In 1957, Elvis Presley had not yet gone into the Army. He had appeared in the film Love Me Tender in a supporting role the year before. But Loving You was his first starring role, and this was also his first full soundtrack album. The first of seventeen, all released between 1957 and 1968 (Speedway). Presley’s films were rarely much above vehicles to sell more records, a tactic that worked well for a decade. The end of his film career marked the beginning of his Vegas performer years, which lasted until his death in 1977. The original album contained twelve tracks, seven from the film and five non soundtrack songs. It ran just 26 minutes, and most of the songs, while well produced, were pretty forgettable. That was okay…that album had a pair of hits, which made it a success.
The hits here are “(Let Me Be Your) Teddy Bear” and “Loving You”. Both were substantial enough to make the album and the film big. Elvis was in fine voice, but the material was, overall, below what his previous work had been. When it was re-released on CD in 1995, Loving You contained an additional eight songs. Only three of those were previously unreleased, but all were recorded around the same time as the original album. Loving You marked the beginning of a long stretch of soundtracks for films that were iffy at best, supported by albums with a sizeable hit and a bunch of other forgettable songs. It wasn’t put together with any kind of cohesive thought: the final five were added only to make it long enough. But it was 1957, and he was still the king. Not great, but better than you might think. [First added to this chart: 06/17/2025]
