Offered is a remarkably well-perserved 1954 Sun Records 223 78 RPM 10-Inch Single of Elvis Presley's “Mystery Train” and “I Forgot to Remember to Forget”. This is certainly one of the nicest example of a Sun 78 RPM single we have ever seen--bold bright labels and high-condition vinyl like we rarely run into. Sun Records released the single of “Mystery Train” in August of 1955 with “I Forgot to Remember to Forget” on side B. Later that year, in November of 1955, after they purchased Elvis' contract from Sam Phillips, RCA Victor purchased the master records from Sun and released “Mystery Train” again that month, followed by the release of the additional four Sun singles in December of 1955. “Mystery Train” is considered to be the recording that gained Elvis recognition as a country music star and was ranked #77 on Rolling Stone magazine’s “500 Greatest Songs of All Time.” The record measures 10 inches in diamter and presents with few flaws, just a few minor scuffs on both sides. STUNNING VG++ condition.
