If Every Day Was like Christmas - Special Edition (1994)

By AlohaEagles
CD Info: http://elvisoncd.com/eigenecd/CD/i/ifervereydaywaslikechristmas.htm

Note from AlohaEagles:

Dear all,

I have made a 3D model of "Graceland at Christmas," based on the 1994 release of "If Every Day Was Like Christmas."
All the instructions for you to make a replica are contained within the several files.
I have used Microsoft Publisher 2003 to create the project, so anyone who has this (or any later version) should be able to open the files and print without any difficulty.
However, for anyone who doesn't have the programme, I have also added .jpeg files of everything you need.

Please enjoy and Seasons Greetings to you all. Whatever your faith or beliefs, I wish you a very happy and safe time.

AlohaEagles

PS: Of course I have no claim to the original artwork that I have used/modified for my project; however, I have spent many, many hours working on this (to share with you) and would be very grateful if this were not shared elsewhere.

Thanks.

The Ultimate Christmas Collection (1957-1971) (2010)

By JimmyCool
CD Info: The ultimate Elvis' Christmas CD you'll ever need!

This is the best single-disc compilation of Elvis' Christmas songs that you can get, with the best sound ever heard.

The King of Rock & Roll recorded music for every occasion and has been packaged in every shape and size imaginable. This collection is a particularly generous overview (29 tracks!) of all his Christmas recordings and a some Gospel songs (including alternate takes). Guests include the Jordanaires and the Imperials Quartet.

This collection combines the 1957 version of "Elvis' Christmas Album" and his 1971 "Elvis Sings The Wonderful World of Christmas" album.
Elvis recorded 20 Christmas songs during his career. All of them are on this CD in chronological order (including a live version of "Blue Christmas" from the '68 Comeback Special,) in addition to 8 Gospel songs in reversed chronological order.

The songs recorded for the 1957 "Elvis' Christmas Album" are outstanding! Elvis is in top form for these songs and several of them have become Christmas classics still receiving radio play 50 years after they were recorded!

The rest of the songs from his 1971 "The Wonderful World of Christmas" album are good but not in the same class as the earlier recordings. Elvis' voice seems strained on a few songs and in general the material is not has strong as his earlier recordings. But still they are very good and certainly worthy of listening to during the Christmas season.

If you are looking for a collection of Elvis Christmas music and some of his mellow Gospel songs, this is the collection for you!

Sad Songs - "Always On My Mind" 30th Anniversary Edition (2014)

By JimmyCool

"Always On My Mind" was a concept compilation album produced by Gregg Geller and released by RCA in June of 1985, given over to breakup songs. Especially after his own divorce in 1972, Presley showed a real affection for maudlin, self-pitying material like "Don't Cry, Daddy" (actually recorded in January 1969 and a Top Ten hit), "You Gave Me A Mountain" (recorded in January 1973), and, of course, the excuse-filled title track (recorded in March 1972, the month after he was legally separated from his wife). This is a new expanded version with Elvis' saddest songs. It's all here; put it on, raise a glass, and cry in your beer. Note: This is a homemade compilation.

1. Separate Ways (2:51)
