Welcome to elvisrecords.com! This site exists to serve the Elvis Presley record collector community as an online guide, gallery and visual reference for all collectors and as a companion to fill the void of the all-text price guides. In the case of LPs, where price guides associate a specific cover to a specific record label and specific inner sleeve; this site generalizes this considerably as having sorted through 1000s of Elvis records, there are many variations that are not documented using that method.
The focus of this site is specifically U.S. releases. It is by no means the most comprehensive and complete reference guide available; however, this site offers information that is found nowhere else. One of the goals is to provide as much detail possible, including documented and undocumented variations for regular and promotional release 45s, 78s, EPs, and LPs during the life of Elvis Presley. Releases after August 1977 will most likely not be found in this guide, save a few exceptions.
The majority of the images used on this site are from exhaustive collections of records and library of Internet images collected throughout the years and through significant input from collectors and contributors as referenced. In rare cases, some images are manufactured from known material to serve as reference and are referenced as “mock-ups”.
There are many people whom have contributed to this site with their knowledge, pictures, and corrections and they are all listed in the footnotes to each of the pages. We are greatly appreciative of all of their contributions. We would like to take a moment to express our gratitude to Neal Umphred for recent observations that help keep this site honest. His recent observations and editorial experience has provided significant contributions towards a more accurate Elvis Presley discography.
