During the King's artistically unproductive military service, no expense or effort was spared (e.g., "A Date With Elvis," RCA LPM-2011), and no consoling promise of things to come was spared by management to keep Elvis alive and well in the minds of his vast fan base. Finally, the big blow was struck: "Elvis Is Back" was what everyone had been waiting to hear, and American radio and television stations turned it into a gigantic media feast.
With the ink barely dry on his demobilization papers, Elvis entered the studio in March 1960 and recorded a series of songs that later became worldwide hits, such as "Are You Lonesome Tonight" and "It's Now or Never." Released as singles, these tender ballads caused a sensation, while the LP, featuring songs like "Dirty, Dirty Feeling," "Like a Baby," and "The Thrill of Your Love," underscored Elvis's growing talent as a rock, blues, and gospel singer. That his voice, despite everyone's fears, had lost none of its erotic thrill is amply demonstrated by his rendition of "Fever," accompanied only by bass and percussion.
With its extraordinary variety of styles, this must surely be one of Elvis's most brilliant albums, unmatched until his great comeback in 1968 ("From Elvis In Memphis", RCA LSP-4155).
