Elvis Presley and Billboard chart/album/single/genres

COURTESY of Billboard as of January 8 2015 (and January 8th was the date Elvis was born on in 1935)

Elvis Presley wasn't just the King of Rock & Roll. He remains Billboard chart royalty. On the anniversary of the Jan. 8, 1935 birthday of the late icon, who passed away on Aug. 16, 1977, here's a look back at five of his most impressive chart records.

- 108 Billboard Hot 100 hits, the most among rock artists in the chart's history. Among all acts, only the Glee cast (207) and Lil Wayne (123) have inked more charted hits. Presley's career, however, predates the Hot 100's 1958 inception; he charted more than 30 song entries on surveys that chronicled popular music beginning in 1956. Notably, Presley's 104th Hot 100 hit, "Way Down," originally peaked at No. 31 the weeks of Aug. 6 and 13, 1977. After dipping to No. 53, following Presley's death, the song roared 35-24-21-18, marking his last top 20 track.

- 80 top 40 Hot 100 hits, the most such showings in the tally's archives. Drake ranks second with 67, followed by Elton John (57). On the first Hot 100, dated Aug. 4, 1958, Presley ranked at No. 4 with "Hard Headed Woman" and at No. 34 with "Don't Ask Me Why," each featuring his longtime gospel backing band, the Jordanaires.

- 129 Billboard 200 charted albums, the highest total in the chart's 58-year history. (Frank Sinatra ranks second with 82 entries.) Ten of those sets reached No. 1, beginning with Elvis Presley, which ruled for 10 weeks in 1956. His most recent reign came courtesy of Elv1s: 30 #1 Hits in 2002 (nearly a half-century after his first No. 1).

- 67 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, the most time spent at the top for a solo act. Garth Brooks follows with 52 frames (or, an entire year) in charge, one week ahead of Michael Jackson (51). Presley's longest reign? The Blue Hawaii soundtrack totaled 20 weeks at No. 1, beginning in December 1961.

- Presley became the first rock artist to make two trips to the Hot 100 summit, as "Stuck on You" began a four-week command April 30, 1960. That song, recorded shortly after Presley's discharge from the Army, followed "A Big Hunk O' Love," which led the Aug. 15, 1959, chart. Presley last perched atop the Hot 100 with "Suspicious Minds" the week of Nov. 1, 1969. (In another sign of how much Presley and Billboard charts have been linked, that date doubles as Billboard's birthday; the magazine first published the week of Nov. 1, 1894 - This date of 1894 has to be an error as Billboard did not become a magazine until 1956).

Incredible sources for all things Elvis (Presley)

In these (approximately) six decades I've come across the entire spectrum of people, documents, photographs, videos, audio files, records, films, tv appearances, personal life, friends of, family of, etc. pertaining to Elvis Presley onstage and off.

I have had the honor of knowing so many people who were close to Elvis throughout his life. I found out early on that each of these individuals held honorable qualities and thus earned Elvis' love and friendship.

There are so many falsehoods, half-truths, erroneous statements, etc. about Elvis and unless you are able to truly source (i.e. to be able to go to the firsthand individuals who were there - who witnessed - who documented - who remembered) and/or seek out quality individuals/websites/blogs/authors/etc. that you can easily be overwhelmed with manushya.

Here are some of the individuals, websites, etc. that I HIGHLY RECOMMEND and that is saying a lot for when it comes to Elvis, and his unique life story, I put a premium on facts and context all the while embracing Elvis' faults along with every other aspect of his personality, life, accomplishments, etc.

Elvis Presley and the women he dated

Alanna Nash, the esteemed author who has written several exceptional books about Elvis' life onstage and off, wrote "Baby, Let's Play House Elvis Presley and the women who loved him.

The story, facts, insights, firsthand accounts, etc. that are contained in the book Alanna Nash wrote should be the "go to book" concerning Elvis and the women he dated.

A summary, and availability, of this book is found in the Amazon link http://www.amazon.com/Baby-Lets-Play-House-Presley/dp/0061699853 http://www.amazon.com/Baby-Lets-Play-House-Presley/dp/0061699853

Many of the women who Elvis dated have written their own books, stories, etc. and/or provided their personal stories to authors such as Alanna Nash. They include but are not limited to Dixie Locke, June Juanico, Barbara Hearn, Anita Wood, Margit Buergin, Elisabeth Stefaniak, and Joan Blackman, Also Elvis dated, and by all accounts loved, Ann Margret, and Linda Thompson.

There are varying accounts pertaining to Elvis' relationship with Ginger Alden but the facts are; they dated, she lived with Elvis at Graceland, Elvis interacted with her and her family members, Ginger went "on the road" with Elvis for his live concert appearances, Ginger went with Elvis on his last vacation, and that Ginger Alden accompanied Elvis, and participated in, the signing/execution of his last will. Priscilla, who Elvis married, of course dated Elvis.

I would be remiss if I didn't include the relationships Elvis had with Sandie Kaye Stevens (who first met Elvis at the age of 13 and is a great asset to the "Elvis Presley community worldwide" as well as a wonderful human being), Patti Perry (who was thought of as part of Elvis' Memphis Mafia) , and Kathy Westmoreland (who has an incredible voice along and toured with Elvis for years).

Each of these women were beautiful. They were witty. They had feelings. They were with Elvis during exciting times in his life as well as the "downs" in his life. They warranted Elvis' affections. They each have a story that is uniquely their own.

I encourage Elvis Presley fans worldwide to seek out these women, pertaining to their lives with Elvis and otherwise, and support their personal and professional endeavors. They were firsthand witnesses to history...literally. To buy, and read, books concerning these women one gains insights into the "person" named Elvis Presley that can't be duplicated.

Take care and may God bless you.
