Gospel music is generally considered a niche market, so this really comes as no big surprise. However, like all of Elvis' previous sacred albums -- originals and compilations alike -- I'm sure "Ultimate Gospel" will show strong and longtime sales over time. In the meantime, we should all get out and support it as best we can right now.
