          Got a NM translucent blue original, sounds about as good as it can for a nearly 45 year old LP, The songs recorded in Graceland are less dynamic than the tracks pulled from live shows, but still a great collection of his latter year tunes. I am pleased with the overall sound quality!

            My copy has side A variant 2 etched and side B variant 4 stamped... do they normally combine variants like that?

              This was one of two albums recorded at the Jungle Room in his home in Graceland.

                I own a Moody Blue version on the " music girl " label Front and back are the same ( same as front original release ) the only difference is the first two tracks on side A ( 1 = if you love me ( let me know ) 2 = unchained melody ) while on the original copy unchained melody is the first track...there is no year of release only the number US - 672 ( so i think it is an usa release ? ) Anybody heard of this version ?
