'Summer Nights' June '74 FTD CANCELLED!: In an extraordinary move FTD have cancelled their recently announced “ELVIS: Summer Nights” - until later in the year.
This is no doubt due to the unavoidable fan discussion over the use of bad 'AI' images of Elvis being shown in their publicity. These were obviously fake and yet about to be used by Elvis' official fan club label! It is being delayed until a no-doubt better package will be announced. Pre-Orders are being held for the updated version.
Released as a 4-CD 5” digipak,
the concerts are all Evening Shows, Des Moines June 20 1974, Philadelphia June 23, Columbus June 25 and Milwaukee June 28, 1974.
All previously unreleased soundboards except for Milwaukee June 28 on bootleg. EIN Note: FTD have previously released nine concerts from the same tour, Fort Worth June 15 E/S, June 16 - Afternoon Show, June 16 ES, Baton Rouge June 17, Amarillo June 19, Cleveland June 21, Omaha June 30 (both shows) & Omaha July 1, 1974

'Elvis & the Story of the 68 Special' Reissue Out Now: Simon Goddard's 'Elvis & the Story of the 68 Special' 2026 REISSUE has been released – but not until June 16, 2026 on Amazon-USA for some reason. The book was originally published in 2018. The book from Omnibus Press contain 368 pages and is in hardcover, softcover and Kindle formats. The book description:
.. As 1968 dawns, the once King of rock'n'roll faces cultural oblivion. While elsewhere the Sixties are swinging, for Elvis they're sinking- in terrible films, drug addiction, paranoia, religious mania and the mercenary wiles of his psychopathic manager. In the words of the hip young director assigned to his first TV special, Elvis' reputation was "in the toilet." However the same director, Steve Binder, was now about to save it. Together they would embark on the biggest creative fight of Elvis' life. The Comeback plots the incredible true story of Elvis' fall and rise from Army discharge to iconic black leather resurrection. Simon Goddard takes the reader inside the life, music and mind of Elvis, isolated from an America unravelling in its own Sixties chaos of war, racism, riots and assassinations, until his world and theirs collide in the greatest performance of his life.
A genre-busting modernist rock'n'roll fable unlike any music biography you've ever read, The Comeback is the definitive account of how it took Elvis eight years on the big screen to lose his crown - but just one magical hour on a small one to win it back.

Paul McCartney Talks Elvis: While promoting his new album on BBC Radio Sir Paul McCartney also talked about meeting Elvis. Paul and the other Beatles famously met Elvis for the first and only time in 1965 when the group visited his residence in Los Angeles.
Reminiscing about his days in the band McCartney hailed his experience meeting Presley and his wife Priscilla.
He said, “Elvis was really great. He was a very handsome guy – but we kind of knew that. We were fans.
We just followed everything he did, and we looked at any photo we could get. He wasn’t a disappointment at all.
I say that we rang the doorbell and Elvis came to the door and said, ‘come in guys’.
He invited us in and we sat around and he had a jukebox, and played Charlie Rich's 'Mohair Sam' 45rpm.
Elvis had a bass there and he was talking about the bass so we could talk, sort of, bass talk. He was great, very personable, very nice.
He had a bunch of his minders with him – and you read stuff later, and I think they were mainly his cousins, his gang."
He described meeting the singer’s wife, Priscilla, as a “highlight” and said: “You’re inviting four guys into your home – probably the last thing you need is them to be all over your wife. It was great, she was great, Elvis was great.”
He told host BBC host Vernon Kay: “You pinch yourself. I met – I actually sat with, like I’m sitting with you, Elvis.” EIN Note: Paul's late wife Linda McCartney would buy Bill Black's "Heartbreak Hotel" double-bass for Paul as a birthday present.

'Elvis Meets The Beatles': "It was fifty years ago today"... on August 27, 1965 An EIN spotlight on this famous night in 1965 when the Fab Four finally met the King. In 1965 The Beatles manager Brian Epstein initiated contact with Colonel Parker, and the decision was made that on the night of August 27, the Beatles would come to Elvis’ home for an informal get-together. Intensive security arrangements were worked out, and it was agreed that no press would be involved and no pictures would be taken or recordings made of whatever happened.
"So many things could have gone wrong," says Jerry Schilling, "If Colonel and Brian hadn’t gotten along, it wouldn’t have gotten past the phone-call stage. But there were no ego battles, and from the start it was approached as a pair of music greats coming together out of admiration for each other."
'The Joan Deary Tapes – Volume 1' Import: EIN asks, "What is going on here?” A bootleg label copying another bootleg label's idea which was fake in the first place?
The unstoppable bootleg 'Knock Out Records' announce "The release of “The Joan Deary Tapes – Volume 1”, a double album packed with rare studio and live outtakes from the personal collection of the late Joan Deary.
Newly remastered from the original tapes, this release offers the best sound quality these recordings have ever had.
Take a look at our flyer for more details, and check out the full tracklist.
EIN Note: See EIN's previous discussion about “The Joan Deary Tapes- Has Ernst Won the War?"- and there seems to be nothing in this new release that hasn't by now been officially released. Buyer Beware

Broken Vessel (David E. Stanley) book update: David Stanley’s new book has a publication date of December 15, 2026.
The book description: ... “'Broken Vessel' is David E. Stanley’s deeply personal narrative and powerful testament to the unwavering love, grace, and redemption of God. This candid memoir chronicles David’s tumultuous journey growing up on tour with his stepbrother Elvis Presley, his divine calling to ministry at the tender age of 12, and his eventual surrender to that ministry in the tumultuous years following Elvis' death.
..It meticulously details David’s struggles with debilitating depression and feelings of unworthiness, which led him to abandon his ministerial calling and flee from God, convinced that a soul as damaged as his could not possibly be of use to the divine.
.. Above all, Broken Vessel is a poignant testament to the eternal love of God for humanity, and how, through the redemptive power of His Son Jesus Christ, we can find forgiveness, healing, and restoration to fulfill His divine purpose in our lives.”
The current book cover is surprising! EIN Note: Back in September 2025 Stanley announced that he was working on his new book 'Surviving Elvis' to be published late 2025 - which didn't happen.
Also back in March 2025 he announced his film 'One of The Boys' about the stepsons life with Elvis - which also seems to have disappeared.
He has previously published, 'My Brother Elvis: The Final Years', 'Conversations with the King: The Enduring Spiritual Legacy of Elvis Presley', 'Life With Elvis', 'Raised on Rock: Growing Up at Graceland' and 'The Elvis Encyclopedia'

