Description
Elvis Presley 45 Gospel EP Peace In The Valley EPA-4054.
Only a small portion missing on the top right in the keeps this from being completely sealed. Small bump at the corner as well.
I assume the record is near mint and the cardboard cover is in excellent condition with no seam splits.

Peace in the Valley is an EP by American singer and musician Elvis Presley, released in April 1957 on RCA Victor Records in mono with catalogue number EPA 4054. It reached number three on the short-lived Billboard EP chart, number three on the album chart and number 39 on the singles chart. By the 1950s, Presley's hometown of Memphis, Tennessee had become a center for gospel music in the United States.[2] Presley grew up listening to this music, and maintained an abiding love for gospel singing his entire life. This EP initiated Presley's commercial presentation of this interest. Presley would go on to make many more recordings of spiritual music, including the issue of the gospel albums His Hand In Mine, How Great Thou Art, and He Touched Me, the latter two earning him Grammy Awards. A live recording of "How Great Thou Art" from the 1974 live album Elvis Recorded Live on Stage in Memphis would win Elvis a third Grammy.
The first know live performance of Peace In The Valley by was in January 1955 in a little town down the road from where i live at the Humble Oil Company Camp Recreation Center in Hawkins, Tx. At the end of the set he sat at the piano in the center and mesmerized the crowd. The piano was donated to a local church where it still sits.
