🧾 NOTES FOR COLLECTORS
Posthumous Pressing: The presence of the "Memories of Elvis" sticker, which cites an NBC-TV show from November 1977, confirms this is a reissue pressed shortly after Elvis passed away in August 1977. Quadraphonic Format: Despite being a later pressing, this album retains the "quadradisc" branding and specific catalog number (CPD2-2642) for RCA's CD-4 Quadraphonic series. Quadraphonic vinyl was a precursor to surround sound and requires a specialized stylus and demodulator to hear the 4-channel mix, though it plays in stereo on standard turntables. Jacket Variant: The back cover features the code "RE 2" in the bottom center, indicating a revision to the jacket printing. Global Appeal: The back cover famously translates "We Love Elvis" into multiple languages, emphasizing the global nature of the original satellite broadcast. |
