Marie's the Name
Little Sister

Bossa Nova Baby

Kentucky Rain & Suspicious Minds are also post-'68.
So it seems Elvis didn't do too bad during what people think of as a career slump for him. How many contemporary artists have produced as many memorable and beloved singles during an eight-year span? Sure, the recording business is different today, but still it makes you think.

but from this era if I could swap out for singles, I'd add his covers of "Tomorrow Is A Long Time" and "Beyond The Reef". Those are such amazingly good songs.
