January 10th in Elvis History

It's January tenth, and on this day in 1956... Elvis Presley walked into RCA’s McGavock Street studio in Nashville for his very first recording session with his new label. Backed by legends like Chet Atkins on guitar, Floyd Cramer on piano, and D.J. Fontana on drums, Elvis laid down “Heartbreak Hotel,” “I Got a Woman,” and “Money Honey.” But despite the all-star crew, the recordings fell flat for Elvis. The excessive echo effects used by RCA didn’t match the raw energy Sam Phillips had captured at Sun Records, and Elvis left the session disappointed with the results. Still, the moment marked the official beginning of his groundbreaking career with RCA.
