As long as the 'public domein' law hasn't changed, everyone can release 50+ year old sound tracks. The Hoodoo label is no exception, and they combined "Blue Hawaii" and "King Creole" on this new budget release. All songs have been released countless times before, but at least they did a good job on the cover art work.
And Another Movie Sound Track

Strange action, to mix Elvis' best and worst movie... worst in the meaning the beginning of the end.

Have to say when this landed on my desk i too though 'Not another PD soudtrack' and of course KC and BH have had many,many outtings over the years so it is totally a non essential release, but have to say despite having a wrong cover for the album this release is far more than a copy and paste job,it has a very informative 16 page booklet with lots of info on KC and BH so does make a refreshing change to have this in a PD release. Also nice to have 'Danny' on this release although attached to the 'Bonus' tracks and not tagged on the bottom of KC, so for me nto a bad release for a PD issue but for the collector's market and nothing else.

Combines one of his hardest edge soundtracks with his softest & fluffiest soundtrack. Who was the marketing genius behind this? Yes I dont like 90% of Blue Hawaii at all, although his voice was great.

Too funny-hardest edge soundtrack and fluffiest! You are correct, it does take a genius! I might have married up GI Blues and Blue Hawaii, those two would fit together!

Really, not worth mentionning it here on ENews I'd say....Nobody will miss to buy such crap, really.
