CD Reviews

Overdue reissue

R. Riis | NY | 03/19/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The plethora of remastered Elvis sacred anthologies has made the original individual albums obsolete, but afficianados still appreciate hearing the music in its original context and enjoying the original cover [booklet] art. The remastered sound (done in 2007, apparently) is excellent, and the additional of three tracks, including Elvis' Grammy-winning "You'll Never Walk Alone", is a nice bonus. Nitpicks: "Peace in the Valley", the final cut on the original 1967 album, has been cut (the 1957 track is available on myriad CDs), and the cover art has been cropped (especially noticeable on the top and bottom) and reproduced darker and more color-saturated than the original, which does nothing to improve it.."

What a great talent

Antonio | Albuquerque, NM | 05/19/2010

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Who doesn't love Elvis? There will never be another. I love the rawness in these recordings. There is no image in pelvic thrusts or curled lips, just a true demonstration of Elvis's talent. His interpretations of "How Great Thou Art" and "In The Garden" are my favorites. The collaboration of, what sounds like, a Southern Gospel Choir is fantastic and very soulful. I am a big fan of a great voice - and my opinion is a Gospel album is the best place to hear the story the singer has to tell. This collection is definately a must have for anyone's collection."

Classic Album in best-ever Remastered sound: How Great It is

Roy Hamilton | Muncie, Indiana | 11/09/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I agree with the two other reviewers but to the fan from Virginia, it should be noted that this "How Great Thou Art" release is in the best-ever sound and in the original context, as opposed to those great but overwhelming collections.

This is a classic (and under-heralded) Elvis album that deservedly is back in stores in better than ever sound, despite the minor cover art imperfections as noted by the other reviewer. There may be an extended "FTD" release of this album soon by Sony for its die-hard collector label for who like all the outtakes (etc.) but until then, this is a total gem, and at budget prices, well-worth picking up with all the two-other remastered gospel albums by Elvis."
