It’s February seventeenth, and on this day in 1960, Elvis Presley was awarded a Gold record for his self-titled debut album, *Elvis Presley*. Originally released in 1956, the album made history as the first Rock ‘n’ Roll LP to top the Billboard Top Pop Albums chart, holding the number one spot for an astonishing ten weeks. This milestone not only cemented Elvis’s status as the new king of popular music but also marked a turning point in the mainstream acceptance of rock and roll.
