Just had to comment on this album. Most of it's cover versions granted, but what a fantastic job Chris does to them!!!. He has a great voice.!!! And to all the critics, (including the BBC ones) remember that PRESLEY, ORBISON etc did "covers" and they too did great versions. I rest my case!!!

Some albums are so obvious it's a wonder they didn't exist before, and so it is with Chris Isaak's Beyond the Sun, a double-disc salute to the classic rock & roll label Sun Records.
Ever since his first album, Isaak has exhibited an enormous debt to the titans who recorded at Sun, particularly Roy Orbison and Elvis Presley, whose work is showcased heavily here.
Isaak doesn't stick strictly to songs released on Sun -- he covers "Can't Help Falling in Love", which Presley did not release during his time on Sun -- but he doesn't stick to the obvious, either, finding excellent songs from the likes of Warren Smith.
Still, Elvis rules the roost, not only in terms of songs covered, but in approach. Isaak croons like the King, smoothing out the rough edges of Carl Perkins' "Dixie Fried" and Jerry Lee's "Great Balls of Fire", smoothing them out enough to push them to a smoky, late-night torch song.
"Beyond the Sun" plays it cool and plays it authentic -- these aren't reinterpretations, but sincere homages -- and if this doesn't have much grit, it has plenty of style and heart. S. T. Erlewine

I am a little disappointed regarding the sound quality, or is it just my copy of this recording. This I don't know, but my record player stops playing this record at certain sequences and if I play it in my car, I can clearly hear some sequences where the sound quality is bad. Other than this...the record is superb and I'm most delighted regarding the selection of melodies, musicians and layout of the record cover.

Chris Isaak
At my age I can remember most of these songs anyway. But Chris gives them a more upbeat sound, Rockabilly at it's very best. Read more

Best covers of the greats ever!!!
I bought this CD with a little trepidation, as I tended to agree with the BBC review - why buy this when you could listen to the originals. I am so glad I decided to have it. Read more

I had never heard of this artist until I saw him on a television programme. Love all the songs they certainly bring back some memories.

Elvis tribute
What an excellent album - apart from Elvis tribute Johnny Cash came a close second. Well done Chris I had never heard of you until I saw you on Saturday Kitchen

WOW
Only listened to the first 10 songs but initial thoughts WOW! Vibrant versions of some much loved classic songs. Sounds like a young Elvis to me!

CHRIS ISAAK -- BEYOND THE SUN
A BRILLIANT ALBUM OF COVERS TAKEN FROM THE SUN RECORDS ERA IN MEMPHIS -- GOING TO SEE HIM LIVE IN BRISTOL IN OCTOBER. A 'MUST'.

Great .... (from time to time)
Just exactly what you'd be expecting, and really good too, but a whole album of it gets to be just a wee bit much, if you're not exactly addicted to this kind of music. Read more
