Advantages: Elvis
Disadvantages: None
Released in 2002 this album is a collection of 31 Elvis songs which reached number 1 in either the UK or the USA. And yes, it is 31 and not 30, as the album was being prepared before the remix of A LITTLE LESS CONVERSATION hit the charts - when this track reached number 1 the record company added it onto this album as a 'bonus' track.
The joy of an album such as this is hearing a range of songs from across Elvis' 23 year career, beginning with HEARTBREAK HOTEL from the 1950s, through 1960s classics such as CRYING IN THE CHAPEL, right up to the end with WAY DOWN, recorded in 1977, the last year of Elvis' life. The inclusion of the remix of A LITTLE LESS CONVERSATION only goes to show that Elvis' music will leave forever.
This is an album which deserves a place in every music lover's collection.