"Auditorium Pandemonium" May 16 1956: Seventy years ago, May 16 1956, Elvis performed at the Robinson Auditorium in Little Rock.
Elvis' stunning 1956 performance was bootlegged as 'Elvis Rocks Little Rock' and released officially on 'Young Man With The Big Beat'
As EIN notes, "This concert captures Elvis in full flight to his screaming fans. This would be the very first tour that The Jordanaires would play with Elvis. This is possibly only their third concert with Elvis! Before the performance Elvis stated in an interview that ‘I Was The One’ was his favourite record, and in all its hiccupping glory it is a true highlight - along with the blistering ‘Money Honey’ sounding very different with Elvis bumping’n’grinding to his adoring fans!
An outstanding blast of rock’n’roll freedom with his fans screaming back.
Elvis ends with the glory of ‘Hound Dog’ but remember that this was May 1956, two months before he would record the single."
...
Under a headline reading “Elvis Cools Cats Down to a Dungaree Delium,” the Arkansas Gazette reported Presley wore a “purple coat and black silk slacks.”
Scotty Moore, Bill Black and D.J. Fontana played the show with Presley, and vocal group the Jordanaires also backed him. Eight acts appeared on the bill that night in Little Rock besides Presley, who was billed as “the Nation’s Only Atomic Powered Singer.”
There were 7 and 9:30pm shows and both were packed. Presley had been in the public eye for less than two years and was 21 years old. His single “Heartbreak Hotel” had hit No. 1 just weeks before. In fact, the announcer identifies the song as “Heartbreak Motel.”
Presley’s set is nearly complete, and the sound quality, which was probably a single microphone pointed at Robinson’s PA system, is surprisingly good.
There’s also a brief backstage interview where Elvis states, “This makes my third visit here. Little Rock’s really wonderful, especially tonight. Rock ’n’ roll has been in for about five years. ... It might change, like years ago when the Charleston was real popular, or the vaudeville acts, stuff like that. You could have told those people maybe it was going to die out, and they wouldn’t have believed you. But it’s dead now, see? Maybe four or five years from now, rock ’n’ roll will be dead.”
When interviewer Ray Green asks, ”How does it feel to be right up there on top, right with the best of them, since you are one of that class?”
Elvis replies, “It feels pretty good. It all happened so fast. I’m afraid to wake up, afraid it’s liable to be a dream, you know?
As far as rock ’n’ roll goes, I really like it, I enjoy doing it. And the people have really accepted it great. And it just makes me want to say a vow to keep giving them something they enjoy.”
"Red Elvis" - new Elvis related comic book: The brainchild of sequential artist, Scott Fry, "Red Elvis" should be arriving in comic book stores soon.
Published by Big Bear Studios (a new comic book studio), it distinguishes itself as being narratively different from most other Elvis related comic books or graphic novels, in that it features horror-slasher themes.
'EPiC Elvis Presley In Concert' Japan Trailer: Just when it seemed like the cinema and IMAX presentations of Baz Luhrmann's 'EPiC Elvis Presley In Concert' are running out of steam, Elvis fans get the delight of the Japanese version of the 'EPiC' movie trailer.
The movie is released today in Japan May 15, 2026.

‘Elvis Amarillo Texas - 1974’ MRS Review: MRS recently released ‘Elvis Amarillo Texas - On Tour 1974’ as a single Deluxe CD pack as well as 2LP Gatefold vinyl.

Elvis performed an amazing 25 concerts in just eighteen days, he was still working hard for the money and his loving fans. ‘Live On Stage In Memphis’ was recorded only 3 months earlier so there isn’t a big change of set-list but this night Elvis added the extras ‘Heartbreak Hotel’ and ‘Big Boss Man’. EIN's Piers Beagley checks this stunning MRS audio upgrade and re-discovers Elvis' best concert from his June 1974 tour. (CD Review, Source;ElvisInformationNetwork)

Six new softcover and/or Kindle books with an Elvis theme: Check Amazon sites for more details.......(note: four are in Italian)
The best cover in surely 'We Whistled in English' (Fischiettavamo In lnglese') but it's not all about Elvis..
Delightfully described as... For sixty years, Italians whistled English songs. From the record players of the 1960s to today's streaming services, we sang songs we didn't understand, danced to lyrics we'd never translated, and wrote English titles in school diaries as if they were our own words.
This book tells that story—with affection, with irony, and with the final discovery that not understanding wasn't the problem. It was the solution. 'We Whistled in English' is a journey through sixty years of Anglophone music in Italy..
From the arrival of Elvis to the Ed Sullivan Show, to the Beatles teaching us our first English words, to the Rolling Stones singing things Italian parents never wanted to hear. From Dylan blowing in the American wind while we only heard the wind, to Pink Floyd, to Madonna, Duran Duran and more..

'A Cat Talks Back' Elvis In Las Vegas April-May 1956: 70 years ago the local newspaper the Las Vegas SUN posted some rather negative reviews of Elvis' 2-week stint at the The New Frontier Hotel which included...
"Elvis Presley, arriving here on the wave of tremendous publicity, fails to hit the promised mark in a desert isle surfeited with rock and rollers who play in shifts atop every cocktail lounge on the Strip. The brash, loud braying of his rhythm and blues catalog which albeit rocketed him to the big time, is overbearing to a captive audience... For the teenagers, the long, tall Memphis lad is a whiz; for the average Vegas spender or show-goer, a bore. His musical sound with a combo of three is uncouth, matching to a great extent the lyric content of his nonsensical songs."
On May 12 1956, 70 years ago, the Sun paper printed this fabulous reply to their recent reviews.. 'Mostly about Mr. Elvis Presley, Esq'
I will try to bravely carry on after reading the report of the SUN's reporter concerning Mr. Elvis Presley now holding forth at the Venus Room of the Hotel New Frontier. I'm not after the teen-age vote or to sell Portia's pound of flesh. I come not to bury Caesar, but to praise him. It is a weakness of the mind to preconceive a judgment of your thought before the act is done. And so McDuff, play on.
Despite the acid hemlock broth stirred by the Sun's copy boy methinks Mr. Presley will survive and live to sing some more. Not that for many moons to come his name will be well known about the countryside.
Perhaps this cat should have studied grand opera, the fiddle or just be satisfied herding a truck. I don't join that school of thought. He's happy and he's making lots of other people happy doing just what he is doing naturally. You see, he's a natural. Any dope knows what a natural is.
This cat Presley is neat, well gassed and has the heart.
His vocal is real and he has yet to go for an open field. He is hep to the motion of sound with a retort that is tremendous. These squares who like to detract their imagined mis-values can only size a note creeping upstairs after dark. This cat can throw 'em downstairs or even out the window.
He has it ... Presley has a depth of tone that can sink deeper than a well. He can wilt into a whisper faster than a gossip-monger can throw down a free drink. He is classier than a new sock and a skinner on the strings. He really makes them cry. He's a smooth cast, cool and crazy with new stuff. His sound is dreamy and unique, loaded with mystery.
So settle down dad. Take your cow straight. Wipe the blood out of your eye. I still got your coat. Music shines in anything that sounds. Youth is an exuberant stage of life with the top down.
Presley's voice is that of American youth looking at the moon and wondering how long it will take to get there. He is not a Rock 'n' Roller nor is he a cowboy singer. He is something new coming over the horizon all by himself and he deserves his ever-growing audience. Nobody should miss him. Parents would do well to take their children to hear him. It would be a good way to get to know and understand your own kids.
Yep, this boy's sails are set and he's got wind. Good luck boy and the best of everything.
I hope they hold you over! After all ten million cats can't be wrong. - - - by Ed Jameson (News, Source;Las Vegas SUN/ElvisInfoNet)

The Second Coming of Elvis: The Untold Story of Elvis Presley's Forgotten Son (Paul Reginald Graziosi): This new release will appeal to those with an interest in Elvis conspiracy theories. It is available in softcover (283 pages) and Kindle (326 pages) formats.
This book is a work of "faction" (fiction based on facts).
The book description:
.... “Elvis left the building in 1977. He may have left a son behind. For decades, the whispers echoed across green rooms, dive bars, and recording studios: "Have you heard that guy? He sounds just like Elvis." But for John Dennis Smith, it was never an act. It was who he believed he was.
For more than fifty years, John has lived with a question he cannot answer. He has Elvis Presley's voice. He has Elvis Presley's face. And in his Arizona home, he keeps what he believes to be the Presley family Bible. The Second Coming of Elvis is the result of twenty-five years of investigation by author Paul Reginald Graziosi. What began as a chance meeting on a church stage in Scottsdale became a quarter-century quest to answer a single question:
“Is John Smith the forgotten son of the King of Rock and Roll?

