Today, The Mystery Train offers another next step for those who walked out of Baz Luhrmann’s EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert wanting to hear more Elvis.

Elvis Presley performing in Burbank for the ELVIS television special on June 29, 1968 (NBC)
EPiC included a brief overview of Elvis’ career prior to the 1970s concerts featured in the film. Taking a similar approach, this album-length playlist covers his first record, early hits, movie years, and 1968 “comeback” television special. In the final installment of the series, I’ll share one more playlist as well as a few other suggestions.
