This is the second EP in the set of three. I posted the first one here.
“So Glad You’re Mine” is from Elvis’ early RCA sessions in New York.
“Old Shep” is the song Elvis sang in a singing contest at the Mississippi-Alabama Fair and Dairy Show on 3. October 1945. That was his first public performance, and he came in 5th place. The song was originally recorded by Red Foley in 1935.
I don’t have the disc for this. Gotta do some shopping in eBay someday.
