EXTD=ollection of sad ballads recorded by Elvis between 1969 and 1977. After hi
EXTD=s marriage broke up, Elvis was drawn to material that reflected what was h
EXTD=appening in his personal life. So, he recorded a lot of songs about the en
EXTD=d of a relationship. An example of this is "Hurt", where he sings, "You sa
EXTD=id our love was true and we'd never ever part. Now you love someone new an
EXTD=d it breaks my heart.". When he gets to the recitation part where he says,
EXTD= "Yes, darling, I'm so hurt, because I still love you so.", you can tell t
EXTD=hat he really means it. But wasn't it Elton John who said, "Sad songs say 
EXTD=so much."? Listening to this CD will give you an idea of what was going th

EXTD=at the time, and put a lot of time into tracking it down on CD. At the tim
EXTD=e I had never heard any of the other songs on this album (with the excepti

EXTD=ugh the heartaches of growing up, I appreciate this album so much more.\nE
EXTD=lvis was an incredibly talented and gifted man, and I cherish this CD. Whi

EXTD=us work, and he really expresses raw emotion and pain very beautifully.\nT
EXTD=his album is a must have for the collection of any Elvis fan, but even the
EXTD= casual listener can find enjoyment here. The music is slow and easy to re
