What is this...Gospel Volume 23 redux?? For the general public? Here's what the "general" public does...they browse, pick up the 7 or 8 Gospel cd's...see the same songs on all of them, and perhaps picks the one with the most songs that give them the best bang for their buck. Enough already BMG. While you've made great strides since the abomination dating back to Elvis' lifetime ("Burning Love and Hits From His Movies" anyone??) This has got to stop. Want to impress us? Keep up with the bootleggers. FTD at this point should be the only source for Elvis releases.

I like the cover. It's simple and to the point. Reflecting the purity and simplicty of the gospel music contained therein. The track selection is superb. Couldn't be better(imo).

The cover is plain & simple, but not an eye catcher. This is why so many people will not notice it on the shelves.

Oooooooooooh! Anyway, each one of us have our own opinion, ok, but I can't keep mine just for myself. I don't bother a thing about the tracklisting 'cos I like almost all the gospel that Elvis recorded. I have so many gospel compilations and the regular albums too, that the ''multiplication'' of any song is so great that I don't mind which ones are included here. But the cover sucks, as James69 has written, because it looks like a budget (and very cheap) CD, as the CAMDEN compilations were on the seventies. It has EXACTLY the same cover style that have maby of the CDs that you see in the mall shops, compilations that are not made by the original label of the artist (hope I have explained what I mean). After all we have to wait the BMG confirmation of both: tracklisting and cover.

I agree with Jon Burrows: if you don't like it, then don't buy it - nag, nag, nag, nag, nag, nag, nag - and kev, just how many of the general public would buy a cd with one disc of Elvis gospel songs? Propably more than buy a cd set with two (Amazing Grace) or three (Peace In The Valley), and then there are those that want the cheapest cd

Track listing is ok, but that cover sucks! C'mon BMG how UN-original is that?

"The Trouble With Girls" was filmed from October 28th 1968, to December 16th 1968. It was released September 3rd 1969. It would be nice if they used the full picture for the cover shot.

The photo is from, "The Trouble With Girls." It was filmed in late 68 and released in 69. I believe Elvis is playing the piano in this picture, with his eyes down looking at the piano keys.

I liked very much the cover art. The tracklisting is fantastic. I agree with Honk. 1º: Where is "Where No One Stands Alone" ? 2º: If this release is not for Elvis fans, they will have to promote this one here. Here in Brazil, many, many, many people ain´t even know that Elvis 30#1 Hits exists! What a shame BMG...

I love the cover -- simple with class! Gospel sells. This is for the general public. Is an "Elvis: Ultimate County" also planned for release?

same old stuff, in a rubbish cover. We`ll get it in DSD which means ud die-hards will buy it again. Didn`t we just get a gospel cd on tnew xmas album. I agree with Jaap a different approach is needed. I`d still rather have 2nd to none in DVD Audio....WAKE UP!!!!

I just love the cover! It's good and simple. It shows Elvis at his peak, somewhere in '69 I think. I for one, am not going to buy this one, though. Every original Elvis gospel track has already been released twice in the past ten years and I have them already. I might buy a new set of gospels only if it's complete (like Peace In the Valley) and if it has the new upgraded sound (from E1 & 2nd) or if it is in SACD or DVD 5.1. sound

I just want to comment on what Ernst Jorgensen has said on Bill Burk´s Elvis World Luncheon; this release is not solely for the fans, as so many think here - this release is also for the public (it´s necessary to promote Elvis to the public; I hope some demanding Elvis fans release that), and especially for the music store owners - as they have seen Amazing Grace and Peace In The Valley for such a long time, that they think it´s boring and if you don´t replace the cd´s with a new cover we´re gonna miss the shelve place for Elvis. And if you don´t like it, then don´t buy it!