'EPiC Original Soundtrack' CD Review: RCA's 'EPiC Original Motion Picture Soundtrack' was released on digital and CD back in February and on 2-LP vinyl last weekend.
Executive produced by Baz Luhrmann, the soundtrack features 27 tracks from the 'EPiC' documentary combining newly restored live performances with fresh remixes and medleys created from Elvis’ original recordings.
It is a packed 74 minutes of pure Elvis delight and this original soundtrack genuinely does follow the story-line and arc of the movie and also includes some full-length versions of Elvis’ on-stage performances that were edited for the actual film. If the movie took you on an emotional journey then this CD is a lovely keepsake of the same trip. It truly captures the glory and power and emotion of Elvis' legacy.
The movie jumps from one performance to another with multiple edits - how does this work as a standalone CD?
There CD includes a lengthy and detailed track-list but unfortunately never notes which shows Elvis’ performances were actually taken from. -
This review will hopefully reveal all. Check out our 4000-word in-depth review by Piers Beagley.

News from earlier last week ....
'Elvis Evolution' show cancelled: News that the London 'Elvis Evolution' show has been cancelled.
With tickets originally available until August 2026 the production company, Layered Reality, closed the show last weekend. 'Elvis Evolution' has been removed from the 'Immerse LDN' waterfront venue and their website with 'Cleopatra: The Experience' as the only show now running.
Rumours are that the production company behind the event, Layered Reality, has ceased trading. 'Elvis Evolution' have mailed out the following to customers who have already bought tickets "We have made the difficult decision to close the experience. We are truly sorry for the disappointment this will cause.
Due to the company no longer trading we advise that you contact your point of purchase or card provider for further information regarding refunds.

"Destined to Give - The Legendary Generosity of Elvis Presley": Noted Elvis author, Sally A. Hoedel, has revealed details about her third and final installment in her "Destined to..." series. .. The book examines the evolution of the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll’s
benevolent giving and the purpose he found by sharing much of his wealth
with others. Elvis Presley and his deeply artistic soul sought peace and only found
fleeting moments of it on his journey. He was meant to share himself
with the world, even if his time was made short. As philosopher
Heraclitus said, “A man’s character is his fate.” It was the fate of
Elvis Presley to be remembered for all time, not only as a creative
master of his craft, but as a man of character who gave and gave to help
his family, his friends and his fellow man. He earned a solid place in
history like the great leaders of the country he loved, and he certainly
earned a grand place in the hearts of fans around the world. Ed Parker
said it best when he said, “Money did not go to his head, it went to his
heart.”

David Gilmour On Elvis: David Gilmour is the lead guitarist of UK band Pink Floyd. He co-wrote many of their most famous songs and also sang lead vocal on half of 'Dark Side Of the Moon'
Gilmour has often noted that it was hearing Elvis' that inspired him to be a performer. 'Heartbreak Hotel' that really, did it for me. I vowed to get a guitar and learn it. It's quite minimalist, Heartbreak Hotel, double bass, little bit of guitar, piano - that's not an awful lot going on, tons of atmosphere..."
In a recent FarOut magazine article journo Tim Coffman discovered more...
... Before you had bands like Pink Floyd, you must understand that most rock bands were still fairly by the numbers. The Beatles had only just started to take over the world when most of the band were picking up their instruments and Elvis was still one of the biggest stars in the world.
Sure, his reputation as a rock and roller may have taken a bit of a hit after starring in a bunch of questionable movies, but he could still sing like no one else on the planet. Ever the showman, Presley usually put his heart and soul into every word he sang, usually adopting the blues swagger of artists like Big Mama Thornton and making it acceptable for white audiences.
Compared to the uptempo numbers like ‘All Shook Up’ and ‘Hound Dog’, ‘Heartbreak Hotel’ has a certain haunting quality. Presley’s voice is still the star of the show, but the arrangement with a swinging tempo is much more melancholy than normal, especially when the guitars come in and you hear the slight echo on his voice.
While Gilmour has always shouted praise for acts like The Beatles, he thought this version of ‘Heartbreak Hotel’ was as good as rock and roll ever gets, telling BBC, “‘Heartbreak Hotel’ is a perfect recording. It’s just so spare, so little going on, but every nuance, everything on it, it’s absolutely perfection… It’s just that place and the piano, just magic”.
That appreciation says a lot about how Gilmour approaches music in general. ‘Heartbreak Hotel’ isn’t packed with layers or technical wizardry, but every element feels deliberate, creating an atmosphere that pulls the listener in without ever overwhelming them.
In many ways, Gilmour wasn’t just admiring Presley’s performance but recognising a philosophy that would shape his own playing for decades to come. If Gilmour liked it for the echo, he would use that same haunting voice for everything he did afterwards.
It’s impossible to really match a guy like Presley at his own game, though, so Gilmour saved most of his best moments for his guitar playing. A Gilmour guitar solo might speak louder than words half the time, but if the reference point is Elvis Presley, any rock star will compete for second place.

UPDATED - 'EPiC' - Elvis Presley in Concert' EIN Review: Baz Luhrmann's 'EPiC' - Elvis Presley in Concert' opens in cinemas worldwide today Feb 27, 2026. It has already received rave reviews in the general media and now EIN has a deeper look.
Director Baz Luhrmann explained.."'EPiC' is not specifically a documentary, nor a concert film: Elvis takes the audience through the journey of his life, weaving never-before-seen footage with iconic performances that have never been presented in this way, from the 1970 Vegas show, on tour in 1972 and even precious moments of the 1957 “gold jacket” performance in Hawaii.
Most importantly, Elvis will sing and tell you about his life in first person, through both classic and contemporary musical prisms.”
Directed by Baz Luhrmann and edited by Jonathan Redmond, the documentary is 96 minutes of stunning insight into Elvis the artist, caring friend and creative genius from small-town Mississippi.
Watching 'EPiC' on big screen is one of those deeply satisfying tactile experiences that can truly only be felt in your body. A great meal. A satisfying run. Swimming in warm ocean. Crisp mountain air. Playing with your puppy. Having a good buzz...
Interview with Gravel Road Music: The Gravel Road Music label has been operating for 20 years releasing plenty of very collectable releases such as 'You Know It Don't Have To Be Strictly Country', 'The Return Of A Prodigy', 'Plugged In & Geared Up', 'Good To Be Back' and last year the deluxe box-set 'Elvis: August 1969 By Invitation Only'
With another special GRM vinyl release 'Elvis In Concert' coming out this month we wanted to know more including...
- Why the vinyl 'Elvis In Concert' release has been so delayed
- Why is GRM's version different from the original release
- What is special about this collector's package
- Why not wait until the 50th anniversary of this concert
- Is the Elvis bootleg world dead
- Future GRM releases
Seeing 'EPiC' proved that angels do exist for Nick Cave: Elvis fan and million-selling muso Nick Cave (Australian frontman of 'Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds') has discovered that angels do exist when he saw the new Baz Luhrmann film 'EPiC'.
This week Cave posted on his wonderful 'The Red Hand Files' forum..
.. "I thought about a lyric I once wrote, I don’t believe in the existence of angels, and had been wondering if a good question might be, “Do angels actually exist, and if so, has anyone ever seen one?”
And then, on this seemingly unremarkable Tuesday evening in March, something happened.
I stepped into the London IMAX cinema in Waterloo and received an answer to this question.
And the answer was yes, angels do exist, in all their joy and fury.
So, right now, my crucial question to you all is, “Have you seen EPiC, Baz Luhrmann’s new film of Elvis Presley in concert?”
My best advice to you and everyone else. Just go, truly, just go and see it. - - Love, Nick

