Although released before "Speedway", this film and its soundtrack were made after the first of Presley's last five films in the 1960s in which musical numbers were kept to a minimum. The recording session took place at RCA Studio B in Nashville on October 1, 1967. At the end of the session, Presley made his record producer Felton Jarvis promise to never release "Dominick," the song written for him to sing to the bull. However, the song is actually sung to two women in the movie without the bull present. "Dominick" would eventually make its first official CD appearance on the "Kissin Cousins"/"Clambake"/"Stay Away, Joe" soundtrack compilation in 1994 (long after the deaths of Presley and Jarvis); it had previously been released, unauthorized, as "Dominick the Impotent Bull" on the 1982 bootleg compilation "Elvis' Greatest Shit". The other two songs, "Stay Away, Joe" and "All I Needed Was the Rain," were not even featured on a promotional single for the film premiere, but instead respectively appeared on the budget albums "Let's Be Friends" in 1970 and "Elvis Sings Flaming Star" in 1969.
