Elvis Presley – For LP Fans Only
Originally released in 1959, For LP Fans Only gathers some of Elvis Presley’s most important early recordings from the years 1954–1956. The album was assembled while Elvis was serving in the US Army and brought together songs that had previously appeared mainly on singles and EPs rather than on a full-length LP. (Wikipedia)
The collection reaches back to the raw, revolutionary sound of Elvis’ Sun Records period and includes early rock-and-roll and rockabilly classics such as “That’s All Right,” “Mystery Train,” “My Baby Left Me,” “Lawdy, Miss Clawdy”and “Shake, Rattle and Roll.” Backed by musicians including Scotty Moore, Bill Black and D.J. Fontana, these performances capture the youthful energy and musical chemistry that helped transform popular music during the 1950s. (Wikipedia)
Rather than functioning as a conventional greatest-hits collection, For LP Fans Only focuses on recordings that were harder to find on album at the time. This gives it the character of a carefully selected archive of Elvis’ formative years, moving between rockabilly, rhythm and blues, country and early rock and roll.
This copy is a German stereo reissue on RCA Victor, carrying catalogue numbers LSP 1990 and 26.21012. The edition contains the original ten-track programme and preserves one of the most distinctive Elvis album covers of the period.
