5 out of 5 stars Fabulous!.......2006-01-26

I've had this CD since it was released and, later, tried
to buy for friends but it's very difficult to find. Every
artist on this CD gives an exceptional performance
but my favorite was Marty Pello from Wet Wet Wet. He was
just awesome. This was a live performance that was broadcast
on TV. Would love to see a DVD released.

5 out of 5 stars Pop, rock and country stars sing Elvis songs.......2005-07-05

This tribute album has some similarities with the Honeymoon in Vegas soundtrack, which also featured pop, rock and country stars paying tribute to Elvis, but this collection is not as strong overall. Nevertheless, there is some great music here.

Among the performances by country stars, Travis Tritt (Lawdy Miss Clawdy) and Dwight Yoakam (Mystery Train) both turn in rousing performances as expected but some of you may be surprised at the fine performance by Faith Hill (Trying to get to you). Faith has her critics but shows here that, given the right song and the right production, she is brilliant Of the other country recordings, my favorites are Don't be cruel (Marty Stuart) and Let me be your teddy bear (Tanya Tucker).

Highlights among the pop and rock performances include Aaron Neville (a soulful version of Young and beautiful), Chris Isaak (Blue moon), Bryan Adams (Hound dog) and Wet wet wet (It's now or never).

If you only want one Elvis tribute album, I recommend Honeymoon in Vegas. If you enjoy that and want more, this is worthy of consideration.

5 out of 5 stars Elvis - A tribute to the King.......2004-03-25

This tribute exceeds any type of rating. Ronnie McDowell does a super super job. I can listen to him all day. One of his best. It is hard to tell whether it is Elvis singing or Ronnie singing. Way to go Ronnie!

5 out of 5 stars Greatest ever tribute to the King.......2001-12-02

Ronnie McDowell has long been associated with the music of Elvis Presley, having been employed as Elvis' singing voice in several films and television shows. McDowell also enjoys a successful career in his own right, with country hits spanning from the 70s to the early 90s. In 1997 he recorded this 20 track Elvis tribute in his usual tasteful and exciting style. What makes the project extra special is the musical backing provided by Elvis' original guitarist (Scotty Moore), drummer (DJ Fontana) and vocal backing by the fabulous Jordanaires. Standout tracks include One Broken Heart For Sale, with a slightly reworked vocal line to the original, plus fantastic, rockin' versions of Got A Lot O'Livin' To Do, Lawdy Miss Clawdy and King Creole. It's also a delight to hear Ronnie cover ballads including Love Me, It Hurts Me - one of Elvis' most under-rated songs - and Crying In The Chapel. The album closes with the only original song, Tupelo's Too Far, which illustrates Ronnie's individual talent. Forget the majority of bloated Elvis impersonators who embarrass themselves and the memory of the legend. Ronnie McDowell's tribute to his hero is faultless and should encourage the listener to buy Ronnie's own CDs which maintain the quality of this release.

I think this man has more talent in his little pinky than most of the artist you hear over and over on the radio 20 times a day! I know I speak for MOST Americans out there, when I say I wish they would give us more variety to listen to over the radio, and play some of the older artists too! They are still just as popular and talented today, and I wish we heard more of them! I GIVE THIS ALBUM, ALONG WITH OTHERS OF RONNIE'S 2 THUMBS UP! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, WE LOVE YOU!

what better way to let Elvis fans know after 20 years that Ronnie McDowell is still his biggest fan. These songs prove that. Mostly Elvis songs with the Ronnie touch.. and yet after 20 long years one can still hear echos of Elvis. The additon of Tupelo's Too Far closes the tribute...well done Ronnie and thank you once again for bringing us Scotty Moore's "nostalgic" fantastic talent. :)

    Album Description

    This CD album is an epic sweep through 20th century gospel music as celebrated in the songs of southern and country gospel Americana. The world's foremost vocal backing group, The Jordanaires, are featured on a number of tracks, along with "kings of western swing", Art Greenhaw & The Light Crust Doughboys and the "king of instrumental guitar", Nokie Edwards, famous former lead guitarist of The Ventures, the best-selling guitar combo of all time. This star-studded lineup sings and plays their way through patriotic-God and country hymns of the church, Christian country classics and southern gospel gems. A few of the more traditional, never-before-released collectors' choice cuts spotlight the southern gospel singer of the century, James Blackwood, backed vocally by the 1970s Blackwood Brothers Quartet. This September 2004 release is part of the acclaimed Greenhaw Records' series of gospel music which has earned Grammy Awards and Grammy Nominations the past 6-out-of-7 years. 20th Century Gospel also features the hit song, "Gospel Woman", as sung by Art Greenhaw with The Jordanaires and called by trade magazines "the freshest, most original country-gospel crossover song of 2004...ushering in a whole new genre of music: Gospel romance..."

    5 out of 5 stars A Glorious Companion to Grammy-winning Blackwood Tribute.......2004-10-13

    This CD is the perfect follow-up to their Grammy winning "We Called Him Mr. Gospel Music". A glorious musical achievement for this or any other year, Art Greenhaw and his music mates have created some of the most memorable sounds ever ---with songs like "Gospel Woman". I won't give the song away, but one listen to it, and you'll be searching, searching, searching for your very own Gospel Woman. Let's hope we find her! The Jordanaires are here reminiscent of their very finest work with Elvis, as they sing and doo-wap as the perfect compliment to the rich and warm baritone vocals of Greenhaw. And Greenhaw's the perfect lead for the Jordanaires. It's a match made in heaven, and it's 1960s pop magic all over again, it's Jim Reeves, it's Elvis, it's Ricky Nelson, it's the best of progressive country-gospel as these gospel gems become magic, magic in the hands of the singers, the Jordanaires and Art. And what an addition the new face in the spotlight is: it's Nokie Edwards of The Ventures :Les Paul, Chet Atkins and Scotty Moore all rolled into one. Nokie and his band, The Ventures, are like the equivalent of the Beatles all over Japan. What will happen when the Japanese people hear this American brand of country and classic gospel? I think they'll go nuts, and it'll be Beatlemania and Venturemania all over again! I think there will be Japanese "gospel rock" and gospel country tours bringing out all the guitar bands trying to copy and emulate this American, superstar sound.Along with the better-than-ever Jordanaires---and thanks to Greenhaw Records for mixing and recording the group the best ever---listeners of this CD are treated to the power singing of James Blackwood, the singer Art has called the greatest lead singer in gospel history. And on top of this, the gospel instrumental arrangements of American hymns and patriotic sacred classics are unique and outstanding. Maybe the greatest yet in the series of masterpieces from the little indie record label from Texas. Fans, get this CD, and be first in line to experience the innovation of the best gospel label of the 21st century---paying tribute to the greatest sounds of the 20th century. This CD is an instant classic, one destined for the halls of fame of recording science. What a wonderful world of classic gospel and country gospel music with sprinkling of classic rock ---and filled with the greatest vocals this side of heaven. Watch for these classic songs in the next movie such as "The Apostle" of a few years back.
