"For the 50s Elvis fan who purse doesn't stretch to the 50s Masters box set, this single cd, coupled with one below has all the Rock n Rollers and ballads you need from this period."
"His first post army and first "real" album. Swinging pop, ballads, R&B and, in Reconsider Baby, filthy blues, this is one of a handful of albums that shows his true talent in all it's glory!"
"Compilation of early 60s hits; Masterful display of pure pop. His "crooning" career hits a peak with "Are you lonesome tonight" and "Anything that's part of you"."
"His most deeply felt gospel. At times almost Phil Spectorish in production, the uptempo songs swing with a religious fervour, "Where no one stands alone" is a dark-night-of-the-soul moment."
"His greatest studio LP. Recorded at American Studios (creators of Dusty in Memphis, among other soulful gems), Elvis really lets loose, covering gospel tinged soul, country and s##t kicking R&B."
"Fab themed early 70s album, his take on country spiced with soul and blues. "Funny how time slips away" is worthy of Bobby Bland, "Whole lotta shakin' goin' on" is a bruising drum powered beast."
"Final gospel LP is very much in the genre mixing vein of some of his other early 70s music; Blues and country both have an influence on the music on this great offering."
