This is the great Elvis Presley Extended Play (EP) or depending on year of release and branding, the Economy Package catalog. The EP prefix is generally EPA, with a couple of notable exceptions. Many were only released once. Others were later reissued on the Gold Standard Series label, with the same prefix and new catalog number. Some guides would organize the EP collection by their title, which, where applicable, would combine the original release with their Gold Standard reissue. This EP guide, however, will reference each release by their unique catalog number. This catalog is sorted by release.
This is the great Elvis Presley LP catalog organized by original release date. Many of this LP catalog had been re-released using different release numbers and covers. Up until 1959 the the LPs were released only in "Long Play" monaural. The new releases were released simultaneously in both monaural and stereo. From 1962 through 1965, the re-released LPs of the 1950s were issued in both monaural and Electronically Reprocessed Stereo, hence the postfix of "(e)" at the end of the selection number. By 1968, the monaural releases were phased out completely, except for a couple of titles. This guide is organized by release date and catalog number. For example, even though the monaural releases of Elvis' Christmas Album was made available from 1959 through 1968, it will only show as the original release date and the contents will detail the record throughout the life of the release.
This is the great Elvis Presley 45 catalog organized by original release date. Unlike the original pressings of the LPs, the 45s, with the prefix of "47-" were only released once. Many were later re-released on the Gold Standard Series label, with the prefix of "447-" and new catalog number. From their beginning to the the early 1970s, 45s were released in monaural format to accommodate for radio stations that had not converted to stereo. In some rare releases, the 45 was released simultaneously with the prefix of "61-" in "LIVING STEREO". Later, RCA changed their prefixes. This catalog is sorted by release.
