Description
"How Great Thou Art"/"So High" SP-45-162 1967 U.S. RCA Air-Play Special 45 w/Picture Sleeve RARE!
This single was issued to DJs only with the same artwork on the front as that used for the "How Great Thou Art" album but in black & white instead of color. The back of the sleeve is white with black print containing the titles, publishing info, times & "For Radio Stations Only" written across the top. "How Great Thou Art" had long been one of Elvis' favorite hymns & his rendition proved to be a powerful recording & later a featured song in his live act. "So High" was an up-tempo spiritual originally popularized by the Harmonizing Four. The black vinyl record is in MINT, seldom played condition. It has the super rare white RCA Victor "Air-Play Special" labels that were sent to DJs. The sleeve is in VG- condition- the front has slight ring wear, a brown stain near the steeple of the church & a date hastily written in ink (not too obtrusive, though), the back also has the date & radio station call letters similarly written. This original single was pressed in limited quantities in 1967 & is now very hard to find. Overall condition VG-/M.
