Yesterday, on the occasion of Elvis Presley’s birthday, Legacy Recordings announced their latest release devoted to The King of Rock and Roll: a companion album to next month’s forthcoming EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert. Drawn from unseen live footage from the 1970s, this 27-track album will combine concert favorites as well as some new studio remixes and medleys of familiar material. The album will be available on CD and digitally February 20 – day and date with the film’s IMAX release – with several 2LP formats following on April 24.
A follow-up to director Baz Luhrmann’s 2022 biopic of the singer starring Austin Butler in a star-making, Golden Globe-winning turn as the late singer, EPiC is sourced from scores of long-vaulted material utilized for film research. Warner Bros. Pictures unearthed unseen footage and outtakes from Elvis’ concert documentaries That’s the Way It Is (1970) and Elvis on Tour (1972) as well as eight-millimeter footage of a 1957 concert in Hawaii (wearing his iconic, Nudie Cohn-designed gold lamé jacket) and even audio of Presley talking about his life and career. “I wouldn’t call it a documentary, or a concert film,” the Australian director explained in 2025. “Our aim here is to make something new in the Elvis canon…to bring something to the screen that befits the magnitude of Elvis as a performer but also offers deeper revelations of his humanity and inner life.”
Most of the EPiC album is seemingly drawn from performance audio that was located and synced to the soundless footage, though its exact specs are as yet unclear. That’s the Way It Is, released as a combination studio-and-live album alongside the documentary in 1970, has been reissued multiple times, most recently in an 8CD/2DVD box set in 2014 that featured six shows from Elvis’ ongoing residency at the International Hotel in Las Vegas from August 1970. Elvis on Tour never received an official soundtrack release until a 2023 box set from Legacy. In addition to the live material, EPiC includes remixes and mash-ups of less-familiar material by Jamieson Shaw (who oversaw some of the recordings for the 2022 film) and Australian duo PNAU (who scored an unlikely late-career Top 10 for Elton John and Dua Lipa remixing several of the British piano man’s songs into new composition “Cold Heart”). One of the Shaw mixes has been released: “Wearin’ That Night Life Look,” which combines studio material from ’60s and ’70s deep cuts “Wearin’ That Loved On Look,” “Night Life,” “I, John” and “Let Yourself Go.”
EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert has an IMAX-exclusive window starting on February 20 before opening wide a week later; the soundtrack CD and digital album will also arrive that date, with the vinyl following on April 24. (The 2LP set will be available in several color variants, including red marble sold at the Graceland online store and translucent orange and yellow on Amazon.)
