Elvis Presley - Peace in the Valley - A very special collection of gospel music by The King of Rock 'n' Roll. All Elvis fans should obtain a copy of this CD for their own enjoyment. Elvis' singing career started with gospel music; and, he sings these songs from the depth of his heart. It is obvious that he feels a deep sense of his Southern roots when he is immersed in these songs. The words are smooth in his voice. The words to the songs bring a gentle relief to the soul. He makes you want to sing along with him because he is enjoying what he is singing!
Elvis Presley will live on in most peoples' minds as a rock and roll singer, but his first "singing" love and the basis for his future music was set in gospel music. Most of the music on these CDs will be familiar to most people which makes it a great addition to anyone's library of Elvis music.
I love all of Elvis' music because he brings a tenderness, liveliness, and sincerity to all of his songs. They are songs that we can all relate to in one way or another, but I think his gospel music is the best! I also love this whole collection of music because, at some point or other in my life, I have sung most of these songs in a good old Baptist Church!
