Loved all the songs, some of them heard for the first time. A few of my favorites were, "She's Not You", "Judy", "Love me Tender", "Can't Help Falling in Love", "Good Luck Charm", "The Girl of My Best Friend", "Mansion Over the Hilltop", etc. Thanks to your team of talented and dedicated group of musicians who worked on this album, incorporating exquisite musical backings so rich, that resulted in a taste that you can never forget.
I know that Elvis recorded more gospel songs that Jim did and I understand he was recognized multiple times for his religious music. He also never lost his early love of spiritual songs and it shows in the commitment and passion he poured into his gospel recordings. He does sing them with a lot of devotion and feeling. I love his gospel renditions. Wish Jim were able to record some of them.!
Thanks Larry for another splendid job of remastering these tracks with the new tools of the day thus bringing out his voice so clear and rich. A definite Voice that mirrored in the 60's and early 70's.
Listening to these overdubs of Jim, and now Elvis on a new stereo system with powerful Bose speakers which delivers the deep rich sound and crispy clear vocals of these stars is - - just out of this world. And you go Wow.
