The second of two albums assembled by the Country
Music Foundation's Jay Orr (the other is Elvis in Nashville), Elvis
Gospel 1957-1971: Known Only to Him was a 14-track compilation
culled largely from Presley's inspirational records, the 1957 EP
Peace in the Valley and the albums His Hand in Mine (1960), How
Great Thou Art (1967), and He Touched Me (1972). The music is
consistently effective, confirming Presley's affection for gospel. (AllMusic
