If you've never listened to one of these original 45 rpm pressings, you simply can't appreciate how extraordinary the sound is  the clarity and purity of the sound is astonishing. Be sure to include a listen to the wonderful B side, where Presley's vocals really rise to the heights of greatness. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage RCA Victor factory sleeve. It has Near Mint labels. The vinyl grades a strong EX, reflecting some light scuffing. The audio grades a strong EX as well, reflecting a touch of surface noise.
