Elvis Presley Music Hits

Elvis Presley music hits topped the charts way back in the 1950s, and they are still big sellers all these years later, and over 30 years after the premature death of Elvis.

How many other pop music artists can match this achievement? Not for nothing is Elvis often just referred to as "The King" - the king of rock 'n' roll.

No longer are the fans driven wild by his live performance trademark moves - controversial actions back then, that had him known as "Elvis the Pelvis" - but the images linger on. He broke the ice in many ways, paving the way for pop music as we know it today.

In later years Elvis adopted a jumpsuit as his main stage costume. Click the link to read more about the background to the elvis jumpsuit.

Graceland

Memphis, Tennessee

Elvis built Graceland, his mansion in Memphis, as a secure retreat for himself and his family as his fame and fortune grew. Such was the passion of his fan base, he needed a place to escape from the constant pressures when on tour.

Elvis was eventually buried at Graceland. It remains in family ownership, and has become a place of pilgrimage for Elvis fans.

Elvis Presley's Autograph

Autographs - original - signed by Elvis Presley

The ultimate Elvis Presley memorabilia item is his signature. Sometimes they are found as signed photographs, sometimes on letters, sometimes in autograph books. Some are to be found on records or other products, or even on clothing! Obviously there will be no more, so original Elvis Presley autographs are a valuable and much sought after collectible item. As they end up in the collections of serious collectors, fewer and fewer original Elvis autographs will reach the market.
