Elvis 20th Century Gospel at it's smoothestMay 02, 1999
All these songs are done beautifully. I have had this album and Elvis' other gospel albums since he was alive. His feel for this type of music was real and reveals where some of his musical roots were. He and the quartet have a blend that is somewhere between the Ames Brothers and the Everly Brothers. The songs are fast and slow and all have sweet melodies and hand clapping rhythms. My favorites are "I Believe in the Man in the Sky" (Later released as a single) and "Swing Down Sweet Chariot" and the title tune. There are no filler songs here. If you like really good gospel blended voice style songs, there are no better choices than this. The only others that I would say are this good are Elvis "How Great Thou Art" and "He Touched Me."

Personal Communication Between Artist and AudienceMar 14, 2003
By Edith Harvath
I've always felt Elvis' true love was Jesus.
Something in his voice conveys the depth and conviction of his religious beliefs. These songs are beautiful and inspiring and have brought me comfort and a sense of serenity. When you consider Elvis's own difficult life, you realize even though we are weak and frail human beings, we can have a rich and rewarding spiritual life. As a line in the title song says, "And if I fall, I know you'll understand." The songs, the voice, the depth of emotion in this cd make for a very personal communication between artist and audience. Elvis at his best.

Elvis at his bestMar 18, 2006
By Richard Laycock
"RCL"
I've heard Elvis since I was a kid in the '50s but I never appreciated his talent fully until I bought this CD. Everything about it is remarkable. Not only is the singing wonderful but Elvis had a hand in most of the arrangements. The music on most of the tracks is simply produced and sincere to the point of true inspiration.

Everlasting beautySep 01, 1998
By kenneth.jorgensen@seer.com
For more than 20 years this album from the early sixties, has been one of my best acquaintances, and I don't think I will ever get tired of listening to these happily swinging gospel songs. Though not being a religious guy at all this album just keeps on moving me each time I play it, and I can truly recommend it to anyone in search for some quality entertainment.
