Before I reveal my list from the 1970's, I will try to focus on the ones he did in the studio. As most know, he spent a good part of the time in concert. Good money generator (especially Col. Parker), but a lack of creativity of pure material.

Final words
This is not all of them, just blurting on my part. Not bad, is it? I did not include, for the most part, his gospel or christmas music because they are almost a given by fans and non-fans alike.
I am not the world's biggest Elvis expert, but I can answer almost any questions that you may have. Your best shot of getting the information you might need is Rockin' Ron Cade, host of the "Elvis and Friends Radio Show", heard every Sunday morning from 7-10 AM on 98.1, WOGL-FM, in Philadelphia. You can go to www.wogl.com to e-mail him. It is a great station to listen to.
I will share more Elvis stuff , as time allows me. As Elvis would say, "Thank you, you're a beautiful audience. Thank you very much."

Nice list there. You did forget a couple of tracks re-released or re-recorded after he died. I remember that in the late 1970's, "There's A Honky Tonk Angel (Who'll Take Me Back Home Was)" was a hit and the re-recorded "Guitar Man" was a hit in 1981. I had forgotten all about the Elvis Medley from 1982!
