Description
Moody Blue ~ AQL1 2428 (Black Vinyl) Reissue
Label: Silver top MONO
Vinyl: NM
Cover: VG+
Further Details
This is the Black label AQL1 re-issue from 1980, and not the original AFL1 version from 1977. The record looks like it may have never been played.
Items of Note
This is the 1980 re-issue of the last album released during Elvis’ life. It contains the hit songs “Moody Blue” and “Way Down.” The latter of these two songs was the final song to chart during Elvis’ lifetime, reaching #31 on the Billboard charts on August 6, 1977. After having fallen to #53 the week after Elvis died, it reversed direction and reached a peak of #18 during the last week of September and the first week of October, 1977. It also reached #1 on the Country charts the week Elvis died.
“Way Down” also contains the lowest note sung on a Top 40 record. JD Sumner sings a double low C (3 octaves below middle C) on the last note of the song (something he also did in the 1966 hymn recording of “Blessed Assurance”).
