That black and white (Israeli?) cover of Fun In Acapulco is really cool! I always find it interesting how Elvis's album covers were changed for different appeal in different cultures.

Not my photo (my LPs, along with much of the rest of my stuff, have been in storage for years), but I haven't seen much mention of this album:

It was released in New Zealand in 1979. The story I heard was that it was promptly taken off the market because of Colonel Parker or RCA-USA (or whoever) objecting to the release. My first copy had a different back cover than subsequent ones. Not sure how much these would be worth now in terms of semolians, but just the very nature of being made for a relatively small marketplace would suggest that it's not a very common item...

The israeli pressing of that black cover was from 1973 !!!
Back in 1964 the LP released just the same as the original USA cover
That soundtrack was one of the biggest in Israel so it was released for the second time 10 years after it was showed
Great movie, great soundtrack

This CD single was included in the Swdeish book shown below. There are a lot of interesting things in it, but only written in swedish. Börje Lundberg met Elvis in Las Vegas august 1973. He´s a journalist in one of the biggest newspapers in Sweden: Expressen. I will translate some pages, including "Pete Hallin´s" views of Elvis later
Börje.jpg
.

This single should be rare outside Sweden. The tracks are:

Good rockin´ tonight
Blue moon of Kentucky
Milcow blues boogie
That´s all right

Kind regards

Björn

PS: Yes, it´s my legs! :mrgreen:

Looking forward to you translations Bjorn!

Has anybody got anymore covers to show?


I saw Elvis live in concert the year before he died. Even then, he was bigger than life, and had amazing charisma. Haven't seen anything like it since, ....until Adam.........Nocturnal 2010
