Burning Love and Hits from His Movies, Volume 2 is a compilation album by American singer and musician Elvis Presley. The album was released on November 1, 1972, on the budget label, RCA Camden. The contents of the album consist primarily of soundtrack recordings from various Presley films of the 1960s, augmented by both sides of his 1972 hit single, "Burning Love". RCA Records generally issued Presley's recordings on the standard Victor label, rather than the budget Camden label; a similar compilation album on RCA Camden, Separate Ways, was issued a month later, which also featured a recent chart hit leading a collection of older, non-hit soundtrack recordings.
Upon its release, the album reached number 22 on the Billboard pop album chart and number 10 on the Billboard country chart. In the mid-1970s, RCA Records leased the rights to reissue certain Camden recordings by Presley and other RCA recording artists to the budget reissue label Pickwick Records. Burning Love was reissued with the same cover art on the Pickwick label. After Presley's unexpected death in August, 1977, demand for his recordings increased dramatically; RCA sought to reclaim the rights to their Pickwick/Camden recordings, and reissued and repackaged several of them. RCA first reissued Burning Love on compact disc in 1987 as part of the "RCA Camden Classics" series. The album was certified Gold on March 27, 1992, Platinum on July 15, 1999, and 2× Platinum on January 6, 2004, by the RIAA.
