Info for Elvis Sings Leiber and Stoller (Remastered)

„The British arm of RCA made a habit of outdoing the home office in compiling Elvis Presley recordings, and this one was no exception. Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, the stand-out rock & roll songwriting team of the late '50s and early '60s, began working with Presley after his cover of their "Hound Dog," originally written for Big Mama Thornton, became a big hit. The duo's primary assignments were the songs for the films Jailhouse Rock and Kid Creole, though their efforts also turned up in other Presley vehicles. There were enough of them to fill an LP, and RCA U.K. got an unusually cohesive Presley album by pulling together material recorded between 1956 and 1968.“ (William Ruhlmann, AMG)

For the record, Elvis recorded 13 other Leiber-Stoller compositions that did not make this top 10 list. They were: “Dirty, Dirty Feeling;” “Fools Fall in Love;” “Girls! Girls! Girls!” “Hot Dog;” “I Want to Be Free;” “If You Don’t Come Back;” “Just Tell Her Jim Said Hello;” “Little Egypt;” “Love Me;” “Saved;” “She’s Not You” (with Doc Pomus); “Steadfast, Loyal, and True;” and “Three Corn Patches.”

“That was a great avenue, to be working with the automatic hitmaker of all time,” Jerry Leiber said in a 1990 Rolling Stone interview. Elvis Presley reportedly felt the same about R&B’s greatest writing team. Who knows how much greater the Presley-Leiber-Stoller connection could have been had not Presley’s manager come between them? When Colonel Parker thought the two song writers were getting too close to his boy, he sent them the following warning. “If you two jerks don’t mind your own business and stay away from the business of Elvis Presley, I’m going to put you both out of business.” (Alan Hanson)
