​
​
This album was only issued in mono. The original idea was to release an LP in 1963, titled: "Elvis For You" (RD 7586) and at that time it didn't include "Are You Lonesome Tonight" or "It's Now Or Never" as part of it's contents. As explained earlier, RCA never issued "Elvis For You" and British fans had to wait until now to get "Flaming Star" and "Summer Kisses" which up until this point were never released in the U.K.
​
​
NOTE: This LP was issued using the matrix number S2PP. S2 = 1965 plus older material

​
This album was kept in stock by issuing re-pressings with the same catalogue number
until it was deleted by RCA in September 1970.

This LP was not the same as the U.S. release. It used a different front sleeve (publicity photo from the movie "Tickle Me" and omitted "Summer Kisses, Winter Tears" because it was released two months earlier in the U.K. on the album "Flaming Star & Summer Kisses". It contained a nice treat in the form of an unreleased 1954 sun track, "Tomorrow Night" which had been recently overdubbed by Chet Atkins in Nashville.

The U.K. album used the title "Harem Holiday" whereas in the United States it was called "Harum Scarum". The front cover looks like it included a reversed image of Elvis. The background image (top Right) looks correct.. The soundtrack material was pretty much the same routine as before...

​
The U.K. album used the title "Harem Holiday" whereas in the United States it was called "Harum Scarum". The front cover looks like it included a reversed image of Elvis. The background image (top Right) looks correct.. The soundtrack material was pretty much the same routine as before...
