Dedicated to the King!! ranks atop the series of tribute LPs Chuck Jackson cut for Wand during the mid-'60s — a soulful and respectful tribute to the music of Elvis Presley, it wisely avoids the schmaltz Presley recorded upon going Hollywood in favor of the perennially vital rock & roll classics he cut at the outset of his career. Jackson sheds his trademark uptown sophistication to get down and dirty on these ten tracks, instilling pop classics like "Heartbreak Hotel," "Jailhouse Rock," and "Hound Dog" with surprising grit and potency. Best of all is his poignant reading of "Crying in the Chapel," borrowed by Presley from R&B legends the Orioles.
