Comments and Reviews


Redpunk SUBS 27th Jul 2024		Added J/T label scans.



Madame Streggae ● 27th Oct 2023		My copy is as per images 463720/463721 and has the gatefold sleeve and 8 page booklet. So, contrary to what Sladesounds seems to say in his post of 10/10/13, this pressing did come with the 8 (not 4 surely?) page booklet. Mind you, the label looks to me to be more of a dark orange than red. It's quite an unusual thing as it has the stamp of what appears to be a previous owner in Famagusta, although whether it was bought there or taken there is a moot point. The pages were loose but I've stuck them back in and I was quite pleased with it for a fiver (plays pretty decent too).



kab2112 SUBS 22nd May 2021		I also added the back cover of this issue



Strawberry_Lynn 22nd May 2021		Is illustration number 463718 uploaded by 'kab2112' and described as FRONT cover actually the REAR cover? I took this to mean that later issues had the cover picture updated Confusion rules supreme



Vinyl Fan ● 8th Sep 2020		Added 1964 label variation.



memphismartin 17th Oct 2017		@stoutfellow51: There is no doubt that this was one of the nicest UK Elvis albums based on the American Christmas Album regarding the booklet. It is a great example to show digital and cd collector's of one of the finer examples of vinyl. Some of the later Elvis box sets also come to mind.



stoutfellow51 15th Oct 2017		@memphis martin Thanks for the info. Both South Pacific and The Sound of Music were released on the Red Seal label in the UK and as you say it was most unusual for the label to be used for a non-soundtrack or classical release. One wonders whether the original gatefold sleeve release attracted a premium price tag when it came out.



memphismartin 14th Oct 2017		@stoutfellow51: This mono album is quite unique as it's the only Elvis album ever released using RCA's RED SEAL label. I think mostly soundtracks were normally used? The label you uploaded is a 1969 small red label that compares with the 1969 small orange versions. Because this has 'Red Seal' to the right of the spindle, the word 'Victor' that would normally be there was omitted. This red label was the last version released as RB 16069. The album would be re-issued with a completely different sleeve, catalogue number (SF 8129) and in horrendous 'electronic stereo' instead of mono within twelve months. memphismartin https://www.elvisukvinyl.co.uk/ email: memphismartin@elvisukvinyl.co.uk



memphismartin 14th Oct 2017		@Strawberry_Lynn: Hi, The image 537690: (SLEEVE NOTES on the right) is the inside of the rear of the gatefold album. The left image of 537690 is the last page of an 8 page booklet that was attached to the LP. Note: Image Number 463781 uploaded by kab2112 is the original back cover from this album. I previously uploaded a later re-issue of Golden Records that also had a booklet, but which only contained 4 photos. There was also other re-issues that came on a single sleeve and the SLEEVE NOTES are indeed the rear of these records. Hope that helps.. Please check out my Elvis Vinyl Site that has more details. https://www.elvisukvinyl.co.uk/ email: memphismartin@elvisukvinyl.co.uk



stoutfellow51 14th Oct 2017		I have asked admin. to consider changing the label from RCA Victor Red Seal to RCA Red Seal in line with the 1958 release. Also uploaded 1958 "RCA" rear sleeve.



Strawberry_Lynn 14th Jul 2017		@caseellerbroek: I'm very confused by Image No. 537690, "Inner page 4", the right side of which appears to be the rear of the sleeve. Did RCA use a different image for the back cover for this first pressing?



memphismartin 14th Sep 2016		RCA Releases generally followed this criteria: 1st label(s) RCA Logo (until 1962) 2nd labels(s) RCA Victor Logo (until 1964) 3rd Label(s) RCA Victor Red Dot Logo (until 1969) 4th Label(s) RCA Small Orange (until 1970) 5th Label(s) RCA Large Orange (through the seventies) Golden Records (RB 16069) differed: 1st Label(s) RCA Logo (Maroon Colour) (1958) 2nd Label(s) RCA Logo (Red Colour) (until 1963) 3rd Label(s) RCA Victor Logo (Red Colour) (until 1964) 4th Label(s) RCA Victor Black Dot Logo (Red Colour) (until 1969) 5th Label(s) RCA Small Red (1969)



memphismartin 5th Sep 2016		Hi Folks, Just took a couple of photos from one of my RB 16069 Red Seal albums. UK book has no mention of any variations with the E/T tax code. Possibly 1959 pressing? Also added some pics from the later 1960's re-issued booklet. Photos are in correct order. I also have the version with the incorrect order.



