About this album

Elvis is the explosive debut album that turned Elvis Presley into rock and roll’s first global superstar. Released in 1956, it captured the raw crossover power of his early RCA years, when country, rhythm and blues and pop were colliding into something new. Backed by a lean, driving band and anchored by his unmistakable voice, the record pairs hard-charging performances with aching ballads, showing why Presley became the defining figure of early rock & roll. Its huge commercial success helped establish the album as a serious pop statement, not just a singles format, and made Elvis a cultural force far beyond the South.
