5.0 out of 5 stars An Essential Collection, February 27, 2000

"Such a Night: Essential Elvis Volume 6" is a stellar compilation of alternate takes from Elvis Presley's Nashville sessions during 1960-64. The best of these studio recordings show remarkable versatility and style, particularly "Give Me the Right," "Fever" and "I'm Comin' Home." It's also great to hear alternate versions of Elvis classics such as "Little Sister" and "It Hurts Me." With the exception of Presley's Memphis sessions in 1969, these Nashville tracks represent his best studio work during the 1960s. "Such a Night" once again proves that Elvis made his finest music after his return from military service.

Wow, I just can't get enough of this one. The sound is amazing and the cuts are out of this world.Vocally, Elvis may not have EVER sounded better than he did during this period of his life. Hats off too BMG for an OUTSTANDING product. It is A MUST HAVE.

5.0 out of 5 stars Elvis in the studio 1960-64, eternal quest for perfection, May 18, 2001

By

This review is from: Such a Night: The Essential Elvis 6 (Audio CD)

There was nothing wrong with Elvis Presley after he came out of the army as this excellent selection of 20 Nashville studio cuts from 1960-64 amply proves. Yet the fact remains that his voice had changed and that the material he recorded was quite different from the regular pre-army stuff. The raw rock `n' roll was replaced by milder rock and pop, as illustrated by "Such A Night", "Stuck On You", "Night Rider", "Little Sister", and "Suspicion". In ballads like "Fever", "I Met Her Today", and "It Hurts Me" Elvis had never sounded better, attaining a kind of vocal perfection that is quite awesome. If there is anything that links these songs then it must be the quest for perfection by Elvis and his band. That these are "only" outtakes, some of them sounding at least as good as the masters, makes it even more amazing. The sound quality of this CD is outstanding. Highly recommended.
