JAPANESE LP's

SJV-79                     Best Hits Of Screen `64

Did you ever see this one? This is one of rarest and most unknown releases. You won´t find it in any record guide. But beware! The value of this record is only for the cover, showing a great shot of Elvis and Ann-Margret from Viva Las Vegas, as the record does not feature any music by Elvis. The instrumental music on this album is performed by the Movie Symphonic Orchestra, playing the best movie songs from 1964. The album was released in 1965 by NIVICO.

Value: 400 - 500 US$

This beautiful mint-colored RCA label was released in Japan in 1984. This record is a sampler of nineteen songs, having the word Blue in the songtitle. As many other japanese albums, this has an extra sheet with linernotes and song lyrics. The stamped matrix numbers of this record are: RPL-8258A and RPL-8258B. Long deleted album with one of the most beautiul artworks. Other variations are also available.

HP-504                    Elvis’ Golden Record

This is without doubt, one of the most sought after Elvis records from Japan. This beautiful 10” compilation was released as part of the Hit Parade Series on April 20th, 1960. I have seen this record being offered (and sold) for more than $2,000. The backside of the sleeve has japanese liner notes and the song lyrics printed in black on white stock. The matrix numbers are: JLP 302 and JLP 303.
Value: 900 - 1.200 US$

RPL-3532                Elvis Presley By Request

This orange RCA label was released in Japan in 1982 and contains  a rough mix of fifteen live and studio songs, recorded between 1956 and 1973, from Don´t Be Cruel and If I Can Dream to My Way and Polk Salad Annie. As many other japanese albums, this one includes an extra sheet with linernotes and song lyrics. The stamped matrix numbers are: RPL-3532A and RPL-3532B. 
Value: 30 - 40 US$

SHP-5436                Girl Happy

Probably the most beautiful of all Elvis covers in the world. This is the original RCA Victor black label release from March 20th, 1965. It was later re-released with the new RCA logo and a orange label. Plain white backside with japanese liner notes only. The album has a light-blue LP sized sheet with song lyrics. Beware of white label test pressings. These so called test pressings were all faked and I haven’t seen any original yet, even though they might indeed exist.
Value: 200 - 250 US$

R4P-5029                That´s The Way It Is

This very rare Quadradisc from Japan was released in August 1972. The release is the only known Quadradisc of That´s The Way It Is, making this vinyl one of the most wanted records by Elvis fans and collectors. Compared with releases from other countries, the fantastic and most beautiful gatefold cover really stands alone. The stamped matrix are: R4P 5029A 1214 SJRBCRC and R4P 5029B 1414.
Value: 350 - 400 US$

SX-61                       That´s The Way It Is

Rarely seen promotional release from Japan, with a simple but also attractive design, which is unique to anywhere else in the world. It came with a white label and gatefold cover. This special promo must have been released no later than February 1971. The stamped matrix numbers are: ZPRS 1867 111+ TA and ZPRS 1868 111+.
Value: 300 - 350 US$
