Description
ELVIS PRESLEY HEARTBREAK HOTEL DEMONSTRATION RECORDING 78RPM SINGLE
GIVEN TO ME WHEN I WAS VERY YOUNG BY AN UNCLE WHO WORKED FOR THE BBC.SO I AM ASSUMING WAS DONE BY THE BBC OR GIVEN TO BE PLAYED ON RADIO PROGRAM
CONDITION IS NOT GREAT AS YOU CAN SEE BY THE PICTURES UPLOADED.ONE SIDE HAS THE LABEL TORN AND SCRATCHES ARE PRESENT.HOWEVER I WOULD THINK IT FAIRLY RARE AND THAT IT COULD PROBABLY BE SET UP TO PLAY.
APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN RECORDED BY THE B.F.WOOD MUSIC COMPANY,MILLSHOUSE.LONDON W.C.2 BY STAN FREBERG.
On 10-Aug-14 at 21:16:59 BST, seller added the following information:HI. I HAVE HAD A ENQUIRERY ABOUT THIS ITEM.ARE THE VOCALS ELVIS OR STAN FREBERG AS THEY BOTH DID VERSIONS RECORDED ON 78.VERY GOOD QUESTION I MUST SAY.I HAVE PLAYED ,BUT ONLY ON 45 AS MY PORTABLE WIND UP IS LONG GONE.I CONCLUDE THAT ONE SIDE IS ELVIS AND THE OTHER SIDE STAN .NOT 100% CERTAIN UNTIL PLAYED AT THE RIGHT SPEED.BUT THE LABELS CERTAINLY SUPPORT THIS .
I WOULD REPEAT THERE ARE MUCH SCRATCHING,BUT WITH VERY LIGHT STYLUS SET UP MANAGED TO PLAY THEM THROUGH ALBEIT CRACKLY LIKE A VERY OLD RECORDING.
