I was 21 when I wrote this piece back in 1996 for The Elvis Beat #14, my official Elvis Presley Fan Club newsletter.

“Reconsider Baby” is the only song to appear on all three of the main Elvis boxed sets. A studio jam version was released on ELVIS: The King of Rock ‘n’ Roll – The Complete 50s Masters. A formal studio recording of the song was on ELVIS: From Nashville To Memphis – The Essential 60s Masters I, and a live concert version was included on ELVIS: Walk A Mile In My Shoes – The Essential 70s Masters.
