180g Audiophile Vinyl Mastered by Friday Music's Joe Reagoso With Kevin Gray From Original Monophonic RCA Victor Records Tapes! Pressed at RTI!

Elvis Aaron Presley was born during the great depression into a poor family in Mississippi. They moved to Memphis during the early fifties, and as a struggling young truck driver, he cut some demos at Sun Studios as a gift for his beloved mother Gladys. These initial songs, of which he had only paid a few dollars to record, would become the catalyst that would kick-start the beginnings of a soon to be worldwide superstar unlike the world has ever known.

Elvis had the unmatchable skill of combining his vocals to resemble both R&B and country. This with the persona and choreography of a Hollywood movie star on stage, the young Elvis Presley was soon touring, and over the year achieved a number of regional hit singles, electrifying audiences into frenzies wherever he performed.

The folks at RCA Victor knew that this young fellow named Elvis was destined for superstardom. They quickly bought out his contract and signed the legend to a long term deal, and his first RCA single Heartbreak Hotel forever etched “The King Of Rock And Roll” trademark to his name.

In 1956, after a chart topping debut LP, his second smash number one album simply called Elvis truly proved once again that his career was unlike any other in music history.

Filled with more energy than a fireball, the Elvis album takes off with the Little Richard classic rocker Rip It Up. Another chart topping Elvis single follows with his much revered Love Me, a song which he would perform well into the seventies. The album also featured more smash hits like the Otis Blackwell/Elvis Presley rocker Paralyzed, a blues belter Arthur Crudup revisit with Elvis’ interpretation of So Glad You’re Mine, and Red Foley’s tender ballad about man’s best friend Old Shep. In total, the album showcases twelve important Elvis Presley recordings which have truly stood the test of time.
