During the sixties many Elvis Flexi records were produced in Japan.
They came inside pop magazines and in full color fold out 'All Elvis'
photo magazines. Ive never ever had one in my hands, and know
just about nothing of these releases...Except they are Rare, with
a Capital R !

More Flexis will follow.

It's been a while... but the Sushi Bar is open for bizniz again.
A mixed bag, as it's hard to find more Japanese rarities on the internet
right now. Doing the best I can. Rice wine anyone?

Me neither, i know shit about Jap flexi's!
But i do love original Jap: EP's, 45's and LP's. When it comes to artwork the Japs are in a world of there own.
Look at there original "Loving You" & "King Creole" LP covers?! Fantastic! Love to own these.

Read file comments for more info.

I'll be back in the office when it's a bit less hot in the room...
whenever that may be!?

Enjoy.

Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue...
A few new pieces, and a few 'classics'.... in superb quality! Enjoy.
