The album 'Moody Blue' was the last released during Elvis Presley's lifetime, published on July 19, 1977, just one month before his death. The record includes recordings from studio sessions at Graceland and Hollywood, produced by Felton Jarvis.
The lead single, 'Moody Blue', reached number 31 on the Billboard Hot 100, while 'Way Down' peaked at number 18. The album was a commercial success, reaching number 1 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart and number 3 on the Billboard 200.
The album cover shows Elvis in a blue suit, and the title refers to the title track. Although well-received, some critics noted that the production and mixes were not up to par with his earlier work, due to the singer's declining health.
