These very good studio tracks were included as fillers for Elvis' latest formula movie soundtrack LP, "Clambake" (RD 7917). This was not the first and certainly won't be the last time that the powers that be, don't always make the most "creative" choice when it comes to song selections and where they might fit.
Another great quality song like "It Hurts Me" was banished to be a B-side to the far inferior "Kissin' Cousins".
