When Elvis Broke is the 1950s, playing music by black artists on main-stream radio was very much taboo especially in the Southern states. It was thought to be too sexual or something along those lines. Because Elvis sounded "black" many of these same stations refused to play his music.
Burning Love, Hound Dog and Suspicious Minds are some of Elvis Presley's best songs.

To set the record strait, Elvis Presley did write 2 songs he recorded. You'll be gone-1961 That's someone you'll never forget -1962. Source: Jorgensen, Ernst. Elvis by the Presleys. Liner Notes. BMG Heritage, 2005. The man who wrote most of Elvis Presley's songs was a black man named Otis Blackwell, who died penniless. Edit- Elvis only recorded 10 Otis Blackwell songs from 1956-1962. Blackwell was a successful producer as well as a writer, he did NOT die penniless He's certainly better known as a singer/performer rather than a singer/songwriter.

The list of songs on the Elvis Costello wiki at elviscostello.info lists 748 songs that were "recorded by Elvis Costello, including songs by other artists that feature Elvis on vocals, and songs written by Elvis Costello, recorded and released by others."
