Presley insisted the mono mixes for these songs were retained for the album. By making it to the top ten on the album chart after his previous album had charted at a dismal #82, this LP resuscitated his recording career at a time when it seemed practically moribund. 'Memories' was released over two months after the broadcast, backed with the title song to his next film, Charro!. It peaked at #12 on the Billboard Hot 100, his highest charting single since 1965.

For the album, the musical format presented Presley in three different settings: production numbers featuring medleys of his material an informal small band featuring full songs in front of a live audience and the two original numbers with Presley backed by an orchestra in front of a live audience. Unlike the drudgery of the feature film soundtrack recordings, Presley was genuinely excited by the project. The soundtrack album to the Elvis special is the audio-only version of the special, and consists of a mixture of studio and live recordings, the live material itself a mixture of 'sit-down' tracks with a small group and 'stand-up' tracks with an orchestra. It was certified Gold on Jand Platinum on Jby the RIAA. Recording sessions took place in Burbank, California at Western Recorders on June 20, 21, 22 and 23, 1968, and at NBC Studios (Burbank) on June 27 and 29, 1968.
