Elvis Presley had a multitude of hits on his roster that became
synonymous with both his voice and his name, and firmly ensconced
somewhere at the top of that list would have to be his heartfelt
delivery of "Blue Christmas." On this Christmas collection of the
same name, Presley's gospel influence, as well as his role as a
swoon machine, dictate the material. Songs like the title track and
"I'll Be Home for Christmas" might not have the same impact now as
they did in the days of life during wartime, but Presley's voice
can still elicit an ache or two with its delivery. Despite the fact
that some viewed him as a sexual threat, there was often an
innocence in his songs. That innocence shows nicely in "Winter
Wonderland," while "O Come All Ye Faithful" is Elvis at his holiday
best. Blue Christmas is probably the best of Presley's offerings of
the season. --Steve Gdula
