The soundtrack of what was to be Elvis's biggest movie called for an Hawaiianesque flavor, and, while Presley's vocals are excellent throughout, much of the material is of a throwaway caliber. Of course, any session that produces "Can't Help Falling in Love" is memorable, but said sessions also gave us "Rock-A-Hula Baby," which was a worldwide hit despite being as dumb as the title implies! Within a matter of months, critical fans would look back at this album as a high point. [The 1997 CD reissue adds 14 bonus tracks.]

猫王埃尔维斯·普雷斯利可能是20世纪美国流行音乐中最重要的人物。他虽然不一定是最优秀的，但无可争议的是他使摇滚乐在世界范围的流行普及化。单从他的唱片销量上就可以看出，他的影响力是非凡的。从50年代中期到70年代中期这20年间，他的国际热门歌曲一打接一打，甚至在他去世之后他的任何再版唱片都能保持极其稳定的销量。毋庸置疑，他是流行音乐历史上唱片销量最高的艺人 。

This combines the four tracks from the Peace in the Valley EP with recordings of seasonal standards and popular Christmas classics (Elvis does outstanding versions of "Blue Christmas" and covers The Drifters' arrangement of "White Christmas"). But the album comes together with the lascivious "Santa Claus Is Back in Town," penned by Leiber And Stoller at the sessions so Elvis could have something original on the album. The definitive rock & roll Christmas album of the period, it stands with A Christmas Gift to You from Phil Spector as the very best of its genre.
