Notes
Singer Presents Elvis Singing Flaming Star and Others is the thirty-third album by Elvis Presley, released on RCA Records in stereo, PRS 279, in October 1968. It spent five months available only at select retail stores featuring products by the Singer Sewing Machine Company as a promotional tie-in with Presley's upcoming Christmas television special on the NBC network, which Singer had sponsored. It was reissued for normal retail channels as Elvis Sings Flaming Star in March 1969, becoming the first Elvis Presley budget album on the RCA Camden subsidiary label, catalogue CAS 2304. The 1969 release peaked at #96 on the Billboard 200 album chart. It was certified Gold on 7/15/1999 and Platinum on 1/6/2004 by the R.I.A.A.
All tracks were compiled from sessions for Presley film soundtracks, with the exception of "Tiger Man" from the Singer Christmas Special. The cover of Chuck Berry's "Too Much Monkey Business" was a warm-up at a session for film songs to Stay Away, Joe. Excepting "Flaming Star," the title song from Presley's 1960 movie of the same title which had been released on the Elvis by Request extended play single in February 1961, all tracks were previously unreleased.
The "Texas" medley and "All I Needed Was the Rain" appeared in their respective films, and "Wonderful World" appeared over the opening credits to Live A Litte, Love A Little, as did "Flaming Star." in its film. The live performance of "Tiger Man" was held off the initial broadcast of the NBC television special. but replaced the segment with "Blue Christmas" for the repeat broadcast of the special in the summer of 1969. This track has the distinction of being the first live recording by Elvis ever commercially released. The remaining songs were not actually used in their respective films.
Due to the success of this album in making the charts upon reissue in 1969, RCA elected to continue with Presley product on the Camden label through 1972, LPs containing less than the standard running time, with unused soundtrack recordings and reshuffled previously released items. It was reissued in 1975 by Pickwick Records, and again for compact disc by Sony Music Entertainment in 2006.
