  • "Nearly 50 years after Presley made his first hit record and 25 years after his death, ELV1S 30 #1 Hits reached number 1 on the charts, edging him ahead of The Beatles as the group with the largest number of Number One hits."

I have some problems with this sentence. While I understand that Elvis' chart success so long after his career was over is surprising, the way introductory phrase is worded makes it sound like it's coming from a fan site.

More problematic is the vagueness. "ELV1S 30 #1 Hits reached number 1 on the charts" - What charts? "edging him ahead of The Beatles as the group with the largest number of Number One hits" - How many? Were they previously tied? Aren't "hits" singles? "A Little Less Conversation" didn't reach #1 in the US. Again, the most "hits" where?

I think this section needs to be made clearer before it goes back in the article.
