Il set da 5 CD "Elvis: The Pot Luck Sessions" viene presentato come segue:
Non c'è dubbio che le canzoni piazzate da Freddy Bienstock per la Hill & Range siano state un successo.
Successi superbamente realizzati come "Little Sister", (Marie's The Name) His Latest Flame", "Good Luck Charm" e She's Not You" hanno dominato le classifiche POP di tutto il mondo nei primi anni '60 e le impeccabili esecuzioni di Elvis, accompagnato dai migliori musicisti di Nashville, risuonano ancora oggi circa 60 anni dopo.
Se "Easy Question", "Suspicion", "I'm Yours" e "Kiss Me Quick" fossero stati pubblicati come singoli su 45 giri durante questo periodo fertile, e non anni dopo, senza dubbio ognuno avrebbe potuto eguagliare il successo in classifica degli altri.
Questo set da 5 CD, completamente rimasterizzato, è accompagnato da un libretto di 28 pagine in cui si trovano informazioni, fotografie rare, memorabilia e molto altro.
