Elvis recorded the studio master of 'Reconsider Baby' in RCA's Studio B in Nashville, Tennessee on 5 April 1960 and it was released on the album 'Elvis is Back' the same year,
On return to live perfromances it was included in the setlist for his first Las Vegas engagement but only used sparingly with the only known recording on 23 August 1969 and this was issued along with the complete concert on the FTD album 'Elvis at the International'.
This was not the first time that Elvis had sang 'Reconsider Baby' live as he had included it in his setlist for his Pearl Harbour benefit show in the Bloch Arena on 25 March 1961, another show which has recently had an official release through FTD on the CD/Book release 'Rock around the Bloch'.
The song would make a few appearances in 1972 including the afternoon show Inn Madison Square Garden on 10 June 1972 but would then be pretty much discarded until late 1976 where it would be sung a few times by Elvis including at the famous Pittsburgh New Years Eve show.
It's only appearance in 1977 and also it's final live rendition was in the Coliseum, Charlotte, North Carolina on 21 February. Elvis would sing an excerpt of the song in Amarillo, Texas on 24 March but this would consist of no more than Elvis introducing the song and a few guitar licks!
