NBC-TV Special, which carried only the name Elvis on the front sleeve, was a soundtrack album by Elvis Presley, released on RCA Records in November 1968. The album was the soundtrack to Elvis Presley's '68 Comeback Special, and contained most of the material that was broadcast. Several hours of additional music was recorded for the special, and this material has been reissued in many different formats over the years. Two tracks from this album were issued as singles: "If I Can Dream" predated the album's release by a month while "Memories" came out in early 1969.