20 'EPiC' Questions with Ernst Jorgensen:At all the Australian premieres Baz Luhrmann noted that 'EPiC' - Elvis Presley in Concert' would never have been made without the work of his Editor Jonathon Redmond and "Elvis expert" Ernst Jorgensen.
EIN is certain that 'EPiC' - Elvis Presley in Concert' will be the documentary that future generations will watch to discover more about this mythical figure from the 1950s that changed the course of pop culture.
Ernst Jorgensen is credited as 'Music Consultant' for the new Baz Luhrmann film and EIN was certain that he must have been involved
throughout the whole process since he was also credited in Luhrmann's
ELVIS biopic. Ernst Jorgensen kindly agreed to answer a few questions for us.

Baz Luhrmann on 'EPiC': Another Baz Luhrmann interview, this time for 'IndieWire's Filmmaker Toolkit' where he talks more about technical side.
The article includes...
.. When Baz Luhrmann was directing his 2022 film “ELVIS” he heard about some mythical missing reels from the 1970 documentary “Elvis: That’s the Way It Is.” Luhrmann was intrigued, mainly because he thought he could use the footage in his film and thus avoid building a huge set and employing hundreds of extras. When he sent an associate into the Kansas City salt mine where MGM keeps its negatives, he discovered that there was something even more valuable hidden in the studio’s collection.
The result of that journey is “EPiC: Elvis Presley Live in Concert,” a gloriously exuberant celebration of The King that’s unlike any concert film or music documentary ever made. It’s an impressionistic and immersive portrait of Elvis at a peak moment in his artistry, when he was performing up to three shows a night in Las Vegas and interpreting everything from his own classics to Simon and Garfunkel’s “Bridge Over Troubled Waters” and The Beatles’ “Get Back.”
First, however, Luhrmann had to find the missing sound for all the material in MGM’s archives. Because “Elvis” was a success, Luhrmann was able to hire a researcher who he said was really more of a full-time detective to track down the audio, which often involved shady exchanges in parking lots with people selling a few minutes of sound at a time on the black market. In some cases Luhrmann had to convince collectors who didn’t want to part with their material that his intentions were pure, meeting with them multiple times until they trusted him with crucial footage.
Once Luhrmann had all of the material, he took it to (Beatles Get Back) Peter Jackson’s Park Road so they could restore the footage to its original glory. Luhrmann was intent on presenting Elvis and his music as they were, so the idea was to preserve the footage without altering it. “There’s not a frame of AI in this film. There’s not a visual effect. What Peter and his team do is take the negative and take the abrasions out of it and reproduce it at its highest quality. Then we take it back for color grading, which is a very sensitive art. It’s just spending hours and hours, which I did with our colorist.”
The rigorous work pays off in “EPiC,” which looks and sounds like it was shot yesterday. “The pictorial resolution is achieved through painstaking love. Peter and his team have this love and there’s no one like them on the planet. Think of what they did with that first World War picture [‘They Shall Not Grow Old’]. Think of what they did with The Beatles.”
The restoration work and the enveloping sound design by Wayne Pashley make “EPiC” an extraordinarily visceral experience that not only brings the viewer inside Presley’s perspective but gives a sense of what it would have been like to attend one of his concerts.
“We wanted to make it as much as possible like you’re actually at
a concert with Elvis,” Luhrmann said, which is why he encourages audiences to see it on the biggest screen available — preferably IMAX.
Although the movie is a typically maximalist Baz Luhrmann spectacle, its production was much smaller than he’s used to, and that made it particularly pleasurable. “I’m not saying I don’t enjoy [making other films], but everything is usually fraught with labor and complexity and is a mountain climb. Here we were a tiny little team and EPiC was probably the most enjoyable thing I’ve ever made.”

'Elvis Milton Berle Show June 4 &5, 1956' New book: Prolific author Paul Belard has just published his newest book about Elvis' sensational performance on the Milton Berle TV show.
... Elvis’ legendary rendition of “Hound Dog” delighted the fans. It still does. However, it enraged the critics. One described his exhibition as “tinged with the kind of animalism that should be confined to dives and bordellos.” Another explained with a suggestion of racism that Elvis “makes up for vocal shortcomings with the weirdest and plainly suggestive animation short of an aborigine’s mating dance.”
The reaction of the Catholic Church was predictable. In an article titled “Beware of Elvis Presley”, it wrote “If the agencies - TV and others - would stop handling such nauseating stuff, all the Presleys of our land would soon be swallowed up in the oblivion they deserve.”
Well, guess who had the last laugh!
Belard notes, while written about by others, in keeping with the tradition of this series of books which provides an almost 'day by day' look at Elvis' career this pivotal event could not be overlooked. A few colorized pictures brighten the story and several new photos and newspaper articles are included here.

'Oh Happy Day' (EPiC Version) New promo: A new taster from the 'EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert' soundtrack.
RCA Legacy say "Make today a happy one with the release of "Oh Happy Day (EPiC Version)" from the upcoming film, Baz Luhrmann’s EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert!"
Follow this link and pre-order the album via your preferred digital provider. EIN Note:'Oh Happy Day' from Elvis' August 7 1970 showroom rehearsal has been previously released but only the shorter 1.55 mins version.
Running 3.11 and with overdubbed instruments, this is a much more satisfying version. It also demonstrates the real shame that Elvis never decided to record the song. (News, Source;Legacy/EIN)
On 'Baz Luhrmann Official' Baz explained about this new upgraded version, "When we have a sequence in the film where Elvis is speaking about his musical heart, it’s born from Gospel and from country. When recovering the sound, we were able to have some wonderful sequences with the incredible Sweet Inspirations.
In the short sequence for 'Oh Happy Day' the archival recording quality wasn’t strong enough. So we were lucky to have Shannon Sanders and his incredible group of singers down in Nashville, who sang in the film 'ELVIS', create a somewhat musical memory flashback of Elvis in his early days sneaking in and watching the Gospel Choir at East Trigg Baptist Church. A heartfelt shout-out for all of the wonderful creative support to Shannon and the choir for this reimagined version of 'Oh Happy Day'.- BL
Jan 27 - 'Heartbreak Hotel '- Released 70 years ago today: Hearing Elvis' new song on the radio in Liverpool in 1956, The Beatles' John Lennon knew that Elvis' new 45rpm would change everything...
Lennon explained..“When I first heard ‘Heartbreak Hotel’ I could hardly make out what was being said. It was just the experience of hearing it and having my hair stand on end. We’d never heard American voices sing like that, they'd always sang like Sinatra or enunciated very well.
Suddenly there’s this sort of hillbilly hiccup on tape echo and all this bluesy background stuff going on. And we didn’t know what Elvis was singing about ….. to us it just sounded as a noise that was great.”
"Nothing really affected me until I heard Elvis. If there hadn't been an Elvis, there wouldn't have been the Beatles."

