Picked this up back in 1988 when it was first released. CD's were just starting to take off in popularity in the mid to late 80's, so this was a welcome addition back then.
It was produced by TimeLife Music and captured 22 songs Elvis recorded between 1954 and 1961. It came with a 7 page booklet that was informative and had a couple of pictures in it. In addition, the booklet indicated the date and city where each song was recorded and the highest chart position each song achieved. Not a bad cd for its day....Here's the complete track listing: That's All Right Mama Heartbreak Hotel Hound Dog Love Me Tender Don't Be Cruel All Shook Up I Wan't You, I Need You, I Love You Jailhouse Rock Love Me Teddy Bear Too Much Hard Headed Woman One Night Wear My Ring Around Your Neck A Fool Such As I Don't A Big Hunk O' Love It's Now or Never Stuck on You Are You Lonesome Tonight Little Sister Can't Help Falling In Love This post has been edited by BJBAmerica: May 16 2006, 02:13 AM
