Description

Bob Harrison "Yellow Moon" 1975 LP on Bob Co Records.  Obscure, odd, self-released album by Grass Valley, California Elvis impersonator Bob Harrison.  Unlike every other Elvis impersonator, Harrison wasn't content to just sing the songs Elvis did - instead, he wrote his OWN songs and music, chronicling his life.  Features eleven Bob Harrison originals. "* Rock * Country * Ballads... Something for everyone!" as it says on the cover. 
This copy is inscribed on the front cover: "My dear Elsie, You're super and sexy!  Love Bob Harrison"

Released in 1975 to zero reception, this LP (and Harrison's other release on 45) have garnered a solid cult following.  (Google the "Bob Harrison Yellow Dog Bubbling Dusk" blog for a very loving review of Harrison's output.)  There are also some songs from this LP uploaded to youtube (not from my copy).  
Cover is nice, with a little bit of ring wear (see photo) on the front cover.  Very minor bumping at bottom left corner.  Back cover is extremely clean.
Vinyl is very nice- not perfect, but clean.  There is one visible scratch on Side 2 but it is barely audible on playback. Labels are perfect.
A truly unique LP, and pretty amazing given that Elvis Presley was STILL ALIVE when this was released. And, a truly great cover design.  Outstanding copy of a very hard to find outsider LP.
I have some other obscure Private Press LPs currently on Ebay - check my other items for sale of interested. I will happily combine shipping.

This is a no reserve auction.  I will sell internationally - contact me for a ship quote if you are outside the US.

ABOUT ME:  I am not a professional dealer, I am a collector who is always looking for records, guitars, cars and parts, old magazines, photos, comics and other neat stuff.  I mostly sell duplicates from my own collection plus other stuff I find while looking for the stuff I do collect.

As a collector, I know what a bummer it is to open a package to find an item that's not in the condition it was advertised in, so I try to be very honest and exacting in my condition appraisals.  I want you to be 100% STOKED on anything you buy from me, so I happily take returns - no questions asked - for two weeks after sale as long as the item comes back in the same condition I sent it out in. I also know what a drag it is to have a rare item destroyed in shipping- so I make sure to pack very carefully.  I've been on Ebay for nearly 15 years and I've worked hard to maintain 100% positive feedback!

Please feel free to message me with any questions and good luck with your bidding!
