Not his best work

"This CD includes two of Elvis' movie soundtracks from 1965, Harum Scarum (aka Harem Holiday) and Girl Happy. While both soundtracks reached the top 10 on the US album charts and Girl Happy was certified GOLD, they are not particularly strong albums. This set is recommended only for avid Elvis fans."

Great sountracks

"elvis in the mid-sixties got a bad rap for supposedly putting out bad movies and bad songs. this is hardly the case though-with this soundtrack anyways. first we visit the harem holiday part of the soundtrack. this has some of the best songs ever this movie is set in iran back before the days of terrorism and stuff like that. this was a great tourist movie that showed the beauty of the country and the songs give the sound and style of there music. it was a real rocking set of songs. my favorites are the wisdom of the ages, shake that tamborine, hey little girl, and so close yet so far from paradaise. i give 2 thumbs up on the soundtrack and the movie it is family fun.



next is girl happy starring elvis presley and shelly frabres (from the tv show coach and the singer of johnny angel). this movie is great from start to finish and the songs are very good. puppet on a string, girl happy and wolf call are the highlights of this soundtrack and were international hits. i also give 2 thumbs up for the soundtrack and the movie. the movie is set up on spring break 1965 in florida it is a very funny film with lots of action and girls. as elvis sings in the title tune"every girl i see looks good to me , what a crazy odd way to be but i love a life with beautiful woman i'm girl happy" im saying buy the cd's and buy the movies. elvis is at his best in these movies and sountracks much better than viva las vegas where the songs werent that good and the plot stunk. people rave about that just because of ann -maragret which really aint fair. these movies are better and sound better and they are more fun for men and woman to watch."

Still a good cd
