Elvis famously made a long succession of movies, with each of them
having progressively worse soundtracks - or did they? I've challenged BLOG ARCHIVE
myself to find at least two half-decent songs from every movie (with ▼ 2009 (15)
the exception of 'Charro!' which only featured the title track over the
► December (1)
credits), & I discovered quite a few hidden gems. This post has also
given me the opportunity to feature photos of the many wonderful ► November (3)
posters used to promote the movies at the time (click on images to ▼ October (7)

Must have been quite a work to listen every Elvis movie
soundtrack... I've been big Elvis fan for over 20 years, but I
19. still have seen only about 10-15 of his 33 movies. About half a
year ago I bought a DVD of 'Easy Come Easy Go', but I've yet
watched about 15 minutes of it, it's so dead boring. But
there's also some very good movies, like 'King Creole'
and 'Flaming Star' and some of Elvis's mid-sixties have quite
good soundtrack music, like 'Harum Scarum', 'Spinout'
and 'Double Trouble'.
