On June 5th,
2007, SONY BMG Music Entertainment released “Elvis At The Movies” – the
most comprehensive Elvis Presley 2 CD movie package ever produced. The
double-disc, 40-song collection features some of the popular tunes from
Elvis Presley's remarkable run of 31 Hollywood movies, including
show-stopping numbers like "What I'd Say" from Viva Las Vegas and
"Rock-A-Hula Baby" from perennial fan-favorite Blue Hawaii. Also
included are the #1 hits "Love Me Tender" and "Jailhouse Rock" plus 17
more Top 40 singles and classic contributions from legendary songwriters
Jerry Leiber & Mike Stoller, Doc Pomus & Mort Shuman, and Otis
Blackwell.
Though much has
been made of the notion that Elvis's success as a matinee idol put the
last nail in the coffin of his rock-&-roll rebel status, ELVIS AT
THE MOVIES threatens to put the lie to that theory. Listening to this
collection of tunes that sprang from the King's films, it's striking to
realize how many of his most popular tracks had a big-screen background.
The quintessential Elvis ballad "Love Me Tender," the Big House
barnstormer "Jailhouse Rock," the kitsch classic "Viva Las Vegas"--they
all made their home in the cinema.
Of course, this 40-track compendium is dominated by more obscure tunes.
The casual Elvis admirer isn't likely to be familiar with the
bongo-driven beach-pop of "Do the Clam" or "Charro," which combines
spaghetti-western sounds with psychedelic-cowboy lyrics about "standing
alone at the crossroads of your mind." At the same time, esoteric
soul-tinged cuts like "Clean Up Your Own Backyard" illuminate an
underexposed corner of the Elvis catalog, making ELVIS AT THE MOVIES all
the more valuable. |
