Elvis Presley performing at the Greensboro Coliseum on April 14, 1972 (MGM)

For those who walked out of Baz Luhrmann’s EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert wanting to hear more Elvis, this post continues The Mystery Train’s series of next steps.

1972 was another key year featured in EPiC. As Elvis attempted to manage personal challenges, including the breakup of his marriage, he found success in the studio and on the road. This 1972 playlist is designed as one album’s worth of listening. In the coming weeks, I’ll continue sharing album-length playlists exploring other eras of Elvis’s career.
