Strictly Elvis is an extended play (EP) by American singer and musician Elvis Presley released in January 1960. It peaked at number one in the number-one EPs chart in the United Kingdom and was five weeks in the number-one, until it was superseded by Expresso Bongo, which became number-one in April 23, 1960.