I only knew him for a short time, but I loved him like an uncle, you know the one you cant wait to see again?!?!
Being able to watch him as he brought smiles to others with his kind words and quick wit is something i will always treasure.
Sitting with him at 35,000 feet and both of us listening to Elvis’s first album and having him drumming along on his leg, saying to me “That's my boy!” Is a memory that only comes but once in a lifetime.
Elvis, was just one artist he played behind, toss in James Brown, Wilson
Picket, The Sweet Inspirations, and that one time with Little Richard. There were so many other acts famous and almost famous that he kept time for, always finding the perfect pocket to hold that groove in.
Even knowing this day was coming hasn’t made it any easier to handle.
I will miss you Stump, as you said to me many times, “You’re good people and I love you, man!” You’ll never be forgotten because your huge heart touched so many others."
Jerome 'Stump' Monroe was a charming, down-to-earth, self-effacing man who was an absolute delight to chat to when EIN called for an interview back in 2011 - and despite playing over 1,000 concerts with The Elvis Presley Show he still considered himself as no one special!
- - - Please check out our 2011 interview below
Jerome "Stump" Monroe EIN Interview:Jerome "Stump" Monroe was the drummer for The Sweet Inspirations, and toured with Elvis from the first 1969 Las Vegas concerts through to the very end in 1977.
When regular drummer Ronnie Tutt was ill or absent, 'Stump' stood in as the replacement with the TCB Band three times over those years. 'Stump' Monroe played with Elvis in Philadelphia in 1971, Las Vegas December 1975 and finally in Madison on June 24th 1977. The Madison concert would be Elvis' third last performance, the soundboard of which has just been discovered and released on the box-set The Final Curtain.
This means that Stump has finally got to hear the Madison 1977 concert that he played on for the first time in 33 years!
Jerome 'Stump' Monroe is a charming, down-to-earth man who despite having played over 1,000 concerts with The Elvis Presley Show considers himself as no one special!
EPE / Weinshanker Update: As part of Elvis' Birthday Celebrations EPE managing partner Joel Weinshanker provided an update on future plans.
He noted that developing what would become “EPiC” has been a priority since he took over EPE in 2014. “I've been trying to convince Warner Brothers to go into the salt mines and pull out all of this footage, I had a real understanding, that there would be a tremendous amount of material there.” EIN Note: Any real Elvis fan would have known the same due to all the bootlegged unreleased MGM material we have seen over the years!
Ultimately, it was the success of Luhrmann’s biopic 'ELVIS' and the director’s relationship with Warner that helped make the project possible.
Weinshanker added, “What I've always said is that the best person who should speak about Elvis is Elvis. When you see this film, that’s really what Baz did. Elvis is the storyteller, you hear about his life in his voice. This movie is just an amazing opportunity for someone to get Elvis' story from Elvis.” Elvis Hologram concert is still being worked on. “Every time there's a new technology, they ask first about using Elvis with that new technology. Often, we say no but the technology has finally gotten to the place where it can be an amazing experience. We feel it’s going to be great for our brand, and great for Elvis.” Elvis 50th anniversary in 2027. "The commemoration of his passing will take on many forms including a historic slate of programming and events at Graceland . We’re 12 months out from what will be a year-long focus.
That’s really going to be about us creating incredible storytelling and having as much of that storytelling coming from Elvis as possible. And it is a phenomenal story — it's the story of America, it’s the story of our pop culture.” More expansion of the Graceland complex.
2027 will also mark a decade since the $130 million expansion of Graceland in 2017. "There are plans for further development of the Elvis Presley’s Memphis complex and we're eyeing 2030 as a time where we would have something really rolling out that would be finished and be the next iteration. Our ability to constantly update and change is going to define the future for us. We’re lucky in that we have an incredible collection of artifacts and we’ve barely scratched the surface in terms of that material.
So we’re looking forward to showing people things they’ve never seen before.” (News, Source;CommAppeal/EIN)
'1956, Elvis Presley’s Pivotal Year':In 2011 TIME magazine featured this article by SONY/FTD's music producer and consultant Roger Semon. The article helped explain what the 2011 deluxe box-set 'Young Man With The Big Beat' was all about.
... "In the mid-1950s, the post-war Eisenhower era of social conformity in America was at its peak, and musically, the most threatening image appeared to be Bill Haley’s kiss-curl as he sang “Rock Around The Clock.” That all changed on Jan. 28, 1956, when a raw and electric Elvis Presley made his breakthrough on the CBS program Stage Show. Presley’s good looks, sensuous moves and mesmerizing voice made him a sensation overnight. But it wasn’t until a third appearance on the show that Presley truly challenged the status quo. On Feb. 11, the singer performed “Heartbreak Hotel” and by April, the single would be #1 on the Billboard chart. At last, teenagers had music of their own to swoon over while their parents continued listening to Frank Sinatra and Mario Lanza....
Including information on how the tour “downunder” was arranged, the author offers a “day-by-day” account of each town or city the Cadillac was on display around Australia. Promotion for the tour included significant media publicity and competitions in many areas to select “Elvis Presley’s Golden Girls”! It was a fascinating era for "Elvis" tours!
EIN’s Nigel Patterson has taken a ride in the golden chariot’s 3rd edition and was more than impressed with its performance improvements.
'Elvis Presley FTD World' David Ward Interview: Being published this month is the new 2-volume book from David Ward & Atsushi Nakamura covering all the FTD releases until now. Vol 1: FTD Studio Outtakes - FTD Live, Rehearsals, and Private Recordings - FTD Classic Albums Vol 2: FTD Soundtracks, FTD Books, FTD Sessions, and FTD Records
All 281 FTD titles are in these two books, from Burbank 68, released in 1999, to the most recent, Good Times – The Outtakes Ocean Blue Limited Edition in 2025.
Both books contain many beautiful photographs related to their respective titles. We believe that these books will please all Elvis fans...
Co-author David Ward kindly agreed to answer some more questions for FTD fans - as well as including some new sample pages. EIN's Piers Beagley asked the questions... (Interviews, Source;ElvisInformationNetwork)
On December 3, 1968 NBC TV broadcast "Singer Presents Elvis". It was a great moment in music, in television, and a moment of change when Elvis rediscovered what he had lost. He regained his voice -- and in so doing became at once who he was and who he'll become.
His singing still had the lilt of youth but with a mature edge and real power. Elvis was still only 33 years old but he was lean and chiseled and -- what he had not seemed in years -- a little dangerous.
The broadcast would not only change Elvis, but also change the future of Rock'n'Roll.
The '68 Special - the Anniversary Celebration: How lucky in life would you be to get to the original recording of Elvis' 68 TV Special and also make it to the recent 40th Anniversary screening in L.A? EIN's correspondent Joan Gansky is one of those few very fortunate fans. Joan Gansky not only met Elvis multiple times - but being at the original NBC recording of the 68 Special truly changed her life! Here are her unique recollections of attending the 40th Anniversary celebration - as well as her thoughts on being there back in June 1968.
This EIN exclusive features comments by Steve Binder, Priscilla, Bones Howe as well as great close-up photos by Paul Gansky.
'Elvis Last Tours Vol.3' In-depth FTD Review: FTD's 3-CD 5”digipak 'Elvis: The Last Tours Volume 3' features recordings from six Elvis performances in April 1977, Toledo April 23, Ann Arbor April 24,
Kalamazoo April 26, Milwaukee April 27, Duluth April 29 and St. Paul April 30.
By 1977 Elvis was running on low, his set-list had become stagnant and fans were lucky to hear Elvis perform any rare song in his predictable set-list.
However this late April tour found Elvis in much better form than his previous
one, possibly because girlfriend Ginger Alden accompanied him - and it
is notable that songs such as Polk Salad were being performed again. ‘Ann Arbor’ was one of Elvis’ best performances of 1977. It was the only time Elvis sang ‘Unchained Melody’ on this tour and it would be the last time he ever sang ‘Little Darlin’ - with both tracks featuring on Elvis’ ‘Moody Blue’ album. Elvis soundboard super-collector Geoffrey McDonnell along with EIN's Piers Beagley explore this new six concert pack in-depth to see what fans might discover..

