''Something for Everybody'' is the thirteenth album by Elvis Presley, released on RCA Victor in mono and stereo, LPM/LSP 2370, in June 1961. Recording sessions took place on November 8, 1960, at Radio Recorders in Hollywood, and on March 12, 1961 at RCA Studio B in Nashville, Tennessee. In the United States, it peaked at number 1 on ''Billboard''s Top Pop LPs chart. It was certified Gold on July 15, 1999 by the Recording Industry Association of America.〔 Note: Enter search for "Something For Everybody"〕 ==Contents== After his military discharge from the army in March 1960, any doubts about Presley's ability to recapture the momentum of his career in the 1950s had been laid to rest. During that year his three singles had all topped the charts, and his first album, ''Elvis Is Back!'', had gone to number 2 on the albums chart. His musical film ''G.I. Blues'' had been wildly successful, its soundtrack album also going to number 1.〔Jorgensen, Ernst. ''Elvis Presley, A Life In Music''. New York: St. Martin's Press, 1998; ISBN 0-312-18572-3〕 Pressing on, he entered the familiar Studio B in Nashville and recorded eleven of the tracks for this album in one twelve-hour session, in addition to the single "I Feel So Bad".〔 The single was initially scheduled to be the twelfth track for the album, but Presley chose, after RCA executive Bill Bullock overruled the Colonel who wanted "Wild In The Country" paired with "I Slipped, I Stumbled, I Fell" as the single, it to accompany the title track to the film ''Wild in the Country'' as the promotional 45 for the film. Another track that had appeared in the film but not released commercially on records, "I Slipped, I Stumbled, I Fell", became the final track for the album.〔 The July 13, 1999, compact disc reissue included six bonus tracks, four singles and two b-sides recorded over the span of a year and issued in 1961 and 1962, and altered the album's running order. All of the sides made the Top 40 at a time when ''Billboard'' charted B-sides as well, and two of the singles, "Surrender" and "Good Luck Charm", topped the singles chart. "Surrender" had been recorded at the sessions for Presley's gospel album of 1960, ''His Hand in Mine'', and the sides for 47-7908 and 47-7992 at sessions specifically to produce singles. The entirety of the 1999 reissue appeared on the Legacy Edition reissue of ''Elvis Is Back!'' released in 2011. Bonus tracks were all recorded at Studio B in Nashville. In 2006 ''Something for Everybody'' was reissued on the Follow That Dream label as a special 2-disc CD collection containing the original tracks along with numerous alternate takes.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Follow That Dream releases )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Something for Everybody )〕 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「Something for Everybody」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
