Elvis Elvis Elvis - 100 Greatest Hits
A very good selection of Elvis songs, which included songs unknown to me, very good value for the money.

Greatest? Give me a (guitar) break!
This collection is top heavy with post 1960 material, a disappointment for fans of the early, vital Presley. Where is "Love Me," "So glad Your Mine," and "Tryin to Get to You" etc. etc.? Instead we find a lot of movie fluff, ballads, a plethora of "hits," so-called, that I never heard of and just as well. Also a let-down are the arrangements themselves, standard copyright-office prints that bear little resemblance to the recorded renditions. How many early Elvis hits begin with a stock piano vamp, after all? (cf. the intro to "Jailhouse Rock" for instance: what a difference a little offbeat makes!) What I wouldn't give for some original Scotty Moore riffs in score! Greatest Hits (true edition): first four albums, straight transcriptions, and no movies!

A lot of Songs for the Money!
A lot of songs for the money.A lot of rare tunes I could not find elsewhere.Some songs I never heard Elvis do and I'm a long time fan but still worth the money.I searched a lot of sites and this one the best for the money and shipping too!

Great for Elvis fans
I love this book, well written for the piano. I learned how to play a lot of songs I'd never heard before and they sound really good. I Recommend this book.

Not the greatest hits
Its is good songbook for the more expirienced player. It covers all the well known hits as All shook Up, Blue suede shoes, Hound Dog a.s.o. For the real Elvis fans it contains also less famous but very nice songs as: Slowly but surely, I feel that I've known you forever, I'm leaving and so on. Its a must for every music playing Elvisfan.
