In early 2006, RCA/Sony released three Elvis Presley compilations, each one focusing on a different aspect of the King's catalog. This installment, featuring tracks recorded between 1960 and '76, finds Presley, as the title would suggest, in an inspirational mode. While not expressly gospel, the collection stills offers up songs of hope and faith. Elvis ably takes on classics such as "Amazing Grace" and "Danny Boy," and also shines on more contemporary tunes such as Neil Diamond's gentle "And the Grass Won't Pay No Mind" and Simon & Garfunkel's "Bridge Over Troubled Water," which soars to a thundering finale. An uplifting set that presents Presley in his bold, latter-day voice, ELVIS: INSPIRATIONAL lives up to the grandeur that one would expect from such a collection.
