Elvis I'm Counting On Them On Colored Vinyl RSD 2024 VPI Label
April 20 2024 marks the annual Record Store Day, a day dedicated to vinyl and bringing together music lovers around the world. In honor of this special day, the VPT label proudly announces two exclusive Elvis Presley releases, which should not be missing in the collection of every Elvis fan.
The first release, titled "I'm Counting on Them," pays tribute to two singer-songwriters and pianists who left an indelible mark on the King's work and career. Otis Blackwell, who excelled in rock 'n' roll and provided Elvis with no fewer than three number 1 hits, and Don Robertson, a master of the art of the ballad whose compositions were often found on the B-sides of successful singles. Both artists have undeniably contributed to Elvis' musical legacy and rightly deserve a place on this special release.
This special edition is released on blue vinyl with a beautiful galaxy effect, and comes in an inner sleeve with text in both English and French. Specially remastered for the audiophile listener, this collector's edition promises a unique listening experience. Mind you, this edition is limited to just 1,500 copies worldwide, making it a must-have for collectors.
This release also appears on CD.
