charting info for this
This EP did not have an US version and it is a bit of a compilation. A1 was originally the flipside of Elvis’ 1958 single “Don’t”, A2 was the flip of “Jailhouse Rock” (1957) and B1 was his 1957 hit single.
This is the second pressing of the EP (April 1958). The first pressing has horizontal lines on the label, and it is quite rare.
List price: A German release and therefore not in the catalog. These have been sold for 15 euros (with picture sleeves) and up in eBay.
