Elvis Presley Aloha from Hawaii BLUE VINYL Experimental RCA Pressing Quad LP

 

Newly discovered from the RCA pressing plant in Indianapolis, Indiana! A never before seen blue vinyl experimental pressing of the Elvis Presley Quadradisc LP "Aloha from Hawaii via Satellite" RCA VPSX-6089 (CPRT-4748/CPRT-4749). "Aloha From Hawaii" was commercially released in 1973 as a double album. This record however is an experimental pressing and was never intended for commercial release. Part of this blue vinyl experimental pressing was to sample each of two weights of vinyl. Rigid (will not bend) and Dynaflex (flexible). An extremely small number of this first disc (4748/4749) was discovered, pressed in both rigid & Dynaflex vinyl, and my original understanding was that only one known copy (Dynaflex only) of the second disc (4750/4751) was found, although I've recently learned that there may be more than one but still an extremely small number of these also. The record was not issued with a cover but has a generic RCA Red Seal poly-lined inner sleeve. Instead of the usual "Side 1" and "Side 2", these orange Quadradisc labels are "Side A" and "Side B", and "Victor" is not found on these labels. Needless to say, this is an extremely rare and exciting new find in the Elvis Presley and record collecting world. This record will be gracing the cover of the new Presleyana VII to be released next month.
