Supposed to be Elvis' third original LP... or a soundtrack album, but as a whole it's neither. Seven cuts appearing in the movie coupled with five leftovers from an earlier session makes it more of a jumble. Not even close to his two earlier albums, but good enough for me. I love the fifties atmosphere, "Mean Woman Blues" is a killer, "True Love" cool romantics and there's some fine harmony singing with The Jordanaires. The recordings are simple and the audio terrific. It was fiftysix years ago, but today I get him better than ever before - there's nothing like a natural fifties recording played on good modern equipment. First Geman issue came on heavy vinyl, glossy "lined" label as shown here with "LONG PLAY" and thin fully laminated cover with top opening. (FÖGÄ*)(ÄWY*) (GÖXÄ*) (ZÖNT*)
