On Stage February, 1970 was released in June 1970. This would be the second consecutive live release of Elvis Presley of 1970. Upon entering Billboard’s Hot LP chart on June 20, 1970, On Stage peaked at number 13. It remained on the chart for twenty weeks. The original release of the album was printed in all red lettering on the back of the cover. Later releases would be in white letter, this copy does not subscribe to either standard as it is in all red lettering with only one line in white. Both copies have the orange label, rigid vinyl indicating the first original pressing. Both copies are in their original shrink wrap for an even comparison of this rare and unusual undocumented variation.

The variation is on the back of the cover. Both covers have red print as indicated in the above cover 1 description. However, note the difference Stereo LSP-4362 is in red lettering on one and white lettering on the other. The one with red and white lettering seems to be the variation.
