About His Hand in Mine
His Hand in Mine is the fifth studio album by Elvis Presley, released on RCA Victor Records on November 23, 1960. It was Elvis's first dedicated gospel album and the first of three he would release during his lifetime, followed by How Great Thou Art (1967) and He Touched Me (1972). Gospel music was a lifelong passion for Elvis — he grew up singing in the Assembly of God church in Tupelo, Mississippi, and gospel remained the music closest to his heart throughout his career.
The album was recorded in just two sessions on October 30 and 31, 1960, at RCA Studio B in Nashville, with arrangements by Elvis and production support from his longtime collaborators. The track listing featured beloved hymns and spirituals performed with the sincerity and vocal power that only Elvis could bring. The album reached No. 13 on the Billboard Top Pop Albums chart — a remarkable achievement for a gospel record in the pop marketplace — and was certified Gold by the RIAA in 1969 and Platinum in 1992.
Gospel was arguably where Elvis performed with the deepest emotion and conviction. He won three Grammy Awards during his career — all three for gospel recordings, including Best Sacred Performance for How Great Thou Art in 1967 and He Touched Me in 1972. His Hand in Mine launched this spiritual dimension of his recording career and remains a cornerstone of his discography.
About Elvis Presley
Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) is universally recognized as the “King of Rock and Roll” and one of the most significant cultural icons of the 20th century. Born in Tupelo, Mississippi, and raised in Memphis, Tennessee, Elvis fused country, blues, and gospel into a revolutionary sound that helped launch the rock and roll era. His 1954 recordings at Sun Studios — beginning with “That's All Right” — changed popular music forever.
Elvis's career encompassed an extraordinary body of work: over 600 recordings, 33 feature films, and multiple landmark television specials, including the legendary 1968 Comeback Special and the groundbreaking Aloha from Hawaii satellite broadcast in 1973, which was watched by an estimated 1 to 1.5 billion viewers worldwide. He had 18 No. 1 singles on the Billboard Hot 100, more than any solo artist in the chart's first four decades, and his album sales are estimated at over 500 million copies worldwide.
Elvis died at Graceland on August 16, 1977, at the age of 42. He was inducted into multiple Halls of Fame, including the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (1986), the Country Music Hall of Fame (1998), and the Gospel Music Hall of Fame (2001). His home, Graceland, is the second-most visited private residence in the United States after the White House. Elvis's autograph is consistently among the most valuable in all of entertainment memorabilia, with authenticated signed items commanding premium prices at every major auction house.
