Elvis took Elizabeth on a motorcycle ride to show her Memphis.

Song of the day

Hey, Hey, Hey

A "throw away", "wanna be" rock and roll number from the movie and album "Clambake" (1967). Luckily this was the last song on side A of the original album, so you could just eject the record before it played. The recording sounds like it took place under water and Elvis sounds bored singing the song, and it isn't much of a song. When this album was released in late 67, Elvis had started to make relevant music again. Five high quality non-soundtrack songs found their way onto this album ("Big Boss Man", "Guitar Man", "Just Call Me Lonesome", "You Don't Know Me" {not the move version} and "Singing Tree") and most of the soundtrack material is at least reasonable. "Hey, Hey, Hey" is by far the worst track on this album and ranks with about a dozen songs as one star songs (most of the "Harum Scarum" and "Paradise, Hawaiian Style" soundtracks and "Barefoot Ballad" from "Kissin Cousins" comes to mind).
