Sad To See It Go: No

For me this is the best Elvis compilation you could possibly have.  All Killer, no filler, compiled of singles close to the time they came out and went Gold.  Nothing post army, nothing Sun, nothing Vegas, just the King and the stuff that made him "The King."

This particular copy was a late 70's RCA Stereo reissue.  One interesting thing I noted is how all the images are from the 50's copy or the 80's CD.  Sorry, I noticed this after I had packed the record up to ship out.  It isn't that important, really.  Unless you are one of those "I must have every pressing of Elvis" people with a warehouse in your home.

I've been trying to navigate the world of Whatnot styles.  If you don't get the right room and aren't careful you will give stuff away and feel like you could've gotten better money.  However, I see some people blow up stuff I would never expect.  I think I prefer "prep" style to "rando" style but you have to put in an hour to host an hour "prep" style.  

"All Shook Up" was my first Elvis record on 45 passed down.

Bob's public precursor to his own divorce has taken a strange turn in the public narrative over the years, whether reflecting domestic tranquility or turbulence.   Beyonc é  might tell you she flips pancakes or boils an egg to Blood On The Tracks on a Sunday morning.  Jakob Dylan might rail that ...

I still have my beat up mono copy passed dow...
