}} ''Elvis: That's the Way It Is'' is the 40th album by Elvis Presley, released on RCA Records, LSP 4445, in November 1970. It consists of eight studio tracks recorded at RCA Studio B in Nashville, and four live in-concert tracks recorded at The International Hotel in Las Vegas. It accompanied the theatrical release of the documentary film of the same name (although it is not generally considered a soundtrack album), and peaked at number 21 on the ''Billboard'' 200 and at number eight on the country chart. It was certified Gold on June 28, 1973 by the Recording Industry Association of America.〔 Note: Enter search for "That's the Way It Is"〕 ==Releases== The original vinyl LP consisted of eight tracks recorded in the studio in Nashville at the marathon sessions in June 1970 that would also yield several singles and the ''Elvis Country'' album, and four tracks from his August 1970 engagement at The International Hotel in Las Vegas. The track "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me" had been released as the advance single on October 6; its b-side, "Patch It Up", appears in a live version here. "The Next Step Is Love" had previously been released as a b-side in July 1970, and its A-side "I've Lost You" appears in a live version here as well. The concert version of "I Just Can't Help Believin" from this album would be released as a single in the United Kingdom in November 1971 and go to number six on their charts. Its b-side "How the Web Was Woven" was also taken from this album. A rehearsal version of the latter song was featured in the 1970 documentary ''Elvis: That's the Way It Is''. On June 11, 2000, a three-disc Special Edition was released. It contained the full album remastered, along with added bonus studio tracks recorded around the same time. The set also includes the full August 12, 1970 midnight show from The International Hotel and rehearsals from late July and early August prior to the engagement. The bonus tracks included an additional concert track previously released on ''Walk A Mile In My Shoes: The Essential 70s Masters'', five tracks that appeared on Presley studio LPs from the 1970s, and the single "Rags to Riches" from February 1971. In 2008, the collectors' label Follow That Dream released a two-disc special edition of the album, with a 20 page booklet. This edition contains the full original album plus bonus tracks and outtakes. In 2009, the Follow That Dream label released ''The Wonder of You'' which contains the full concert from August 13, 1970. Some concert footage from that date was used in the documentary. On July 6, 2012, Follow That Dream released a two-disc LP special edition of the album. This edition offers highlights from the 2-CD Follow That Dream release. It contains 21 tracks and features different takes of the songs.〔(【引用サイトリンク】website=FTD 2009 - 2013 - Elvis Presley Fan Seite )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「That's the Way It Is (Elvis Presley album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
