I preffer "Rythmn & Country - Essential Elvis" better. I don't like the cover at all.

I just got my copy today. This FTD issue, without a doubt, is outstanding in every respect; even the cassette home recordings done at the Thompson household towards the end of the CD. The first 3 tracks are very similiar to the Elvis FTD Memphis Sessions, but once you get into the outtakes from 1973 and into 1976, this CD takes on a life of it's own. These songs or should I say arrangements, are so different and in my mind much better than the commercially released versions, such as Moody Blue and Elvis Rhythm and Country and yes, I do have the Jungle Sessions on FTD. This is one FTD everyone should get who can afford it. It's that good!
