Advantages: It's Elvis!

Disadvantages: None

This album, 2ND TO NONE, is a sequel of sorts to the previous CD, 30 #1 HITS (which actually featured 31 songs that had made it to number 1 in the charts in either the UK or the US). This particular CD featured another set of hits plus 2 rather special tracks, which I'll mention later.

Amongst the hits are such fantastic tracks as VIVA LAS VEGAS (from the great film of the same name) and KENTUCKY RAIN, which is one of my favourites and one that I often sing at karaoke. Although these are my 2 favourite tracks on the album all of them are brilliant. The 2 special tracks come at the end - the first, I'M A ROUSTABOUT is a newly discovered gem from the songs recorded for the film ROUSTABOUT. This song was recorded but not used and was lost for decades, but surfaced just as this album was being prepared. The second addition is the Paul Oakenfold remix of RUBBERNECKIN' which is almost as good as the JXL version of A LITTLE LESS CONVERSATION which closed out the former album.

This is a great CD for Elvis fans and newcomers alike.

Summary: Elvis truly was second to none.
