 One of the best Elvis cd's I have ever heard October 29, 2007
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I was pleasantly surprised with this cd. This is the music that made Elvis, from That's all Right to Suspicious Minds. You can always find a song to sing along to.
The Essential Elvis Presley October 20, 2007
Well, who'd give an Elvis Presley album less than five stars if they'd gone to all the trouble to hunt it up and order it? Of course I like it. A day without Elvis is like a summer without roses. Why we don't give every newborn an Elvis CD is beyond me. Sometimes the federal and state governments lack imagination. A nice album. I would have been happier,
though, if it had contained "A Fool Such as I". But it didn't. Neither
was "I Want You, I Need You, I Love You". Nor was there "Trying To Get
To You". But, you know, it's so cheap and sleazy to second guess the poor
guys that have to jam a major artist's work onto two CDs. The Essential
Elvis Presley is an excellent starting point for an Elvis collection.

 One glaring omission, one glaringly bad inclusion January 17, 2007
6 out of 13 found this review helpful
What were they thinking when they put this collection together? Yes, it has almost - ALMOST - all of Elvis's greatest hits but where is "One Night"? And why, why, why would they dare to include Elvis's horrendous live version of "Polk Salad Annie" and omit a classic like "One Night"? It is for that glaring omission and that glaringly bad inclusion that I give this collection a rating of 4 rather than 5. Hey, I love Elvis Presley's music as much as anyone but he had no business recording "Polk Salad Annie." There's only one version of that song that should ever be heard and that's the original by the song's writer, Tony Joe White.
