Gold and Platinum Records

Following is a list of the 150 Elvis albums, singles and extended-plays whose American sales, as of January 2005, have received gold, platinum or multi-platinum designations from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Sales requirements for gold and platinum status have changed through the years. This list of certifications is based upon current standards: 500,000 copies for a gold single or album, 1 million copies for a platinum single or album.

For the RIAA to award gold or platinum certifications, an artist's record company must submit sales figures and request the certifications. RCA Records continues to document Elvis' ongoing record sales and continues to research past sales and seek appropriate RIAA certifications. This listing will be updated whenever there is new information.

Further explanation of the status of Elvis' record sales and gold & platinum record award certifications is found in the Elvis FAQ section of our web site.

(For double or multiple disc albums/CD packages, each disc's sales are counted. For instance, a 5-disc box set goes gold after selling 100,000 sets as 5 discs X 100,000 sets sold = 500,000 discs sold.)
