The sweet inspirations caught Elvis's attention, however it was the group, the blossoms, who backed Elvis on his '68 comeback special that were his first choice for his 1969 return to the stage in Las Vegas. When they were unable to come to Vegas because of prior commitments, Elvis didn't hesitate; he signed the 'sweets' with no audition required. The sweet inspirations met him when they arrived for the first rehearsals for the '69 engagement. The 'sweets' worked with Elvis in Vegas, on his national concert tours and on recordings from 1969 to 1977.
Myrna smith also backed Elvis up during his 1976 Graceland recordings, both in February of that year, and in October/November sessions, resulting in two Albums.
