The front cover used a cropped photograph of a two year old Elvis. The rear cover had a live shot of Elvis in concert. The material was recorded in Nashville in 1970, with Elvis in fine voice. Early pressings of this album came with a free double-sided card of Elvis.
Each track on this album were continually linked together using excerpts from the song "I Was Born About Ten Thousand Years Ago".
NOTE: This LP was issued using the matrix number ZPRS. ZP = 1970 RS = Stereo LP

This album was kept in stock by issuing re-pressings with the same catalogue number. It was later assigned a new number when released on the International Label in 1981.