'Doc Pomus Talks Elvis Presley' EIN Spotlight: If Elvis found the creative connection he needed in the 1950s with Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, then upon his return from the army he found a similar connection with the composers Doc Pomus and Mort Shuman.
Jerome Felder, better known as ‘Doc Pomus’ was born in Brooklyn on June 25 1925- so this year he would have turned 100.
Elvis’ post-army creative comeback would not have had anywhere the impact without these great Doc Pomus contributions that came out as major 45rpm hits, ‘A Mess Of Blues’, ‘Surrender’, ‘His Latest Flame’, ‘Little Sister’, ‘She's Not You’, ‘Long Lonely Highway’ and ‘Viva Las Vegas’.
In 1986 EIN fan club member Mark Bingham met the great Doc Pomus at the Lone Star in Manhattan.. .
... I walked up to him and said ‘I’m told you’re Doc Pomus’.
He says ‘what about it?’
I said, I’m a huge fan of your work'.
Doc doesn’t even look up but says ‘you don’t jackshit about my work’.... Go here for this great spotlight which reminds us all of the fabulous personality that epitomised Doc Pomus - one of the greatest composers of all time... (Spotlight, Source; Mark Bingham/ElvisInformationNetwork)
'The Sun Singles of Elvis': In-depth Book Review: Elvis specialist Warren Schubert has published his new book via Memphis Mansion - 'The Sun Singles of Elvis – An Illustrated Guide'.
... The publicity noted
This book reveals all the secrets behind Elvis’ most iconic records: the legendary five Sun singles!
How many variations of Elvis’ legendary Sun 209 actually exist?
It includes hundreds of high-resolution photographs showing all known variations and expert analysis that separates myth from fact.
If Elvis hadn't walked into the Memphis Recording Service in mid-1953
our world might be very different today. It was his crucial SUN singles that would not only be the bedrock of his stunning legacy but the music
on those fragile pieces of shellac would also go on to change the
history of rock'n'roll and popular culture.
Paul Dowling ‘Worldwide Elvis RCA Vinyl Discography' Book: Today Paul Dowling celebrates 51 Years in the Elvis business!
The publication of his massive 'Worldwide Elvis RCA Vinyl Discography' was announced around 5 years ago, even though Dowling notes he has been working on it for decades.
Back in 2016 Dowling told EIN, "It was 1992 when Bernadette Moore (in charge of the BMG Archives, New York) invited me to come up there and do research for my huge Worldwide Discography book which is now around 4000 pages but of course it still hasn't come out as I have found tons and tons of new information and continue to do so daily.
Bernadette gave me total access to any and all files they had on Elvis' vinyl and I found many that even people up there never knew they still had. I came home with over 3000 photocopies of listing notices, production cards, pre production cards, inner office cards, and more.."
Good news as today Dowling posted.. COMING EARLY 2026! A five volume (or more!) series of WORLDWIDE ELVIS RCA vinyl discography books which will include information, including photos, of all label and covers of every 78, single, EP, LP, and promos that were ever issued on RCA in 63 countries!
Note: The book cover shown is not the final version. (News, Source;WWE/EIN)
Paul Dowling is without doubt one of the major names in the Elvis World. He started collecting and selling Elvis vinyl over 50 years ago and probably has the world's largest Elvis Presley record collection.
The 2012 book 'Bootleg Elvis' helped explain how a group of super-keen Elvis fans from around the world, including Paul Dowling, created the fascinating world of Elvis vinyl bootlegs to satisfy demands of Elvis collectors who were being ignored by RCA at the time.
In the book Dowling is credited as "revolutionizing the Elvis bootleg scene" due to his desire to create high-quality product that would be even better than the official RCA output.
To discover more and read fascinating insider stories see EIN's exclusive 3-part interview with Paul Dowling
Remixed and sequenced by producer Anthony Stuchbury, it includes movie versions of five songs which haven’t officially been available elsewhere.
It was produced in collaboration with David Parker and RDM-Edition. "The fans asked for this, and we listened. Now you know what ‘we’ do for an encore."
'From ELVIS Recorded Live In Memphis 1974' MRS CD Review: From the MRS label 'From Elvis In Memphis – Recorded Live 1974' is out as
a double-CD Deluxe set and also as a 2LP Gatefold sleeve.
The 2CD set includes two performances from his hometown of Memphis. The first concert is from March 16 1974 (Afternoon Show), marking his return after 13 years, followed by a second concert on March 17 1974 (Evening Show).
At his Memphis 'Opening Night' Elvis put on one of the tightest and most impressive concerts for the whole of 1974. And in newly remastered 'MRS STEREO' this is a real delight.
This Sunday night March 17 concert neatly captures a different mood with Elvis up for some fun and so it compares rather nicely to the total professionalism of Elvis’ stunning opening performance.
Both shows remastered in 2025 by MRS to "true Stereo" sound as if they could be RCA Multi-tracks – you will never play any previous versions again if you get to hear these. Essential for your collection. EIN's Piers Beagley provides an in-depth review of this recent MRS release (CD Reviews, Source;ElvisInformationNetwork)
'The Colonel and the King' In-Depth Book Review: Published early this month Peter Guralnick's new biography ''The Colonel and the King: Tom Parker, Elvis Presley, and the Partnership that Rocked the World' has stimulated new debate.
The publicity promised.. "a groundbreaking dual portrait of the relationship between the iconic artist and his legendary manager — drawing on a wealth of the Colonel's never-before-seen correspondence to reveal that this oft-reviled figure was in fact a confidant, friend, and architect of his client’s success.
It was a relationship founded on mutual admiration and support. From the outset, the Colonel defended Elvis fiercely and indefatigably against RCA executives, Elvis’ own booking agents, and movie moguls. But in their final years together, the story grew darker, as the Colonel found himself unable to protect Elvis from himself or control growing problems of his own."
Unfortunately it appears that in trying to "debunk the myths" and create an alternate viewpoint of Col Parker, Guralnick has ignored a large amount of known history and obfuscates the facts.
Several of Parker's major exploitations of Elvis are deliberately left out!
Why exactly would a respected writer like Guralnick do this?
'Talking Elvis': EIN's spotlight 'Talking Elvis' is updated today with new reminiscences from James Burton, Petula Clark ‘Elvis angled for a threesome, he was raring to go!, Anita Wood's Elvis phone-call plus UK journalist Derek Johnson meets Elvis in Germany.
Meeting ELVIS made an impression on everyone from the poorest fan to the world’s biggest superstars. Even the briefest meeting or chance encounter with Elvis created some lovely memories as well as some fascinating stories.
These smaller encounters often get lost or forgotten and sadly there are fewer and fewer people still alive who had personal encounters with our hero. So EIN has gathered together multiple stories to help us understand and know more. 'Talking Elvis' features reminiscences from people including Pat Boone, Elton John, Paul McCartney, Robert Plant, Paul Simon, Cliff Richard, Cher, Linda Thompson, Suzi Quatro, Riley Keough, Ernst Jorgensen, Dolly Parton, Ann-Margret, Barbara Stanwyck, Leo Sayer, Tommy Steele, Priscilla and many more...

