AUGUST 6.1955......223...MYSTERY TRAIN/I FORGOT TO REMEMBER TO FORGET HER.

DEADWAX DETAILS # 45-U-156X / 45-U-157X ALSO #20 PLEASE NOTE THIS RELEASE HAD NO PUSH MARKS.

CONDITION.RECORD IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION,LAYS TRUE FLAT.

IT APPEARS THE "MYSTERY TRAIN" SIDE'S LABEL WAS INITINALLY MISPRESSED AND NEARLY COMPLETELY REMOVED BEFORE THE CORRECT LABEL WAS PRESSED ON. THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH SUN RELEASE'S DUE TO EXCESSIVE DEMAND.

ELVIS' FINAL SUN RELEASE WAS HIS MOST SUCCESSFUL, A DOUBLE-SIDED CLASSIC."MYSTERY TRAIN" GENERALLY GETS THE ACCOLADES TODAY, BUT IN 1955 "I FORGOT TO REMEMBER TO FORGET" BECAME THE KINGS FIRST #1 HIT-- ON THE BILLBOARD'S COUNTRY CHARTS -- WHILE "MYSTERY TRAIN" PEAKED AT #11

NOW THE BAD NEWS..THIS COPY SADLY COMES WITH A REPRODUCTION "SUNBURST SLEEVE"

.................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

PLEASE, PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME TO SPLIT THIS SET UP. ALSO, I DO NOT KNOW HOW THESE RECORDS PLAY AS I DO NOT HAVE THE CORRECT EQUIPMENT, THESE RARE AND HARD TO FIND RECORDS IN THIS CONDITION ARE NOW, REALLY,  FOR INVESTMENT, AND, FOR LOOKING AT.
