Blue Hawaii, like G I Blues the previous year was a huge box office and soundtrack success. This album was a huge No.1 on both sides of the Atlantic. As romantic, comedy, musicals both films have poppy rather than rock 'n' roll soundtracks, but both are a very enjoyable listen.
The Hawaiian sound is a feature of this particular soundtrack.
The big song on the film is "Can't Help Falling In Love". "No More" is an Italian style mid-temp ballad that Elvis had so much success with at the time. This example does have the slight Hawaiian sound applied. Other enjoyable songs include "Rock A Hula Baby", which is rock 'n' roll done pop style. "Slicin' Sand" is a song in similar style but more tongue in cheek. There are a lot of great Hawaiian ballads, "Ku-U-I-Po", "Moonlight Swim" and of course "Hawaiian Wedding Song". I've always liked the comic blues in "Beach Boy Blues".
To truly appreciate this as an album you do have to consider the film context, which was and is a hugely entertaining family film.
This edition features a song that was intended for the film but not used "Steppin' Out Of Line", possibly because it is a bit more raucous than the other songs. I had not heard this before or have it elsewhere in my collection, which for me is practically a miracle.

Excellent soundtrack
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 April 2022Verified Purchase
I bought this as a gift for an older friend, who told me she’d owned it on vinyl and worn the record out back in the day. She was very pleased and surprised when I presented it to her. The sound quality was very good. Blue Hawaii and Can’t Help Falling In Love are two stand out tracks but it is a good soundtrack album from start to finish. The King had a great voice.

The "King" of Rock and Roll
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 January 2014Verified Purchase
I offered to buy my wife the new Elvis Favourites Album for Christmas, she said no because she had all the tracks on compilations anyway, as she's in her sixties I though why not get her four favourite Albums on CD.
So I bought "G.I. Blues", Blue Hawaii", "King Creole" and "Elvis is Back". She loves them, she's not one for going over the top but she says that these are excellent.
So if you want to hear the "King" properly" you can't go wrong with one of these.
