RCA thought that Elvis was too fat on the original cover photo and so they replaced his head with a shot from 1964's 'Girl Happy'. The art department however clearly got Elvis' head to body out of proportion. (RCA did later a similar thing for the LP cover of his film 'Paradise, Hawaiian Style'). |
A 2nd pressing of this CD in 2012 has the barcode elongated on the back cover. The disc is made by Dicenta instead of Tocano, therefor the Matrix and Mould codes are changed. Furthermore the disc (and probably the middle inside panel, with the disc photo, too) has layout changes compare to the 2003 version: Bigger 'RCA Victor' logo. White background in 'RCA' logo. Text 'LSP 3553' different positioned. Text 'side 1' different positioned, with 'new orthophonic high fidelity' added to the text. |
