"This CD pairs up two of Elvis' movie soundtracks from 1966, Frankie And Johnny and Paradise, Hawaiian Style. Both original soundtrack albums were modest hits in the US reaching 20 and 15 on the album charts respectively. Paradise, Hawaiian Style was an attempt to recapture some of the success of 1961's Blue Hawaii, which was Elvis' all-time biggest hit album. If they had done it a few years earlier, perhaps it would have worked, but as it was too much time had passed and it was nowhere near the success. This CD includes two songs that were modest hits in 1966, Frankie And Johnny (which peaked at 25 on the US singles chart) and its flip-side Please Don't Stop Loving Me (which hit 45). This is recommended only for avid Elvis fans."