Paul Bélard - An impressive publishing record: With around 40 Elvis books already published, prolific author-researcher, Paul Bélard, has established a cult following with his mix of "day-by-day" photo-books and subject specific releases focusing on controversial and important parts of the Elvis story.
The books are chock full of contextual narrative and hundreds of photos and rare archival material.
Over the first half of 2025, Paul has already published seven titles!
Bélard explains, "It's a thrill every time I discover an Elvis picture that I had never seen before, even if the quality isn't perfect. Through my books I want fans to be able to follow Elvis day-by-day, sometimes hour-by-hour. These books are historical documents, a scholarly study of Elvis’ career." In Nigel Patterson's feature article, EIN provides details on the latest Paul Bélard releases, a full list of his Elvis books (including links to titles reviewed by EIN), background information about Paul – plus links to two interviews we have conducted with him.

(Book Review) 'Elvis: April - May 1958': The new Elvis "day-by-day" photo-journal release from Paul Belard, "Elvis April-May 1958 " is out now.
Over 208 pages, and with more than 200 photos, the book looks at Elvis' first two months in the army
These two months would have been the most traumatising for Elvis. None of us can imagine his real feelings as Elvis went from being the world’s biggest entertainer to becoming a regular soldier doing group exercises, sit-ups, marching, shoe cleaning, ‘K.P’ and all the time not knowing what the next two years would bring.
While Elvis would spend these months doing basic training, it would be his interactions with his army mates and the general public that help enrich our knowledge of the kind of person Elvis really was.
With plenty of books presenting the wild-side of Elvis the superstar-performer in 1957, in 'April - May 1958' it's revealing to see more of the "real Elvis."
.. "Why do the girls go for Elvis? I'm no judge of that, of course! But I'd guess it's because he has very sensuous eyes and lips.
Elvis doesn't care what people think. And he's not bashful. He'll walk up and talk to anybody. Elvis is completely unorthodox, and unpredictable. As he puts it, "If you wanta’ get ahead, you gotta be different!" And he means it.
With other performers, you can predict pretty well what the act is going to be when they step on a stage. Not with Elvis."
'The Harum Scarum Sessions' Box-Set FTD In-Depth Review: 'The Harum Scarum Sessions' is the 14th FTD “complete sessions” release and is noted as the 60th anniversary edition!
The Deluxe 3CD set includes a 24-page booklet featuring a look at the movie, Sessions Data, foreign film posters, worldwide premieres plus chart listings and 45 and 33rpm sleeve covers.
All the masters and session outtakes are newly mixed and mastered by Sebastian Jeansson and Vic Anesini for superior audio.
Includes over 60 previously unreleased outtakes including 30 of 'Shake That Tambourine' (lucky us!), plus new outtakes of 'My Desert Serenade', 'Wisdom Of The Ages', 'Kismet', 'Hey Little Girl', 'Golden Coins', 'Animal Instinct' - plus new backing tracks. The Beatles sang 'Norwegian Wood' - Elvis 'Wisdom Of The Ages'!
While Harum Scarum could be the real point that Col Parker started letting Elvis down - for fans that enjoy that crazy middle-eastern vibeHarum Scarum should be great fun. EIN's Piers Beagley checks out this new set to investigate whether collectors need quite so much Harum-Exoticness...

Elvis June 26, 1977; the Final Curtain: On this very day June 26 in 1977 Elvis played his very last concert at Market Square Arena Indianapolis.
It was his longest and his very best performances of 1977.
..Elvis stepped on stage with energy that was a relief to anyone and the audience burst into an instantaneous, collective roar that was explosive and deafening. Anyone who questions Elvis' power over his audience needs only to listen to the opening of this concert to see the proof of his command.
Compared to the truly weak performance that CBS TV had filmed only one week previously, this was a healthier, happy and focused Elvis who was determined to put on a great and memorable 'Closing Night' concert.
June 26 is an important day to reminisce and also consider just how much happiness Elvis Presley brought to us all as a performer. EIN's Piers Beagley checks out this historic performance (Spotlight, Source;ElvisInformationNetwork)
The publicity notes... Elvis died on August 16th, 1977, at the age of just 42, in his Graceland mansion. His death marked something significant in the collective mind, like the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, or Martin Luther King.
Conspiracy theories took off about the circumstances surrounding his death: Was Elvis murdered by the mob? Was his death faked? Did Elvis commit suicide? Is he still alive? This book sheds new light on many of these questions, while also celebrating his music and legacy.
'Elvis: June 75' In-depth FTD Review: A new 4CD digi-set 'Elvis June 1975' featuring soundboards of four shows
from Mobile A/S June 2, Houston E/S June 5, Shreveport A/S June 7 and
Jackson A/S June 8 1975.
Disappointingly for collectors all the performances on this new FTD set have been out on bootleg before. However, with the barrel almost bare, there has to be plenty to enjoy in these mid-75 performances.
After all, After all, "This mid-1975 period was a positive return for Elvis. Elvis' good mood throughout is truly infectious and along with his well-sung and committed performances they all go to making these concerts worth listening to."
At the Houston Evening Show Elvis was buzzing with energy, while at the Jackson Afternoon Show the flies were buzzing Elvis! There is plenty of fun to hear and it was always a very fine set-list. Elvis soundboard super-collector Geoffrey McDonnell along with EIN's Piers Beagley explore this new set.... (FTD Reviews; Source;ElvisInformationNetwork)

'The Girl Happy Sessions' Box-Set FTD In-Depth Review:'The Girl Happy Sessions' is the 13th FTD “complete sessions” release.
This 3-CD set contains all the masters and available session outtakes. Highlights include unedited full-length masters and also the rare vocal re-record of 'I Feel That I’ve Known You Forever' especially made for the motion picture 'Tickle Me'.
This set includes previously unreleased takes of 'Puppet On A String', 'The Meanest Girl In Town', 'Girl Happy' (multiple long 'False starts'), 'Cross My Heart And Hope to Die' (multiple long 'False starts'), 16 new outtakes of 'Spring Fever' - and all 36 takes of 'Do Not Disturb' (only 6 outtakes have been released so far!).

