Elvis Presley Original First Pressing 45 - Sun Record 209
It's always a thrill seeing Elvis first Sun recording - Certainly one of the greatest events in Rock N Roll history
Here is a great opportunity to pick up a nice copy of Elvis very first Sun records release, a first pressing from 1954. This little gem has been in my personal Elvis collection. This vintage record plays through on both sides with that good ol' Sun hiss sound. Vinyl is in Good condition with surface scratches on each side and as mentioned it has been play tested and plays all the way through on each side. I have included several photos of the labels and would note there is a small sticker with the number 30 listed on it on the "Blue Moon of Kentucky" side. I have not attempted to remove because I didn't want to risk tearing the label.

Elvis Sun Record That's All Right
Elvis Sun Record Blue Moon of Kentucky
(Both sides feature that infamous Sun Record's Hiss, and while both sides play through, the side with Blue Moon of Kentucky seems to have 3-4 clicks or pops that appear during the instrumental, but once again does not cause the actual record to skip and it does play through on both sides).
