Elvis' Golden Records (Audp) (Gate)

180gm red colored vinyl LP pressing. Elvis Aaron Presley was born during the great depression into a poor family in Mississippi. They moved to Memphis during the early '50s, 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 career of a soon to be worldwide superstar unlike the world has ever known. 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. He would eventually become the most successful solo artist of all time! Elvis' Golden Records also included some of his finest number one ballads like "Love Me Tender" and "I Want You, I Need You, I Love You," plus more top rock and roll hits like "Teddy Bear," "Treat Me Nice" and "Too Much." In total, the album showcases fourteen important Elvis Presley hit recordings which have truly gone on to become definitive classics by any measure of popular music.
