About The Record:

Speedway, by Elvis Presley, released in 1968, served as the soundtrack for his 27th film, a racing-themed musical comedy. The album features a mix of pop and rock tracks tailored to the movie’s narrative, with songs like Let Yourself Go and the title track Speedway standing out for their energetic delivery. Critically, the album is often seen as a product of Presley’s “movie years,” reflecting a period where his music was heavily tied to formulaic film projects, limiting his artistic range. Historically, Speedway marks one of the last soundtrack albums before Elvis’s 1968 comeback, signaling a shift toward more substantial work like the ’68 Comeback Special. While no major hit singles emerged, Let Yourself Go gained some attention, later resonating with fans for its rawer edge compared to other soundtrack cuts.
