| Studio Sessions for RCA June 8-10, 1971: RCA's Studio B, Nashville |
| This third set of spring 1971 sessions was born out of the necessity to complete the planned religious album. Continuing to add material of a more contemporary flavor than his past two gospel albums. Elvis was still saddled with an inadequate selection of good material. They started out copying a recent hit by the group Ocean, "Put Your Hand In The Hand," and in two takes had a perfunctory version in hand. The evening concluded with a new song called "Reach Out To Jesus," proving that the right circumstances could still evoke from him a commanding gospel performance.
