More than a Guilty Pleasure Jul 16, 2009 I expected listening to this CD to be similar to reading Playboy, slightly entertaining but something to put out of sight when parents and friends come over. I was wrong. This is a first rate work.
It is not "authentic hawain music", but who cares? It is entertaining, the songs are good, and Elvis turns in good performances. Blue Hawaii, Can't Help Falling in Love with you, and Rock-a-Hula baby are great songs worth repeated listening. Ito Eats is enough fun to rise above its throw away status. Several other songs have at least some staying power.
I am taking away 1 star because there are several weaker songs that you can do without. However, at the time it was accepted practice to get 2 hits on an album and fill out the rest of the album with whatever dreck you could find. It is hard to slam Elvis for following that practice.
This is not the southern ground breaking, hip shaking, fusion of rock/r&b/gospel Elvis. But it shows a maturing performer, turning in a decent set and having fun with the rest. In this over thought/all performance are political world, take a break. Pour yourself a frou-frou drink and have some fun with this CD.

Inadequate packaging Jun 26, 2009 When I received this CD it came in a plain envelope with no cushion of any kind. The case was cracked, looked like someone stepped on it. The CD itself was in perfect condition but I think the least that could have been used was a padded envelope.I ordered another CD with the exact same shipping charge from another person and it came in a small box with styrofoam peanuts. The case and CD were in perfect condition.

Blue Hawaii CD Jun 13, 2008 CD arrived when promised. Overall, it was in OK condition although there were scratches on one song and that was unfortunately the one song I needed to be scratch free. I know I ordered a used CD, but I don't recall the description mentioning any scratches.

BEAUTIFUL SONGS! Apr 15, 2008 I RECENTLY MARRIED AND MY HUSBAND AND I WANTED "THE HAWAIIAN WEDDING SONG" SUNG AT OUR WEDDING. ELVIS PRESLEY'S VERSION OF THE SONG WAS PERFECT! IT WAS BEAUTIFUL AND TOUCHING. THE SONG TOWARDS THE END OF THE CEREMONY MADE OUR WEDDING EVEN MORE MEMORABLE. IN ADDITION, THE OTHER SONGS WERE GREAT, TOO, AND WE ENJOY LISTENING TO THE CD FREQUENTLY.
