Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Outstanding. The King at his very best........2007-03-09

As previously mentioned by another reviewer, I agree that this is better far and beyond the original releases. Never before has the term 'Less Is More' meant so much (in music terms anyway)than it does on this fine release. You will never want to hear the original release versions of most tracks on here again once you get your chops around this album.Or at least you'll cringe on hearing the originals after this gem. Fantastic sound quality also.
Long Live The KING!

5 out of 5 stars ELVIS AT HIS BEST!!.......2005-11-19

This has to be the best cd I own. It is ALL ELVIS without backup singers. The sound is wonderful and so is Elvis. His magnificent voice is clear and soulful. It also has a lot of Elvis's wacky antics. He is having so much fun with his band. Elvis had such a hearty laugh that you can't help laughing with him. You would have loved to be there with all these crazy guys. There should be more like this. It is Elvis at his best. There will NEVER be another Elvis!!! ELVIS ROCKS!!!

5 out of 5 stars Buy it!.......2005-07-22

This is a companion CD of unreleased takes to "Elvis In Memphis", "Back In Memphis", "The Memphis Record", and "Suspicious Minds" (2CD).
In addition, get "American Crown Jewels" (alternates), "Finding The Way Home" (2CD - more alternates)and "American Rejects" (again alternates). Essential.

5 out of 5 stars Simply superb!.......2004-03-23

The audio quality is superb. I consider the 1969 American Sound Sessions to be among his finest studio work. IMO, it was the last great session he ever did.I only wish he had stuck with Chips Moman at American instead of returning to Nashville. I can recommend this CD to anyone who enjoys the American recordings. Although the songs are first-rate, I don't enjoy the false starts, dialogue and profanity. But other than that, it's a perfect set and I will listen to it many times.
