Jailhouse Rock (EP)
''Jailhouse Rock'' is an extended-play, seven-inch 45 RPM record released on RCA Records, catalogue EPA 4114, during November 1957. Recording sessions took place at Radio Recorders in Hollywood on April 30 and May 3, 1957, with an additional session at the MGM Soundstage in Hollywood on May 9 for "Don't Leave Me Now".〔Jorgensen, Ernst. ''Elvis Presley a Life in Music: The Complete Recording Sessions''. New York: St. Martin's Press, 1998; pp. 89-90.〕 It peaked at #1 on the newly inaugurated ''Billboard'' EP chart.

Unlike ''Loving You'' (1957) but like ''Love Me Tender'' (1956), a full long-playing album soundtrack was not devised for ''Jailhouse Rock''. The title song "Jailhouse Rock" had already been released as a single on September 24, 1957, and went to #1 on the singles chart. The sixth soundtrack song "Treat Me Nice" was not included on the EP, a new recording from September 5 at Radio Recorders instead placed as the B-side to the "Jailhouse Rock" single where it peaked at #18 on the singles chart independently. The writing and production team of Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller played prominent roles in the making of the soundtrack, writing four of its songs and working with Presley closely in the studio.〔Jorgensen, op. cit., pp. 90-92〕 Other than both sides of the single and "I Want to Be Free", the fourth song by the pair "(You're So Square) Baby I Don't Care" became a minor standard, receiving cover versions by Buddy Holly, Cliff Richard, Joni Mitchell, and Brian Setzer.
"Don't Leave Me Now" had also appeared on the ''Loving You'' (1957) album, but in a different version from an earlier set of recording sessions. Additional original music for the film was composed by producer Jeff Alexander, and the song sang by the Hunk Houghton character, "One Day", was by Roy C. Bennett and Sid Tepper.
The songs from the EP are available on the 1950s box set from 1992. On April 15, 1997, RCA released a compact disc comprising versions appearing in the feature film and versions that had been commercially released on records of the songs from both ''Jailhouse Rock'' and his first movie, ''Love Me Tender''. Three tracks were previously unreleased alternate takes, along with two newly mixed stereo versions of "Love Me Tender" and "Poor Boy".
