Presentazione:
Questo album riunisce due cantautori, entrambi pianisti, che hanno dato un notevole contributo al lavoro ed alla carriera del Re. Mentre Otis Blackwell eccelleva nel rock 'n' roll, di cui fu uno dei grandi artigiani (fornendo ad Elvis non meno di tre successi in vetta alle classifiche), Don Robertson, d'altro canto, era un maestro nell'arte della ballata (molte delle sue composizioni appariranno sui lati B di singoli di successo).
Due artisti eccezionali che meritano un posto nel Pantheon della Musica.
