This album compiles 7" singles released on the Sympathy for the Record Industry label in the early 1990s.
How Great Thou Art features strong but stripped-down production, a crack band, and a number of ace rewrites of songs made famous by
Elvis. The album contains a wide range of moods, from the loopy "Maria's the Name (of His Latest Flame)," which uses as its musical foundation
Bow Wow Wow's version of "I Want Candy." "In el Barrio" is a serious rewrite of
Presley's "In the Ghetto." ~ Kembrew McLeod
