THIS IS THE WAY ELVIS MUSIC SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECORDED.IT IS A SHAME THAT HIS PRODUCER PASSED AWAY BEFORE HE HAD A CHANCE TO RE-DO MORE MATERIAL.THIS IS ONE GREAT COLLECTION ABD A FRESH SOUND.I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS AND ENCOURAGE BMG TO TRY AND REPEAT THIS ON MORE ELVIS MUSIC

After Elvis died, his producer Felton Jarvis erased the instrumental tracks from some of Elvis' songs and added new backing tracks. This was a misguided attempt to "modenize" Elvis. It was actually a moderate success. The remixed version of "Guitar Man" actually reached # 1 on the country charts. Tracks # 3 to 12 here duplicate the original "Guitar Man" album. The rest of the tracks are previously unreleased songs from the same sessions. If I had to describe what these remixed songs sound like, I would say that majority of them sound like '80s country songs. For the most part, it doesn't really work for me. To my ears, "Burning Love", "Guitar Man" and "Too Much Monkey Business" are pretty good, but everything else is basically worthless. Recommended for curiosity seekers only.

Familiar songs - different backings. Well worth a listen as they are different and provide an alternative listening experience to the original masters. Take "Kentucky Rain", "Burning Love" and "I'll Be There". Good production!

Why not over-syncopate the rhythms that Elvis Presley put his heart and Soul into, and add Allman Brothers' style guitar; speed up the tape - wow, maybe that's the way Elvis would have sounded...in 1981?"Faded Love" made it onto a single - it came out o.k. in the reimagined latter-day post-production. "Blue Suede Shoes" is about 1:00 too long at 3:07 but it does feature it's composer, Mr. Carl Perkins, on the extended version of the 1969 live in Las Vegas cut.The boosted pitch and added echo do add brightness and verve to the proceedings, but I'll take a nice, clean, moderate remix on the originals, any time.With the time spent on this craziness, maybe they coulda come up with some lost Sun material.

This is an amazing hostler and is a perfect fit of the FNP-45. Is well built and recommend it to anyone.

I needed something to angle my LCD tv but did not want to install anything on to the walls. I measured the base of my tv to make sure it would fit before I bought this swivel and it works like a charm.The quality of the material and finish are very good. The actual moving part underneath the platform is compact so the TV is not sitting very high and it spins very smoothly.
