Flaming Star - Soundtrack

TRACKS (songwriter):

• Flaming Star - (Sid Wayne & Sherman Edwards)
• A Cane and a High Starched Collar - (Sid Tepper & Roy C. Bennett)

The soundtrack was not released as a music album as the film contains only two songs; only "Flaming Star" was released on an EP to coincide with the film's release. Two other songs, "Britches" and "Summer Kisses, Winter Tears", were originally scheduled to be part of the movie but in the end were not included. "Summer Kisses" would appear on the compilation album Elvis for Everyone a year or so later, while "Britches" and "Cane and a High Starched Collar" would not be released until after Presley's death. An early version of "Flaming Star", using the film's working title, "Black Star", was also recorded and not released until the 1990s.

• Elvis Presley (vocals)
• The Jordanaires (background vocals)
• Howard Roberts, Tiny Timbrell (guitars)
• Myer Rubin, (bass)
• Bernie Mattinson, Buddy Harman, (drums)
• Jimmie Haskell (accordian)
