"If you don't consider the movie & gospel albums as concept albums, this is the first concept album of Elvis. A very wide variety of country songs done perfectly. This is his best album of the seventies." Reply

"A synth pop opera of emotional shipwrecks!!!" Reply
"I don't quite agree with benjameen that the songs all sound the same. Alive is a great summer pop song, but the entire album is chalk full of songs that aren't just "party tracks."
