The following EP is the first Elvis EP ever to be issued in France in 1956. It was titled Rock and Roll N° 2 (N° 1 was by Mike Pedicin Quintet).

In 1957, RCA France decided to reissue it and include it in a series of 5 EPs with the same photo on cover (pix of the first LP).

They were continually reissued till the end of the sixties, but with a different cover (a Jailhouse Rock pix) and label from 1961 on.

Thanks for these great covers.
I have this cover which was given as a bonus cd with the vinyl book.
I wished I had the original.

This should be better in the Spinnin' Around section.

That's the place for this terrific thread! Are more cover variations known?
