The album features a scintillating duet with best-selling jazz-pop singer Michael Buble on "Fever." The album also includes additional contributions by Rock and Roll Hall of Fame guitarist Duane Eddy adding his signature sound to "An American Trilogy" and "Bridge Over Troubled Water," and Italian operatic pop trio Il Volo lending their outstanding vocals to "It's Now or Never." As arranger Nick Patrick said, "This is the record he would have loved to make." If I Can Dream also highlights Elvis Presley's diverse musical tastes and appreciation for great vocalists spanning a variety of genres from standards to opera.
If I Can Dream is part of the ongoing ELVIS 80th Birthday Celebration in 2015, which has been commemorated with a newly-redesigned website, www.ElvisTheMusic.com, the release of The Complete '60s Albums Collection Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 on iTunes (August 7), and the launch of "Direct From Graceland: Elvis at the O2," the largest Elvis retrospective ever mounted in Europe.

I generally don't like for anyone to mess with Elvis' music because I feel HE did it best but this album is out of this world! What's so phenomenal about it is that you can feel the spirit of Elvis. His vocals remain true to the layout of the original recordings while the musical arrangements and performance by the Royal Philharmonic Orchrestra compliment his extra-ordinary talent. The collaboration brings either a new excitement or soothing element to each performance sending the listener into an emotional whirlwind track by track. I can't help but think that Elvis is looking down from Heaven and very pleased! Let's hope and pray a Grammy is awarded for this fantastic compilation!

Tastefull selection of songs, reworked without forgetting who the real star is. This is the best "reissue" of Elvis material in years.
