Charro Elvis Presley movie 1969

'Charro!' was Elvis Presley's twenty-ninth movie. Sporting a beard and a tough demeanor, Elvis Presley stars as Jess Wade in Charro! an offbeat western that features no musical numbers. The minimal storyline finds Wade, a reformed badman, pitted against the members of his old gang. The gang is now led by Vince Hackett, played by character actor Victor French, who takes delight in terrorizing a small Mexican town. The gang has stolen from the town a gold-plated cannon that was used by Emperor Maximilian in his ill-fated fight against popular Mexican leader Benito Juarez. The gang's motive is to force a ransom from the town for the cannon, but the gang also uses the cannon to hold the townspeople at bay. Only Wade can save the people from his former gang. European star Ina Balin costars as Tracy Winters, a dance hall hostess in love with Wade. The song 'Charro!' was written by Billy Strange and Mac Davis and released as the B-side of the single 'Memories' from Elvis' 1968 TV special. Charro! was the only Elvis movie in which he did not sing. His singing voice is heard only over the credits performing the title song. 'Charro!' the song was recorded on October 15, 1968 at the Samuel Goldwyn Studio in Hollywood. The session was conducted by Hugo Montenegro, who was known for his work on the theme to another western movie, 'The Good, The Bad and The Ugly', starring Clint Eastwood.
