The value of an Elvis record can vary greatly. Conditions to consider are how old it is, the condition of the record itself (and how well it plays), condition of the sleeve, whether or not it still has any inserts or extras that came with it, the rarity of the record (the fewer available in the world, the more valuble), the record label is was recorded under and how desirable it is to the record collecting community. There are alot of record pricing books available in any bookstore, but they can only give an estimate as the record collecting market changes alot. Some people are willing to shell out alot of money for a record they want very badly, whereas others wouldn't pay much of anything for it. It really depends on your buyer.

She was 42 years old.

I'm sorry but that is incorrect. people assume she was the same age as Elvis was, but she was not.

As a writer of over 35 years, I searched my extensive records from articles I previously wrote, and Gladys Love Presley was 46, when she died of a heart attack, due to complications of Hepatitis-possibly from her weight- then there were accounts that she also drank, which matters not- If you subtract 1912 from 1958, it makes it 46- she had just had her birthday and turned 46, when she passed on almost 4 months later.Birth: Apr. 25, 1912Death:

Aug. 14, 1958

Information taken from a legal copy of her death certificate.

Elvis was in his teenage years and in his 20

Sony RCA owns the music book of Elvis Presley.

it was released in 1956 Elvis Presley

Yes he did. Especially from black artist like Chuck Berry. Many white artists did it at this time because black artists were not recognized in mainstream music.

Elvis' only arrest occurred on April 3, 1955 for speeding in "excess of 80 miles an hour" in Louisiana in the Caddo Parrish. Elvis paid the $25.00 fee/bail and apologized to the Police Officer who he informed he was "on the way back from a Houston gig". Scott Moore and Bill Black were in the Cadillac Elvis was driving at the time.

Intimacy pertains to affections shared between people who are familiar with one another; this can vary between light pecks and hugs for family and friends to passionate kisses, embraces, and tokens of affection for partners and lovers.

If you mean when they met she was 14 1/2. They met in November 1959 at a party at Elvis' off-base residence in Bad Nauheim in Germany. She moved to Graceland in 1963, got engaged in 1966 and married in 1967. She gave birth to Lisa Marie in 1968.

Elvis trading cards produced after his death are virtually worthless from a monetary standpoint. The ones I'm thinking of, made by "boxcar enterprises" were mass produced in 1978, and a full set (all 66) fetch as much as 10 bucks on ebay. That said, they certainly have a 70's charm about them and are fun own just as conversation pieces. Long live the king.

Elvis Presley was 32 years old when he married Priscilla on May 1, 1967.

Elvis played gospel songs, the blues, and a country(he used an acoustic guitar) so

he wasn't really the king of rock and roll when he didn't play much.

He drove a truck for them...as a matter of fact it was on a lunch break that Elvis went into Sun Studios to record a record for his Mothers birthday ...Thats Alright Mama

It has been said he was in rehab for brief stints, but they were very private. I believe he wanted it. He needed it bad. He had so much pain in his last years he took drugs to kill the pain, but it wouldn't work. Very sad.

Elvis not only revolutionized the music industry by creating what we all call Rock N' Roll, but it also became a sex icon. He made performance an entirely new thing. Instead of having a band and synchronized movements, he actually began to dance and interact with audiences. He was sexy. He made women pass out and scream and cry. People hated him and thought he was inappropriate, but really he helped the world see a new kind of music and a new way of life. He also served in the military, so you can also say he helped peoples lives by fighting for their freedom.

No but she was at graceland just not in the room he died in. one of the paramedics who was present at the death of Elvis claimed that Lisa Marie said don't worry my daddy isn't dead he told me he wasnt Lisa Marie denies ever saying that

Yep, she did a "live" duet performance of it in Los Angeles with James Cleveland in the early 70s. She released the performance on her "Amazing Grace" album, which was the the best-selling Gospel album for decades. It has sold over a one million copies. That was a major feat, and used to be unprecedented for Gospel artists.

Before Elvis Presley died he had 18 number ones, butafter his death, he had 17 number ones.

Elvis made an estimated $4.5 billion although he spent freely and frivolously and was only worth about $7 million at the time of his death. So by celebrity standards Elvis had only modest wealth at the time of his death.

Elvis Presley has sold over 1.5 billion albums. Elvis has sold more albums then any other singer or group in the history of music.

Elvis, the king of rock and roll, was amongst the first stars of modern music in the 1950s. He was perhaps the first superstar of the new age of entertaiment. Elvis Presley had a unique singing voice, and was capable of entertaining (sublimely!) with that alone. Couple his gift of voice and style of music with his entry into entertainment at a unique time and place and possibilities abound. Perhaps with a bit of luck, but with enormous talent, character and charisma, he became the superstar and legend he is recognized as being, as cited in the first post.

He was known as the king of rock and roll because he invented the style of music.

Well, I'm not sure I'd use the word "Invented" here. Elvis Presley was a famous and very popular singer from the mid 50s until the era of the Beatles, and then in the latter 60s he made a bit of a comeback. He died in 1977 of a drug overdose/heart attack.

Presley was one of the first white singers to sing in what was called 'colored' style, or "race music", as they called it back then - in other words, he sounded black when he sang. He was from Tupelo, Mississippi, and was no doubt influenced by black jazz, rhythm & blues, and gospel music of his day.

He became a huge star and had, or I should say, still has, a huge, fanatical following all over the world. He made a dozen or so movies in the early 60s that also helped him become a movie star as well.

He was 'managed', if not completely controlled, by a publicity agent/manager named "Colonel Parker". Parker managed nearly every facet of Presley's public life - even down to selecting the songs he would record.

One unique thing about Presley is that he never wrote any songs or music himself - he always sang other people's songs.

The era of the Beatles and the British Invasion had a chilling effect on his career - and he was often publicly derogatory about the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and other groups he blamed for his 'fall-off'. He did make a bit of a comeback after a TV special in 1968 but the magic had gone - plus, his original fans were now 15 years older than they were when he first came out.

In his later years, he became a bit of recluse, gaining a lot of weight and suffering from depression and bouts of drug and pain-killer dependency. He died in 1977 in his Memphis mansion, Graceland.
