They sound like they mean it!
author: Fredrik Bergström
Personally I am very tired of Elvis covers but with this fat Afro Choir in his back Mr. Wennman pulls it off and this is a record even hardcore Elvisfans will accept.Production is very nice and they sound like they really mean it. And thank God, Jailhouse rock is not included.

It's not about imitation, it's about love!
author: Bengt Eriksson/Rootsy Music
I had the two first minialbums by Orange. They have such personal interpretations! Now Orange is here with their third minialbum with songs associated with the King. This time with more gospel flavour. Afro Choir is there to provide gospel feeling. What makes this album so good is that it is not about imitation. It is about love. Singer Kent Wennman sings like himself but with personality and feeling. For the most it's very good.

What a nice surprise!

The CD is a very nice surprise and once again Orange has succeded in giving Elvis new life. I've been listening to it over and over again. Best quality on both sound, performance and song selection.

Elvis songs treated with respect!
author: Lennart Götesson/Dalademokraten
Orange from Uppsala continue to make Elvis songs their own way. The CD starts with a magnificent version of Shake a hand. Plenty of blues and soul and the amazing Afro choir adds a lot to the sound. Orange add a new dimension to songs like Always on my mind and So high. and they treat Elvis with a lot of respect. Buy this record if you want to hear well-known Elvis songs in a new way.
