No, Elvis is not still alive and sneaking into studios. Continuing with the successful trend, Legacy has brought together vintage recordings, this time of Elvis in a Christmas mood and supplemented classic sessions with rich orchestrations. Swivel hip deliveries of “Blue Christmas,” “Merry Christmas Baby” and “Santa Bring My Baby Back (To Me)” are given extra textures with clever string harmonies. More reverent tunes such as “O Come All Ye Faithful” and “Silver Bells” increase the nostalgia with egg nog richness. Even if you have the originals, this one’s a treat.
