    A Question For You All.......

    Who Can Tell Me Just How Many Songs Elvis Recorded During His Lifetime.
    I Have Always Been Curious As I Have Been Given Different Answers To This Question? Someone told me 700

    Thanks

    I think it's 750 masters and if you take all the songs Elvis recorded live and all the live versions of his hits it's like 3,000 songs

    If you include all the one liners and alternate verisons and live recordings, then it's over 1,200. If you mean just studio masters then it's about 800.

    750 masters...? I had a list of 700 only
    Let the stars fade and fall, and I won't care at all, as long as I have you.

    I guess Gospel would be amongst the songs Elvis would record; it's a very good question, though

    I would also love to know who he would enjoy listening to.

    Good stats you've created!


    Just pretend, I'm holding you, and whispering things soft and low.
    And think of me, how it's gonna be and just pretend I didn't go
