Album Notes Personnel includes: Elvis Presley (vocals, guitar); The Jordanaires, The Amigos, The Sweet Inspirations. Compilation producers: Ernst Mikael Jorgensen, Ray Bardani. Includes liner notes by Peter Guralnick. With the international chart-topping success of ELVIS: 30 #1 HITS, the handlers of Elvis Presley's estate attempt to capture lightning in a bottle again with ELVIS: 2ND TO NONE. This compilation does not disappoint, thanks to a mix of number one hits, miscellaneous movie numbers and much-loved favorites. There's even a Paul Oakenfold remix of "Rubberneckin'" that seeks to replicate the success of the JXL radio edit remix of "A Little Less Conversation" from the aforementioned anthology. With this chronologically arranged track listing, it's interesting to trace the King's musical influences, be it Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup ("That's All Right"), Charlie Feathers ("I Forgot to Remember to Forget"), or Carl Perkins ("Blue Suede Shoes"). Likewise for the stable of songwriters he drew from, including the teams of Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller ("Love Me," "Loving You") and Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman ("Little Sister," "A Mess of Blues"). Most impressive are the nuggets plucked off numerous Presley soundtracks, including JAILHOUSE ROCK, FUN IN ACAPULCO, VIVA LAS VEGAS and BLUE HAWAII. Toss in the previously unreleased "I'm a Roustabout," and 2ND TO NONE becomes an essential for diehard and casual Elvis fans alike. | Find errors in the product description?

Somebody was right on the money here "Second to None".. Don't miss the opportunity to put this in your collection.. Review ID: 10000000007498887 Was this review helpful? Report this review Review created: 03/05/08 by: I love Elvis' music. I bought THIS music CD for the AMERICAN TRILOGY compilation only. But, what I got was so much more. Of course, I love the American Trilogy selection, but there are SO many more songs on here that are wonderful Elvis favorites. I am MORE than pleased that I decided to buy it. Well worth the investment in my book! Review ID: 10000000005993245 Was this review helpful? Report this review 2 of 2 people found this review helpful. This is really a great collection, and the natural sequel to "30 No 1 Hits". All the great songs that never made it to number 1 in the charts. But since Elvis recorded over 700 songs, they are still the very best of his work. There's also the great remix of "Rubberneckin'", this alone is worth the price of this CD. If you want the essential Elvis songs, buy this CD. Then also buy "30 No 1 Hits" to make your collection complete. Review ID: 10000000004431724 Was this review helpful?
