ARTIST BACKGROUND

About Elvis Presley

Elvis Presley's early records brought country, blues, gospel, R&B and pop into a new rock-and-roll setting during the 1950s. His singing and physical stage style helped carry that mixture to a large audience. His career also moved through film work, ballad singing and later concert performances, so the familiar early rock records represent only one part of his repertoire. Gospel and quieter vocal interpretations continued alongside the more rhythmic material associated with his breakthrough.
