DESCRIPTION: Rare Ltd. Reproduction of Elvis' First SUN RECORD, My Happiness/That's When Your Heartache Begins, MINT
T
This is a Fantastic Limited Edition Exact Reproduction of Elvis' First Sun Record EVER!
As in the original, this Limited Reproduction of 300 copies:
My Happiness/That’s When Your Heartaches Begin was a white label with typewriting on it. A leftover of the Sun label from Prisonnaires' Softly And Tenderly (Sun 189) single was flipped over so that the back was used. On the original acetate can you see the Sun Label thru the label.
This reproduction label is exactly the same. Both Labels on this 10 Inch have been typed on the back of Original Sun Labels.
It is very visible under normal light but difficult to photograph).
In August 1953 a very young Elvis Presley walked into the local Memphis Recording Service.
He paid $ 4.00 to recorded two sides and take them home with him on a one of kind two sided acetate. The songs were the two ballads My Happiness and That’s When Your Heartaches Begin. Elvis probably hoped that Sam Phillips (the owner of Memphis Recording Service and the founder of the local record label Sun Records) would pay attention to him and that he might get a chance on being invited for a real recording session. Sam wasn't there that day but Marion Keiser who at that time worked for Sam did hear the recordings and noted that Elvis was a great ballad singer. She decided to make copies of his recordings to play for SAM unfortunately, Sam wasn't impressed so poor Elvis never received his call to fame. Of course we know somehow it happened and That is where his Second Recording Ever Comes in.................
