The E-Z Country Programming series of LP's seems to have originated with RCA in the States, and they all seem to be promos: Discogs has US copies of Vols 1 & 3, but only the NZ copy of Vol. 2, which has the same pair of Presley tracks as Vol. 1! I imagine that the liner notes on Vol 2 were at least changed significantly to refer to HMV and New Zealand instead of RCA and USA, if not completely replaced.

Overseas releases in NZ before Australia? Hadn't heard of that before, but I suppose it was possible if the ship carrying the masters (and I think it's more likely to have been ship rather than plane) stopped off in Wellington (where HMV was) and/or Auckland before hitting Oz.
