Elvis Presley releases soundtrack to upcoming movie

The events we write about at Gaslight Records happened in some form or another 50 years ago to the day. Roll along with us and imagine you are back in 1974.

Support Gaslight Records

In June 1965, Elvis Presley released an EP entitled Tickle Me, which featured 5 songs from his upcoming movie of the same name. For the first time in his career, the budget for the movie hadn't allowed new songs to be written, so all the songs had to be selected from previously released Presley albums.

Here is the full track listing for the EP:

01 I Feel That I've Known You Forever

02 Slowly But Surely

Side two

03 Night Rider

04 Put the Blame On Me

05 Dirty, Dirty Feeling

Below is a track from the EP called "I Feel That I've Known You Forever."
