Elvis Presley - Moody Blue Vinyl Record Album Cover

This is the original cover for the 1977 studio album 'Moody Blue' by Elvis Presley, released on RCA Records (catalog AFL1-2428). The visual design features a prominent profile of Elvis on stage against a dark background, accented by a light diffraction star effect. The color palette is dominated by deep blues and blacks, with the 'ELVIS MOODY BLUE' text rendered in a bold, stylized yellow-to-orange gradient font on the right. This specific cover is a standard 12-inch cardboard sleeve. Physical condition shows visible ring wear on the front, particularly in the lower center and corners, and slight edge wear/scuffing along the spine and opening. The corners appear slightly bumped. 'Moody Blue' was the final studio album released during Presley's lifetime, making it an essential piece of music history from the late 1970s. The craftsmanship is typical of high-volume commercial LP production of the era, utilizing semi-gloss printed cardstock. The presence of the AFL1 catalog number on the bottom right corner suggests an original pressing rather than a posthumous reissue.
