CD Reviews

Enough

David L. Banes | McEwen, Tennessee United States | 07/31/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I give it five stars because the music is good,but enough is enough.They did not have to get very creative to package this one.Not much different in content from last years Elvis Live except one of these songs is a studio track.I give it 5 stars for the music and 2 stars for the companys creativity.Surely there must be a live version of Viva Las Vegas in their vaults.This rehashed collection is only for the die hard fan or for those who don't already own his other live cds.I just believe for a thiriteth anniversary they could have done better."

RCA, please do better

ElvisFan | Akron, Oh | 08/02/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I give this 5 stars because of the music, which is awesome. It shows Elvis once again re-inventing himself, this time concentrating on his live performances. RCA could have done so much better, though. There are no unreleased performances that they could package and put out for the fans? Well, there are. They are on the FTD (Follow That Dream) label. The CD's range from live concerts to versions of songs never before heard. They are like bootleg CD's, but done professionally. I recommend them over the stuff RCA puts out every year."

Nothing new here...

Media Junkie | 08/14/2007

(3 out of 5 stars)

"I gotta agree with the other reviewers here--all of the tracks are previously released material, over-polished by RCA and containing none of the live-concert feel of the FTD CDs. Tacking on the studio recording of "Viva Las Vegas" at the start and giving it that title is just a cheap marketing ploy. But, hey, if it reminds people of the greatness of Elvis Presley and dispels some of the unfair myths of him as just an overweight has-been in later years--fine with me.

In other words, if you know Elvis, skip this. If you're a casual fan or a newcomer, you'll be amazed at the power of his live performances. RCA never got it right, and they prove it again with this release. Like others, I just can't believe this is the best they could come up with on the big anniversary."
