COMING SOON!
TO A SCREEN NEAR YOU

An all NEW se­ries of up­dated and rewritten ar­ti­cles about the Elvis Presley Gold Stan­dard Se­ries of 45 rpm sin­gles and EP al­bums!

NEW discogra­phies – NEW la­be­l­o­gra­phies – NEW photos of some re­ally rather rare records!

Plus an all NEW, up-to-date price guide!!!

I have been busy com­pletely re­vamping the se­ries of nine ar­ti­cles I wrote about Elvis’ Gold Stan­dard sin­gles and pic­ture sleeves and the new ar­ti­cles will be so, so, so much better:

More com­plete.
More ac­cu­rate.
More in­ter­esting.

And I have more help from more col­lec­tors this time. Here are a few im­ages to tease you into wanting more:

 

This is the browser box used to dis­play the first Elvis Gold Stan­dard orig­inal re­lease, Kiss Me Quick / Sus­pi­cion, re­leased in April 1964. The box also dis­plays the spe­cial reis­sues of five older Gold Stan­dard sin­gles, each in a brand, spanking new pic­ture sleeve. A col­lector pur­chased this box in like-new con­di­tion on eBay a few years ago and he gra­ciously took photos of it for these ar­ti­cles.

 

This is the super-rare red label reissue of I Feel So Bad / Wild In The Country. When I wrote the orig­inal Gold Stan­dard Se­ries ar­ti­cles four years ago, I couldn’t even prove this record ex­isted! But an­other gra­cious col­lector sent me these photos and two others of an equally rare red label record.

WHO ARE THESE GUYS?!!?

Read the ar­ti­cles as I pub­lish them and find out. There will be at least ten ar­ti­cles in the se­ries. I’d tell you more but—Hell’s Belles!—I haven’t even de­cided on a col­lec­tive title for them.

PS: If you have been redi­rected here from one of my older ar­ti­cles about Elvis’ Gold Stan­dard 45s, it’s be­cause I don’t want you reading old and mis­leading in­for­ma­tion.
