G.I. Blues is the soundtrack that welcomed Elvis Presley back from the Army, and this manufactured-on-demand CD edition brings back the 1960 album in all its sunny, smooth-edged charm.
After two years of military service, much of it in Germany, Elvis returned to a very different career. The film G.I. Blues cast him as a soldier stationed overseas, and its songs captured a slightly more grown-up, polished King, swapping some of the raw rock and roll of the fifties for sweet ballads, playful novelties and a fresh, clean studio sound.
Wooden Heart is the charmer of the set, a folk-tinged love song that slips into German and became one of his best-loved film numbers. The title track G.I. Blues is a jaunty, marching-band shuffle with a wry sense of humour. Elvis also revisits Blue Suede Shoes, giving the Carl Perkins classic a new spin, while Pocketful of Rainbows floats along with easy romance.
Shoppin' Around, Frankfort Special and Tonight Is So Right for Love round out a record full of breezy melodies and gentle swing.
For fans of Elvis on film, this is a cheerful, nostalgic listen and a fine reminder of his transition from rebel to all-round entertainer at the start of the sixties.
