Elvis Presley Elvis' Golden Records No.1

Compilation of Hit Songs By the King Released on High Quality Pure Analogue 180g Virgin Vinyl LP! Audiophile Remastering!
"Have we got the lot?" The King of Rock 'n' Roll certainly didn't need to ask whether his entourage had collected together all their favorite hits. They had gathered them all together - a collection of "Golden Records", rather like a selection box of favorite chocolates, greedily swallowed down and enjoyed to the full. And how they loved them all - whether 'complete works' collectors or fans. To this very day, this collection from 1958 is quite set apart from the normal 'best of' collections. It shines out like a precious jewel among mere pebbles. This was the first of four Gold volumes, and it set the standard for those to come. Before any of the immemorable songs came to be included, they had to have sold at least a million copies and won an undeniable and unforgettable reputation as a heart-string plucker. To name a title is more than superfluous. It's quite enough just to listen and enjoy. Whoever wants the ultimate basic Elvis collection can't go wrong here.
"Are they all together?" So directly, the court of King Elvis did not even have to ask the subjects about the completeness of their personal tracklists. Because even so, the hits densely packed as Golden Records, such as selections of the finest chocolates from well-known confectionery, were quickly incorporated into the collections of complete aficionados, donors and recipients. Then as now, this compilation from 1958 has absolutely nothing of the disgraceful best-off mixture attached to it, but basks self-confidently in the shining glow of the sacred original. As the first gold volume, followed by four more, this collection sets standards: Because before one of the immortalized songs was allowed into the treasure chest, it had to have sold at least a million copies and gained a reputation that reverberates forever in the heaven of heart-aching rock'n'roll. There is no need to mention the titles. Reading them with pleasure is enough. If you want the ultimate Elvis basic equipment, this is the right place for you – and the Elvis fan and collector anyway.
