Elvis Presley
Loving You (Original Soundtrack)
Album · Soundtrack · 1957
Elvis' first starring movie lets him rock out on some of the finest songs of his early career. Accompanied by guitarist Scotty Moore and the Jordanaires, he sounds thoroughly jazzed up in "Mean Woman Blues", "Hot Dog", "(Let's Have A) Party" and especially "Got a Lot O' Livin' To Do!". The studio add-ons, like "Don't Leave Me Now" and "Tell Me Why", are ballads that find Elvis in melodramatic, affected and occasionally self-mocking form.
