Found this from Record Mirror week ending this day.
Page three has a look back at Elvis' UK releases to date, singles, EP's and LP's.

An interesting read, thanks !
The failure to make the Top 10 on the UK singles chart for One Broken Heart for Sale is mentioned.
At the time, suggested reasons were:
Too short.
More is heard from the backing singers than Elvis.
A bland & weak follow-up single to his No.1 smash hit Return to Sender.

Good point !
The success of Return to Sender was his last single before the UK was gripped by Beatle-mania !
It was a pity that they gained popularity just when his next release was such a poor one.
