Hailing from the historic studio tracking sessions that defined early rock history, this 1982 British extended play serves up an exceptional audio document for serious Presley discographers. This specific forty-five rpm seven-inch was manufactured for the prestigious retrospective box set anthology The E.P. Collection Vol. 2, catalogued by specialists under master library key EP2. Bearing individual reference assignment RCX 7200, the black-and-silver RCA disc incorporates a classic four-pronged push-out spindle centre hub layout. The record remains beautifully protected within a high-gloss cardboard sleeve styled with traditional flipback reverse panels, delivering significant historic charm for collectors of vintage UK formats tracking distinct packaging variants.

The runout areas flanking the playing surfaces contain the elite A-1U and B-1U master stampers. Crucially, the side-one dead-wax displays the "B.J." initials whilst side two carries the "cts" engraving, verifying elite remastered audio work completed at the renowned CTS studios. These brilliant cuts preserve the punch of the native monaural mixes across a fantastic tracking list. Side A features the beautiful ballad "I Need You So", "Have I Told You Lately That I Love You?", and the moving "Tell Me Why". Turning the vinyl over to Side B reveals classic renditions of "Blueberry Hill", "Don't Leave Me Now", and the brooding rockabilly blues number "When It Rains, It Really Pours".
