This new collection follows the pattern of last year's chart-topping If I Can Dream, grafting vintage Elvis Presley vocals to newly recorded orchestral settings. Produced by the same team of Don Reedman and Nick Patrick, with the Royal Philharmonic recorded at Abbey Road Studios, The Wonder of You features 15 songs from several of Elvis' preferred genres from country to gospel to rock all in new arrangements. It spans nearly all of Presley's career from 1958 to 1973 and contains big hits such as "Suspicious Minds" and "Kentucky Rain" alongside some more slightly obscure tracks like "Memories" and "Just Pretend" (featured here as a duet with Russian singer Helene Fischer).
