Today's Auctions:  Another variety day of Elvis records, some hard to find, most all are in just great shape.  If you love Elvis you will enjoy your stop at Burning Love Records, your one stop show for all your Elvis items.  Highlights today include the "Witchcraft Album" in super are multi splash vinyl, a classic rare bootleg.  Also have the rare "Boxcar" LP that the Colonel and Elvis sold until closed down by RCA, quite a classic these days.  Don't miss the RCA Christmas Album, a short lived Pickwick look alike, but its "Not".  Also have the a SEALED HBO Album, one of the coolest art work albums ever done and the very rare Disconet "Elvis Medley", just some great stuff.  Be sure and check it all out!

Closer Look At the Item:   The story behind this LP is almost as cool as the LP itself.  In 1974 the Colonel, always trying to find a new way to make more money, came up with an idea to create a record that would be sold by him and Elvis at his concert venues only.  Anotherwords, instead of taking a portion of RCA profits , he and Elvis would get it all.  He knew that RCA owned the sole rights to Elvis' singing voice, but he reasoned they did not own rights to his speaking voice.  So he had some engineers go through  concert tapes and pull out Elvis talking between songs and placed them all on this LP and then had some pressed and they began to be sold at Elvis concerts.  RCA noted this quickly and was not amused and threatened to sue both Elvis and the Colonel if they didn't immediately pull the album, one of the few times RCA stood their ground with the Colonel.  Needless to say, the album was pulled, deleted and RCA always in  a quest for new Elvis material re-packaged the LP with their logo and label and sold it through their distribution network.  All of this has made this album quite a collectable all these years later, one that is hard to come by.  This one is in nice shape, cover has some light wear, record is perfect mint condition.  If you don't have this in your collection, you are missing a real collectable with a unique and pure Colonel story behind it.   Mint value is in the $250 range!

Rating Guide:

Mint (M):  Perfect in every way, looks to have never been played, should have that look just as it did when you pulled the record from the new cover at the time of original purchase.

Mint Minus (M-):  A nearly perfect record and cover.  This item should show no readily visible signs of wear,  covers and sleeves should have no more than nearly invisible rings or other signs of slight wear and vinyl should still be completely glossy and shiney, just the very lightest hint of wear if it is tilted to very bright light. 

Very Good Plus (VG+):  This record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled carefully by the previous owner.  Record surfaces will show some light signs of paper scuffing or light scratches, that don't affect the listening experience.  Slight warps that do not affect sound are OK.  This disc should still contain much of its original luster and sheen.  The covers and picture sleeves should also be in very nice shape, they may have light ring wear or other signs of wear, may have a small cut out hole, indention or stamping present.  Also there can be non obvious writing on the paper goods.

Very Good (VG):  Many of the defects found in the VG+ record and cover will be present but more pronounced in the VG item.  Surface noise will be evident, although the record should play through without skipping or repeating.  Groove wear will now be noticable, scuffing and light scratching will be appearent, a scratch now can be felt with a fingernail.  Labels will be marred with tape or tape residue, stickers or descret writing.  The same will be true for the LP cover or picture sleeve.

Good (G):  Good does not mean bad!  A record in good condition should be placed on a turntable and it should play through, all though the surface noise will be evident.  A cover or picture sleeve will have seam splitting, especially on the bottom seam or spine.  Also there will be noticable ring wear caused by the presence of the record.  The defects will start to overwhere this item.

Fair (F) or Poor (P):  This record will be cracked, badly warped, and will not play through without skipping or repeating.  The picture sleeeve or LP cover will show lots and lots of wear, the seams will be split on all three sides barely able to hold the record.  This item will appear near valueless, unless of course it is a rarity that may not be seen again.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!
