35 Years On

August 01, 2012 | Music

August is Elvis Month in the Belgian Elvis Shop, especially in this special “35”-year. During the entire month of August, every customer who orders for 35 euro or more gets this exclusive single FOR FREE, on top of the regular discount stickers!

This 7” release on high quality colour vinyl will be a unique collector’s item, not for sale anywhere.

The A SIDE contains a rare radio report of the first days after the King’s unexpected passing, August 1977. Among the mourners who comment are Vernon Presley – just hours after the body of his son was found in Graceland’s bathroom. Goose bumps when you hear this, and undoubtedly to be classified under HISTORIC RECORDINGS.

The B SIDE is for Elvis, with his version of PEACE IN THE VALLEY – the same song that his fans sang in front of the Gates after the tragic news had spread. Track number 2 is TAKE MY HAND PRECIOUS LORD, which speaks for itself.

This unique single is available in the ElvisMatters Shop in Belgium AND through online orders (www.shopelvismatters.com). Note: offer applies while supply lasts. One copy per customer strictly between August 1 and 31, 2012 after purchase of 35 euro or more.

Great offer...but it would have been so much better if EMatters would have found another (more recent) version (or rehearsal) of Elvis re-doing this great gospel song ! Who has that version ? Then people will buy 35 euros or more, for sure ! Meanwhile I also want to see Sony release the Live Box with more bonus songs added. Easy to do... like the unreleased movie versions of BSShoes, One night, LmT, HHotel a.o. (still available in the vault we guess. Hint hint !
