EXTD=eleases commemorating Elvis Presley's fiftieth birthday, ALWAYS O
EXTD=N MY MIND collects thirteen songs about heartbreak and regret. Al
EXTD=l were recorded between 1969 and 1977, when Elvis turned increasi
EXTD=ngly to this type of sad--critics might say self-pitying--materia
EXTD=l. Like most of Presley's '70s material, the recordings on ALWAYS
EXTD= ON MY MIND are lavishly produced and dramatically performed, wit
EXTD=h plenty of theatrically quiet moments followed by overpowering c
EXTD=rescendos. \n\nPresley sings in a near-operatic baritone, his wid
EXTD=e vibrato and precipitous changes in volume assisting his efforts
EXTD= to wring every ounce of emotion from the material at hand. The q
EXTD=uality of the songs makes ALWAYS ON MY MIND a solid introduction 
EXTD=to Presley's much-neglected later music. Among the many highlight
EXTD=s are the country-tinged "Bitter They Are, Harder They Fall," "Pi

EXTD=ng "trivia buff" (Bethel, CT United States)\nThis is a collection
EXTD= of sad ballads recorded by Elvis between 1969 and 1977. After hi
EXTD=s marriage broke up, Elvis was drawn to material that reflected w
EXTD=hat was happening in his personal life. So, he recorded a lot of 
EXTD=songs about the end of a relationship. An example of this is "Hur
EXTD=t", where he sings, "You said our love was true and we'd never ev
EXTD=er part. Now you love someone new and it breaks my heart.". When 
EXTD=he gets to the recitation part where he says, "Yes, darling, I'm 
EXTD=so hurt, because I still love you so.", you can tell that he real
EXTD=ly means it. But wasn't it Elton John who said, "Sad songs say so
EXTD= much."? Listening to this CD will give you an idea of what was g
EXTD=oing through Elvis' mind during the last years of his life. \n\n\n

EXTD=uly 15, 2004\nReviewer: Liz "LoftyKitten" (Springfield, MO USA)\n
EXTD=When I was twelve years old I chanced to hear the song "Don't Cry
EXTD= Daddy" on the radio, for the first and only time. While that may
EXTD= not be the most loved Elvis song, I related to it at the time, a
EXTD=nd put a lot of time into tracking it down on CD. At the time I h
EXTD=ad never heard any of the other songs on this album (with the exc
EXTD=eption of Unchained Melody by other artists). Over the years, hav
EXTD=ing gone through the heartaches of growing up, I appreciate this 
EXTD=album so much more.\nElvis was an incredibly talented and gifted 
EXTD=man, and I cherish this CD. While I do love all Elvis music, incl
EXTD=uding his more upbeat hits, the tracks on this album are really s
EXTD=omething special. They are deeper than his previous work, and he 
EXTD=really expresses raw emotion and pain very beautifully.\nThis alb
EXTD=um is a must have for the collection of any Elvis fan, but even t
EXTD=he casual listener can find enjoyment here. The music is slow and
EXTD= easy to relax to, and whenever I'm feeling hurt or sad about som
EXTD=ething, popping this in and singing along is a nice release.\n\n\n
EXTD=AMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW\nAlways On My Mind, November 26, 1999\n
EXTD=Reviewer: Mike Kurosky (Ft. Worth, Texas USA)\nThis album is defi
EXTD=nitely for the avid fan like myself that must have everything. Ev
EXTD=en though most of the tracks may be found elsewhere including the
EXTD= new box sets it is the quality of this album that stands out. Th
EXTD=e the song Bitter They Are Hareder They Fall to my dismay was not
EXTD= included on the 70's box set but it may be found on this compila
EXTD=tion and the original album From Elvis Presley Boulevard which to
EXTD= date has not been digitally remastered so the sound is much bett
EXTD=er on this compilation as it is with Hurt and It's Midnight.
