Priscilla (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) is available on all streaming
digital platforms November 3 in conjunction with the US release of the latest
feature film written and directed by Sofia Coppola. Starring Cailee Spaeny in
the title role and Jacob Elordi as Elvis Presley, the film is based on Priscilla
Presley’s bestselling memoir Elvis and Me. Priscilla is released in US
cinemas today via A24 and select international territories via MUBI, including
in the UK on December 26th.

When teenage Priscilla Beaulieu meets Elvis Presley at a party, the man who is
already a meteoric rock-and-roll superstar becomes someone entirely unexpected
in private moments: a thrilling crush, an ally in loneliness, a vulnerable best
friend. Through Priscilla’s eyes, Sofia Coppola tells the unseen side of
a great American myth in Elvis and Priscilla’s long courtship and
turbulent marriage, from a German army base to his dream-world estate at
Graceland, in this deeply felt and ravishingly detailed portrait of love,
fantasy, and fame. Priscilla music supervision is by Phoenix and Randall Poster
who have created an eclectic soundtrack that is both a reflection of the times
chronicled in the film and underscores the personalities who portray the most
famous married couple in 20th century American history.

Two #1 hits from the era of the Presleys courtship and marriage,
“Venus” by Frankie Avalon and “Crimson and Clover” by
Tommy James and the Shondells, are part of the Priscilla soundtrack.
“Venus” spent five weeks atop Billboard’s Hot 100 chart in
1959 while “Crimson and Clover” topped that same chart almost
exactly ten years later. “Sweet Nothin’s,” the 1959 Brenda
Lee smash hit in both the US and Great Britain, is also featured in the
Priscilla album. Somewhat more contemporary, though representing an earlier era,
is the Ramones version of “Baby, I Love You.” The song was written
by Jeff Barry, Ellie Greenwich and Phil Spector originally for the Ronettes; the
Ramones cover, also a Spector production, went on to be the band’s
biggest UK hit in 1980. The Righteous Brothers version of “(I Love You)
for Sentimental Reasons,” also produced by Spector, is included as is
“Forever,” the recording by The Little Dippers (a pseudonym for the
Anita Kerr Singers). The latter was a top 10 single in 1960. Speedy West, the
LA-based pedal steel player, who was a session man of great renown, is heard on
“Rippling Waters” while The Orlons’ recording of
“Goin’ Places,” a Bob Crewe production, is also part of the
Priscilla collection.

The 17-track set includes “Wade In the Water” by The Soul Stirrers,
co-written and produced Sam Cooke, whose gospel career flourished when he joined
the famed group. After he pursued secular music, he produced later recordings by
the Soul Stirrers with Paul Foster serving as lead singer as heard on the album.
“Nobody Knows” by Pastor T.L. Barrett & the Youth Christ Choir
reprises The Soul Stirrers’ gospel spirit on the Priscilla soundtrack.

“Going Home” adapted from the second movement of Dvorak’s
Symphony No. 9 in D by legendary jazz innovator Alice Coltrane, backed by
Charlie Haden and Ben Riley, leads off the Priscilla set and dates from her 1973
album Lord of Lords.

“The Crystal Cat” by electronic composer/performer Dan Deacon is
part of Priscilla. His music has been heard on the soundtracks to such recent
films as All Light, Everywhere, Ascension and Twixt. Composer, performer, and
producer Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, who works primarily with the Buchla 100
synthesizer, is heard on “Stratus” while percussionist and jazz
vibraphonist Erik Charlston’s take on Orff Schulwerk’s
“Gassenhaurer” is included. Spectrum’s “How You Satisfy
Me” continues in that modernist vein. Porches, the New York-based music
project masterminded by Aaron Maine, contributes “Country,” which
originally appeared on their 2018 album The House. The soundtrack closes with an
instrumental orchestral cover by Sons Of Raphael of Phoenix’s song
“My Elixir” which was recorded specifically for Priscilla.
