• Girls! Girls! Girls!
  Nov 20, 1962

  Girls! Girls! Girls! is a 1962 musical comedy film starring Elvis Presley as a penniless fisherman who loves his life on the sea and dreams of owning his own boat. The film was shot on location in Hawaii. Co-star Stella Stevens has gone on record as stating that she hated making the film, claiming Elvis was distant and drunk during filming. Many of Elvis's close friends and family have denied this allegation, primarily as Elvis was almost tee-total during his life time, though he did admit that he did not care much for his co-star. The soundtrack songs were recorded in March of 1962 at the Radio Recorders Studios in Hollywood, California with the songs "Where Do You Come From" and "I Don't Want To" added to the music album released to coincide with the film's debut.
