Elvis Presley 33 1/3 RPM Record Guide (US) Matrix

is-40b-frontThis is a listing of official US Elvis Presley releases through RCA records. I have read through considerable amounts of literature, various auctions and other resources to compile the following matrix or cheat sheet. This list is a checklist and is as complete as time will tell.

Exceptions do exist, as in the case of Kissin’ Cousins available with a MONO DYNAGROOVE label, Today with tan label, Elvis Sings The Wonderful World Of Christmas with tan label or It Happened at the Worlds Fair with orange label.

This matrix lists all releases from the first run through the final run using the original RCA catalog numbers. This chart does not include re-releases or re-issues with alternate catalog numbers or releases after 1977.

Note the distinction of LSP(e) over the LSP prefix for the early Elvis releases. The (e) means that the original monaural recordings were Electronically Reproduced into stereo. Incidentally, there are undocumented variations in these releases where LSP-1254(e) was released as LSP-1254. This however, is a production error in labeling. It should be noted that the contents on the vinyl are the same. Later Elvis releases would be released simultaneously in true stereo and in monaural.
