ELVIS PRESLEY & THE ROYAL PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA "if i can dream"

obviously not a "new" album because the guy has been dead almost forty years but...
The Presley Estate retrieved the original studio vocals of Presley of a dozen or so
tracks and paid the RPO to set the music to those songs....
songs for the most part are okay as unlike the original mixes Presley's voice is a bit
more in the foreground so we can hear his rich vocals....
some of these songs would have done well to have been recorded with an Orchestra originally
but they weren't, and that's the way it was meant to be...
Even though this is a well recorded set that doesn't diminish the legacy of Presley I just
don't know who the heck would want to buy this....
I mean, im a huge Presley fan and the only way i'll get it is if this is in a discount bin at
some point....
that said, 10/10 for the Estate of Presley for trying new things to keep the torch burning
in Presleyland....
