Elvis Presley's first post-Army movie, G.I. Blues, was scored to music that the King had begun recording in April of 1960, immediately after his discharge from the service. He was in excellent voice -- even better than he had been before his induction two years before, in terms of his intonation and control -- and he still had one of the best bands in the business, including Scotty Moore on lead guitar and D.J. Fontana on drums. What he didn't have here was a first-rate score. There are some OK rock & roll songs present, including "Shoppin' Around," and a pair of good ballads -- "Doin' the Best I Can" and "Wooden Heart" -- the latter was co-authored by pop bandleader Bert Kaempfert, thus making him one of the few (and perhaps the only) musicians to cross paths creatively with Elvis and the Beatles during this period.
