A Box Set of Elvis Presley’s 1970-75 Studio Sessions is Coming Titled ‘Sunset Boulevard’

Back in the early to mid-70s, Elvis Presley had a series of studio sessions and rehearsals in RCA’s Los Angeles studios, those sessions that took place between 1970 and 1975 will now be the subject of a comprehensive box set titled Sunset Boulevard. The set has a release date set for August 1, 2025, via RCA Records and Legacy Recordings, the catalog division of Sony Music Entertainment. The set is available for pre-order in the U.S. here and in the U.K. here.

It will be a 5-CD box set that will include 89 Presley rarities, over half of which have never been released in the United States. The all-studio set includes recordings of such Presley favorites as “Always On My Mind,” “Burning Love,” the 40th and final Top Ten single of his career, and such choice covers of “Green, Green Grass of Home,” “For the Good Times,” “I Got a Woman,” “The Wonder of You,” “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’,” “Something,” “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” “Johnny B. Goode,” “Proud Mary,” and more.

It also features rare alternate studio versions of late-period gems like “Separate Ways”—widely seen as the most autobiographical song Elvis ever recorded— and “T-R-O-U-B-L-E,” which channeled the groundbreaking signature vocal style from his earlier years.

Sunset Boulevard includes rare archival photographs and new liner notes from music historian Colin Escott, plus an introduction by longtime friend Jerry Schilling.

Also available on August 1 will be a 2-LP highlights edition, comprising the newly mixed studio recordings and outtakes. It’s available for pre-order in the U.S. here and in the U.K. here.
