November 4, 2024 Record of the Day

In the summer of 1955, 20-year old Elvis Presley gains national exposure for the first time when he reaches # 1 on Billboard, but not on the pop chart. He does it with a song on Billboards’ Country Chart with “I Forgot to Remember to Forget.” The 45, released on Sun Records, is worth up to $750.00 while the 78 rpm version can sell for up to $1200.00. Both are shown here.
