Description

ELVIS PRESLEY MEGA RARE ARMED FORCES & RADIO TELEVISION SERVICES  AFRTS PROMO LP.
ELVIS AS RECORDED AT MADION SQUARE GARDENS  B/W ELVIS SINGS HITS FROM HIS MOVIES
I am thinning out my lifetime collection of records, cds, books, vintage clothing, vintage household items etc etc over the coming months (or years!). I have been collecting all things 1950s for nearly 40 years & a lot of it has to go … to make room for new acquisitions! Please check out my “other items” for more great stuff.


A very very rare Lp, so much so it's almost impossible to find out any info on it on the internet-  

ELVIS PRESLEY As Recorded At Madison Square Garden RL5-3.

 Rare US American Forces Radio & Television Services 12-track promotional-only library transcription vinyl LP, banded for broadcast to US forces overseas. Contains 5 tracks from the live album with song & cue timings printed on the custom label, plus a further 7 from 'Elvis Sings Hits From His Movies' on the flip 


Comes in just a generic white sleeve & labels look great. Record shows well but does shows signs of play. The Madison Sq side starts with crackles but ends up playing well & with a bass line more prominent than I remember on the original LP ... but it has been a while! The Sings Hits From side  

!!!!!   GLOBAL SHIPPING too high???   !!!!!

 Please contact me at least 24hrs BEFORE the auction ends & as long as there are no bids on the items, I can try & get you a better shipping price & if you’re agreeable with that price & willing to place your bid, I will remove the GLOBAL SHIPPING option for you (which I add to my listings to give the listing worldwide exposure). No alterations to shipping or the listing can be made in the last 24hrs or after the auction end I'm afraid.

***Please be aware that if you are overseas & the items you wish to buy have the GLOBAL SHIPPING option featured, eBay will NOT allow me to combine shipping, which is a disgrace but something out of my control, so if you are overseas & considering buying more than one item from me, PLEASE do contact me at least 24hrs before the auction ends & we can try & get around it with another postal option & then remove GLOBAL SHIPPING, but this cannot be done in the last 24hrs of an auction, NOR after the auction ends. eBay's rules not mine, sorry***

If you are in the UK & purchase more than one item from me, I will always happily combine postage for you, just make me aware of your multiple purchases after the auctions have ended & I will send you a revised invoice.

A bid was immediately put on the listing before I realised I hadn't finished the description of side 2 !      - Side 2 plays similar to side 1 less the bass line. I plan to put the record through my pro record cleaner before the auction end.

On 14-Sep-23 at 23:18:29 BST, seller added the following information:

The record has now had a thorough clean with "L'art Du Son" & vacuumed. It has a very minor warp that does not affect play (see video) Madison Side has some scuff marks thru S Minds which causes some slight distort & Hits side has a light scratch through the first 3 songs which gives the occasional click. I know most will bid on it just to own it because of it's rarity but it's still nice to know the condition.
