Elvis’ 24 greatest recordings painstakingly compiled and remastered from the original one-, two- and three-track master tapes lovingly stored in the vaults of RCA-Victor. All the hits are here from «Heartbreak Hotel» to «Suspicious Minds.» Elvis as we’ve never heard him before.
«‘Love Me Tender’ was the theme song from the first Elvis movie and represented a new sound for the King. He sang in his softest voice, accompanied only by his own acoustic guitar. The melody came from the Civil War-era ballad ‘Aura Lee.'» – Rolling Stone
