RCA 47  7740                        Black Label – Dog On Top

 

Side A.  Stuck On You

Side B.  Fame And Fortune

 

"Stuck On You" was number 1 on the Hot 100 chart for four weeks, it was on the chart for fourteen weeks, it numbered 6 on the R&B chart, it remained on this chart for nine weeks. "Fame And Fortune" numbered 17 on the Hot 100 chart, and remained on the chart for ten weeks. With advance orders of 1,275,077 copies Elvis’ first post-army single set a new record, so “Stuck On You” was Elvis’ 25th million seller, before it had even been recorded. Since RCA wanted the single out fast, a sleeve without song titles was prepared. A die-cut hole showed the label with the titles. This was the first Elvis single to be released in both mono and stereo.

 This 45 entered the UK chart on April 13th 1960 on RCA 1187, it would reach the number 3 slot.
