Following the unexpected massive success of "Heartbreak Hotel," this was as startling a debut record as any ever made and besides gospel it represented every side of Elvis Presley's musical influences from rockabilly to blues and R&B to country and pop. Elvis' self-titled 1956 debut became the first rock & roll album to reach the number one spot on the national charts and RCA's first million dollar-earning pop album. Legacy Recordings has gone to great lengths to present this classic album exactly the way it was originally intended, with all the warmth and nuance that only vinyl can offer!
