Fantastic!!
I just got my copy of this latest compilation of Elvis love songs, and this is a real treat, folks!! With the exception of "She wears my ring" and a handful of others, this is really Elvis the balladeer as we would really like to remember him. A few tracks are sorely missed, as it is the case with "Memories" and "Hurt", and there's a couple of others I would have not chosen for this particular CD, like "You've lost that loving feeling" - whose bombastic approach derails the listener from the overall "soft" nature of most of the songs found therein- but, on the whole, this wonderful CD is a clear, unequivocal reminder to those with little knowledge of Presley's uncanny attributes as a balladeer (applicable to most of today's singers) that they all have a lot to learn from him, not merely as a rocker, gospel, C&W, or pop singer, but as a singer of love songs as well. Buy it, and you may also learn something..

The best compilation of Elvis love songs
There have been several compilations of Elvis love songs but I think this is the best. Several of the songs selected are the obvious classics that will be forever associated with Elvis (even if one or two of them were previously recorded by other singers) - these include Are you lonesome tonight, Can't help falling in love, Always on my mind, It's now or never, Love me tender, A fool such as I, The wonder of you and There goes my everything.There also some classic Elvis songs that aren't always selected for compilations of this type (She's not you, Good luck charm) as well as covers of songs generally associated with other singers, but which Elvis sing superbly. These include Hawaiian wedding song, Spanish eyes, You've lost that loving feeling, Make the world go away, Let it be me, And I love you so, You don't have to say you love me and Unchained melody.As well as the obvious hits and covers, this album also contains some great songs that are not well known -...

Definitive
Great collection of many of Elvis' love songs (or slower songs). Album one is the early Elvis, while Album 2 is the older, Vegas-style Elvis. Together, they offer a good look at these different stages in his muscial career, which offer very disparate styles. And with 50 songs, this pretty much covers all of the "love" songs Elvis had, so it's a fairly definitive collection. For that reason, it's a great buy.

It's a shame that only one side of Elvis' multi-faceted talent is remembered 25 years on from his death but there is so much more to the millennium's greatest performer than garish jump suits and shaky legs. The 50 Greatest Love Songs reminds us what a great singer Presley was; coming from the heart with more feeling and passion than most could ever imagine, all 50 of these songs are classics of the last four decades. The double disc set includes all the up-tempo standards like the incredible "Suspicious Minds", "I just can't help believin'" and "Always On My Mind" plus the Dusty Springfield signature tune "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me". Also included are some of his older works from before and during the cinema years like "Good Luck Charm", "Love Me Tender" and "Old Shep". So no blue shoes, no sequinned jump suits, just the king singing about life, love and heartache. --Georgina Collins Top to learn more
