Elvis's recorded That's All Right and Blue Moon of Kentucky on July 5, 1954. It was released on 19 July 1954, with Blue Moon of Kentucky as B side.

In 2004 the Rolling Stone magazine argued in an article that That's All Right was the first rock'n'roll record and classified it as the 112th best song of all times on its list of "500 Hundred Best Songs of All Times".

This rare record is a 78. The "B" side is, Blue Moon of Kentucky, and is one of a few that are available in such excellent condition.

Wouldn't it be nice if it was to stay in Shreveport!

I wonder what happened to this 60 year collection of photographs, clothing, memorabilia that covered the walls from floor to ceiling in every room and closet.
