There's still a lot of churn on this album. It's an improvement on the lame film soundtracks, but hardly the future of rock 'n' roll. It's the voice as ever that pulls it off. There's some great harmonies with both the make and female backing singers. In the Ghetto is a great hertbreaker song. But I wanted something a little more dangerous before Elvis heads to the hotel circuit and death on the shitter.

The King's partial return to form after he finally gave up on his movie career. One or two plodders stops this being 5 stars, but I love pretty much everything about this - the songs, the performances, the American Sound Studio production. A great set of songs, and In The Ghetto has to be up there as one of Elvis' finest later recordings.
