doing what he wanted, music-wise.

Personally, to go from gospel, to rock, to soul, to blues and back again between albums sounds fantastic and if I had to place money on the question, I would assume that the King had a blast making albums like this.

Basically rolling into one of the greatest music cities in the world, taking your pick from the best players in the world and making whatever album you wanted to make. Want to do gospel? OK, you're the King. Do gospel. Soul? Sure, let's the Memphis Horns in here to lay down some tracks.

I'm sure Elvis had problems, but I hope that he realized that he was doing something really cool and unique.