okun69 7th Jul 2016		I personally would say that you have the correct sleeve for the record you own stoutfellow51, I believe the mentioning of Red Seal on the front cover was dropped when moving to the single pocket sleeve. Never seen one with it mentioned. All of the RCA Elvis Presley albums had pressings on either the 1969 9cm diameter or 10cm diameter Orange label except for Loving You 10" LP (deleted in 1965 and re-packaged with a couple of singles tracks as Flaming Star & Summer Kisses), It Happened At The World's Fair, Fun In Acapulco, Kissin' Cousins, Frankie & Johnny and California Holiday



stoutfellow51 7th Jul 2016		Thanks for that okun69. My copy does indeed have a Red Seal 9cm diameter label, but do you think that it is in it's correct sleeve i.e. mid 60's non-gatefold of the same type as depicted by 78rpm maniac. The sleeve carries the boxed black RCA Victor logo and Cat. no. RB 16069, no mention of Red Seal anywhere on the sleeve. Several UK RCA Victor Elvis albums of the 1968/69 era seem to have been manufactured with the older black style label as well as the new orange style. Elvis Gold Records Vol 4 being one example. I have taken the liberty of listing my Red seal copy as a new entry on Discogs and I will take your advice about using 1969 as the release date. Note to self- must get out more !



okun69 7th Jul 2016		By the look of the photo that you've uploaded stoutfellow51 it looks as though it's a 1969 pressing, made just as RCA had introduced the Orange label. If it is a 1969 pressing, the diameter of the label should be 9cm. This quickly changed to the standard 10cm Orange label by the end of the year.



stoutfellow51 7th Jul 2016		Need a bit help here please. Just purchased a copy that I can't place anywhere including trawling through Discogs. Comes in a single RCA Victor mid 1960's sleeve identical to image 452016 from 78 rpm maniac with the same tracks as listed. The label is red in colour RCA Red Seal RB 16069 H2WP 8399 but the label text formatting is in the early 1970's RCA modern style that was introduced about 1968. It is a mono record manufactured in the UK and has a p 1958 annotation. Appears to be an early1970's record in a mid 1960's sleeve but the Cat.No. for this particular album post 1970 is RCA Victor SF 8129 on the Orange label with a totally different cover pic taken from the late 60's with Elvis in black leather. I have found an identical pic to upload as I can't do a scan of mine, ref 1099746. Any ideas?



caseellerbroek SUBS 30th Jul 2014		Added cover of the second (2-page booklet) issue of this LP. Also some pics from inside the 4-PAGE booklet 1st version. Didn't intend them to be so small, but I'm working on that.



gregs45s SUBS 1st Jun 2014		Gatefold sleeve variation added and record within,unsure of date,although the LP does have a KT tax code,which would suggest anywhere between 1st July 1963 - 22nd Nov 1966?.Front cover matches image 71889 exactly.I do not have the stapled 4 page booklet. Matrix side 1 (image 74765) = H2WP-8398-lA and CA and B1 and KT and HG (machine stamped). Matrix side 2 (image 74766) = H2WP-8399-lA and CA and 31 and KT and HU (machine stamped).



caseellerbroek SUBS 14th May 2014		With a nod to getalife, I've added a more complete 1st issue cover which has the title in light blue. I also have the 2nd issue which has the title in white. Not sure which one is pictured here.



caseellerbroek SUBS 3rd May 2014		Maroon labels added.



hiwatt1973 9th Mar 2014		Alternative labels added with Made in England. Also the Red Seal lettering is horizontal. The Matrix info is H2WP-8398-2A and H2WP-8399-2A



lorangrecords SUBS ● 27th Oct 2013		Changed the label to the excisting RCA V red seal



sladesounds 10th Oct 2013		1st pressing = Maroon silver spot label, gatefold sleeve with stapled 4 page booklet 2nd pressing = Red Seal silver spot label, gatefold sleeve with stapled 2 page booklet 3rd pressing = Red Seal, black spot label, gatefold sleeve no booklet 4th pressing = Red Seal, black spot label, single cover (not gatefold) no booklet. kab2112, looks like you have a 2nd pressing album in a 4th pressing sleeve



An6y66 2nd Oct 2013		variant images with different placement of the NCB boxes
