Jack White And The First Elvis Recording | Poetic Wax

On the anniversary of Elvis Presley’s passing and the new release by Jack White, Andy Fenstermaker digs into his record collection to tell the story of how White acquired Elvis’s first ever recording. He looks at the history of the recording, recounting the story and how Elvis landed his first record deal, and shares the wild tale of White’s winning bid for the one-off acetate at an auction in 2015 for the whopping sum of $300,000.
