The blog afyccim reviews the album 'From Elvis in Memphis'


The blog afyccim reviews Elvis Presley's album "From Elvis in Memphis." Above is a performance of "In the Ghetto," which the reviewer said was the "highlight" of the collection.

 Some portions of the review:

  1. "Rolling Stone magazine ranked it #190 on the “500 Greatest Albums of all Time” list."
  2. " I love these songs so much because I’ve loved this style of music for as long as I can remember, and it connects me to my dad. Music is at its most powerful and most enjoyable when we have an emotional connection to it"
  3. "I really don’t think there are any weak songs on this album. Every track is unique and masterfully arranged, and managed to hold my attention, which is a feat in itself!"
  4. "The absolute highlight for me is the album’s chilling closer ‘In the Ghetto’ which always gives me goosebumps. Released as a single, this became Elvis’s biggest hit since 1965. I liked this album more with each listen and I think it has something for everyone."
