""His Hand in Mine" was the first gospel album recorded by Elvis Presley, which was quite an event at the time. It instantly became a hit. With gospel classics such as "I Believe in the Man in the Sky", "There'll Be Peace in the Valley For Me", the album title song "His Hand in Mine" this inspirational, old classic album is a must have for all fans of Elvis and gospel music."

"I love this as I had it on Musicassette for years and felt I would like to save it to CD.

Not dissapointed, it is beautiful."

Elvis' first Gospel CD

"Released in late 1960, this was Elvis' first, full length Gospel album. It was a hit in the US climbing to 13 on the album chart and eventually being certified PLATINUM by the RIAA. It was an even bigger hit in the UK reaching 3 on the album chart there. While no singles were immediately released from the album, a few years later Joshua Fit The Battle / Known Only To Him and Milky White Way / Swing Down Sweet Chariot would be released. Swing Down Sweet Chariot would reach the top 10 in Italy in 1962 while Joshua Fit The Battle was a number 1 hit in Sweden in 1966. Both singles were minor hits in Australia in 1966 as well.



While this is an excellent CD, there are better Elvis Gospel collections available now, such as his excellent Ultimate Gospel CD. If you really want this CD, I would recommend you pass on this release and buy the US release of this album instead. It is a lot cheaper and has bonus tracks not included on this one."
