Good Rockin' Tonight

Following is a statement issued by Sony/BMG (RCA Records label) for the awards presentation at Graceland:

Today is an incredibly exciting day for all of us as we celebrate with our partners at EPE and Elvis fans around the world another successful milestone. We are proud to announce that, "Good Rockin Tonight," recorded at historic Sun Studio 50 years ago, has been certified Gold by the RIAA. As you may remember, his first single "That's All Right" was certified gold last July. We proudly present this plaque to Elvis Presley Enterprises to commemorate one more sales milestone. Expect many more to come in 2005. As a result of this certification, Elvis Presley surpasses 50 million in US singles sales and is therefore placed in history as the artist with more certified singles than anyone in music history. On Behalf of BMG, we sincerely Thank YOU all so much for making all this possible! Look forward to many more certifications over the course of the year.
