Elvis Presley: On Stage (1970)


I have an original Canadian pressing from 1970. From Wikipedia:

It was recorded between February 17 and 19, 1970 and August 22 and 25, 1969 at the International Hotel, Las Vegas, Nevada. The album reached number 13 on both the Billboard 200 and country music charts. It was certified Gold on February 23, 1971, and Platinum on July 15, 1999, by the Recording Industry Association of America.
Country music charts! What? And, also: "Unlike the previous release, however, this album focused on songs that were not, at the time, associated with Elvis."

I m not sure that I have ever listened to this record. I am not even sure where I got it. How is this country music?
