WHAT can you write that hasn't already been written about the King. I'm talking about Elvis Aaron Presley, and as you may have seen on the recent BT ads on the telly, his music, expecially the poignant Always on My Mind, never loses its magic.

This new CD, billed as the Ultimate Love Songs Collection, showcases the King's larynx in its loveliest light.

Evergreens include Suspicious Minds, Are You Lonesome Tonight?, It's Now or Never, Love Me Tender and You Don't Have to Say You Love Me. I was too young to appreciate the mean and moody one's work the first time around, but the ageing process helps you to realise just what a voice the man had. Essential for all Elvis fans.AB
