Editorial Review:

Product Description:
\N

Amazon.com:
In 1987, RCA released a one-disc Elvis compilation called The Number One Hits that featured 18 tracks. So how did the label come up with 12 additional number ones (13 if you count the sensational "A Little Less Conversation" remix that brings the King into the 21st century as a bona fide dance/electronica star)? Well, the '87 compilation featured only Billboard number ones. "In the Ghetto" and "Burning Love" never reached the top there, nor did "Way Down," despite every copy of that 45 selling out on both sides of the Atlantic following Presley's 1977 death. Instead, the new compilers have used the major pop charts in both the U.S. (including Cashbox) and U.K. to determine inclusions. The tracks have all been remixed from original masters, which proves awesome at best (some of the songs have never sounded crisper if, at times, slightly antiseptic) and problematic at worst. Purists will definitely quibble. "A Fool Such As I," for instance, sounds like Elvis rerecorded his vocals. Hank Garland's great guitar solo also sounds different. It might be an alternate take. That's definitely the case with "The Wonder of You." A few lyrics are even different, meaning this isn't the same version as the original 45. Of course, none of that should matter to the youngsters who've been singing along to "Hound Dog" on the Lilo & Stitch soundtrack, or to any other newcomers. Despite the complaints, this is arguably the best single disc Elvis primer to date. Real fans will want to explore much deeper for treasures to be found, but albums like this guarantee that this is one king who will deservedly live very long, if not forever. --Bill Holdship




Rating: - elvis the king
Just one word: The King. Elvis is still the best of rock music, he is one of the best singers of all times. This collector item is a must! I wish his song "Blue Sued Shoes" was included as well.

Rating: - The best CD I own
Not a bad song on this CD. If you are an Elvis lover this is a "must have" CD.

Rating: - My 17 month old loves this music!
We really enjoy the CD...gets us going in the afternoon when we lose our energy.

Rating: - He is the King!
Here is the King at his best. The subtitle "30 #1 HITS" is slightly misleading, because you get the bonus track of "A Little Less Conversation." I can't imagine life without "Don't Be Cruel," "It's Now or Never," "Return to Sender," "Suspicious Minds" and "Burning Love"! These are a few of my favorite Elvis songs. Your favorites will be on this CD too! A must have for loyal fans of the King!

Rating: - Great but a bit confusing
The 30 #1 singles on this CD were #1 in either the U.S. the U.K or both.
I understand, as the liner notes explain, that they stuck strictly to the "Pop" chart #1 singles and didn't attempt to included songs that hit #1 on the U.S. Country charts and/or R&B charts as it would exceed a single disc format.
Nevertheless, there is one very big #1 Elvis "Pop" single in the U.S. that is not on this set but is saved for the follow up CD "2nd to None".
The song is "I Want You, I Need You, ... Read More
