I am a little embarassed to offer these for sale as they are not up to my usual standard of condition. However they are such an important part of the history of ELVIS, and have that genuine original raw sound.

SLEEVES are pretty much battered and have been sellotaped hither and thither.

VINYLS have lots of marks and scuffs BUT no big scratches and all play smashing. ( just a little crackle on quiet tracks like Old Shep.)

Elvis Presley (released in the UK as Elvis Presley Rock n' Roll) is the debut studio album by Elvis Presley. It was released on RCA Victor, in mono, catalogue number LPM 1254, in March 1956. The recording sessions took place on January 10 and January 11 at RCA recording studios in Nashville, Tennessee, and on January 30 and January 31 at RCA studios in New York. Additional material originated from sessions at Sun Studio in Memphis, Tennessee, on July 5, August 19 and September 10 of 1954, and on July 11, 1955.

The album spent ten weeks at number 1 on the Billboard Top Pop Albums chart in 1956, the first rock and roll album ever to make it to the top of the charts, and logically the first million-selling album of that genre. In 2003, it was ranked number 56 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.Elvis Presley was also one of three Presley albums accoladed in the reference book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die, the others being Elvis Is Back! and From Elvis in Memphis. It was certified Gold on November 1, 1966 and Platinum on August 8, 2011 by the Recording Industry Association of America

I will be listing records etc. from my collection from time to time and you can be assured that the condition will always be very good to excellent. I do not usually use mint as that would only be on a new item.

There may be slight paper scuffs or hairlines - if you require further condition reports please just ask.

I would not sell anything which I would not be happy to purchase myself and you can view my great feedback for peace of mind.

Thank you for looking and happy bidding.

IF YOU REQUIRE SIGNED FOR OR INSURED DELIVERY PLEASE ASK FOR AN INVOICE. NO CLAIMS CAN BE MADE UNLESS THE ITEM IS INSURED.