The package also includes a comprehensive 24 page booklet.
The Lisa Marie – The King’s Flying Graceland (Carlos Varrenti): The latest book from aviation expert and longtime Elvis fan, Carlos Varrenti, is now available from Amazon stores.
The author commented on his new book: “In the world of music, few names resonate as profoundly as Elvis Presley's. While "The King of Rock 'n' Roll" is celebrated for his legendary music and iconic performances, there exists another dimension to his life that has long captivated me: his enduring romance with the skies.
“In my previous editions of "The Airplanes & The King," I embarked on a journey to explore Elvis's remarkable aviation adventures. I delved into the aircraft he chartered, purchased, and occasionally flew, providing a glimpse into his fearless exploration of the world of flight. Yet, with each passing edition, I couldn't help but feel that there was a significant piece of the puzzle left unexamined as deserved—the centerpiece of Elvis's aeronautical legacy: The Lisa Marie.”
The 550-page hardback is filled with fascinating information, photos, flight plans, Lisa Marie plane technical details, Lisa Marie airplane memorabilia, and stories by those who flew the plane ("Anyone for a sandwich?") and those who flew on it with Elvis.
The author, whose university degree is in Aeronautical Engineering, previously released the acclaimed book, 'Elvis Presley The Airplanes & The King'. -- Read EIN’s recent interview with Carlos Varrenti (News, Source: Carlos Varrenti; EIN)
'Elvis Book News' New EIN feature: Elvis Presley's influence and legacy has touched every kind of publication and media platform since he became the world's most successful entertainer of all-time back in the 1950s.
This year would have been Elvis' 90th birthday and thanks to RCA / SONY / FTD / MRS, along with the bootleg labels, nearly every minute of music that Elvis ever recorded has now been released. In this century Elvis Presley has now become even more of a pivotal role as part of our socio-cultural fabric... his impact / influence is greater than just his music.
Nowadays fans find more literature about Elvis and his legacy being published than 'new' music.
EIN's “Elvis Book News” will focus on book reviews, news and also the eclectic nature of Elvis' influence across all forms of literature.

Book Review - 'Marion Keisker: The Woman Who First Recorded Elvis Presley':Paul Belard's latest book is a detailed account of Marion Keisker's life and her key role in the Elvis story. "That woman was the one who had faith she was the one that pushed me... Marion did it for me" - Elvis Presley 1971 .. Marion was Sam Phillips' assistant when he established the Memphis Recording Service, and later Sun Records.
She is best remembered as the first person to record Elvis in July 1953, then encouraging Sam Phillips (numerous times) to record him "commercially", therefore playing a pivotal role in Elvis' ascent towards the pinnacle of his career.
Throughout interviews given, Marion discloses the workings of Sun Records, the sessions, Elvis' moods during those first days of his career. There is a trove of little known or unknown anecdotes many fans will delight in.
This book is a fitting and well-deserved tribute to Marion Keisker.'
'Elvis UK3' is an outstanding reference e-book, there is however a keen section of Elvis collectors who prefer to own physical books as opposed to digital versions.
While the original 1,400 page book was too large to print as a single volume, the author’s idea of splitting it into three volumes is a very clever idea.
Leafing through these 478 printed pages of 'Compact Volume 1' gave us another reason to dig deep into Elvis’ CD legacy and enjoying the fascination of some stunning Elvis releases.
More praise for 'Elvis Hero of the Comic Books':Written by EIN’s Nigel Patterson (with “over and above” help from Elvis Day By Day’s, Kees Mouwen) the first in-depth record of Elvis in comic books, graphic novels and cartoons, was published earlier this year.
Reviews have been glowing since day one, the latest including a four-page text and image overview in It’s Elvis Time magazine (Netherlands) and a detailed review in the cult rock & roll magazine, Ugly Things (based in California).
'From Here to the Great Unknown’ Book Review: After all the publicity and hype Lisa Marie's revealing memoir has recently been published. There is no doubt that being part of a famous family certainly does not guarantee a happy life.
As Keough explains, “The early parts of the book are mostly my mother's voice, in the tapes she speaks at length about her Graceland childhood, the death of her father, the dreadful aftermath, her relationship with her mother, her difficult teen years. She’s frank and funny about my father, Danny Keough. She talks openly about her relationship with Michael Jackson. She’s painfully candid about later drug addiction and the perils of fame…
If you have ever wondered how Lisa Marie coped with life post-Elvis or noticed those old tabloid news reports saying that she had once again “gone off the rails” or spotted the tension between her and Priscilla, the answers and much, much, more are in this stunning memoir...
While Elvis died when Lisa Marie was only 9 years old there is still plenty new to discover from this intriguing book.. EIN's Piers Beagley checks out this powerful memoir, wonders why the Australian book has been edited - and discovers the delights of the Audio-Book..

(Book Review) Elvis, Hero of the Comic Books (Nigel Patterson): Respected Elvis author and reviewer, Gordon Minto, recently put on his reviewer’s cap to take on what he rightly describes as “a strange landscape” of how Elvis is portrayed in comic books (aka sequential art), a subject, which until now, has not been well covered or understood.
The book in question, Elvis, Hero of the Comic Books, was written by EIN’s Nigel Patterson and sublimely designed by Elvis Day By Day’s, Kees Mouwen.
The book includes stunning artwork from a number of releases and an eclectic variety of Elvis related comic book ephemera. Elvis, Hero of the Comic Books features more than 600 images!
Read Gordon’s detailed review to discover why he found the book to be “refreshingly different, extremely eye-catching, well-researched and well-written, while offering a new slant on things”.

CD Review 'The Joan Deary Tapes Vol1' - and has Ernst won the war?’: Two years ago EIN posted an article suggesting that the Elvis bootleg era was over, that FTD and Ernst Jorgensen had truly won the war.
So it was a surprise to many that a new bootleg label ‘Joan Deary Inc’ suddenly popped up two months ago promising a very similar series of releases to the Madison ‘A Legendary Performer’ set.
They promised "Unique content... with never issued before outtakes. Some very different mixes among other glorious sounding tracks. Every track comes in great sound quality and has been remastered for optimal listening pleasure..."
EIN was suspicious from the start - to be honest I saw no need to purchase this CD - but several EIN readers wanted to know more before they put down their hard earned cash.

Elvis LIVE Aug 23, 1969 Album Review + Elvis Concert Review 1969: ..."The atmosphere throughout the entire hotel was nail-bitingly electric! It is difficult for me to describe and paint a true portrait of attending in person this unique occasion - Elvis' Return to Splendor LIVE in 1969 - but I'll try my best. I want, and hope, you will understand the excitement of what has to be the pinnacle of Elvis' career to date!" Joan Gansky was lucky because not only was she in the audience for Elvis' TV musical renaissance of the '68 NBC Special but she also saw Elvis at his most dynamic - first at his August 22nd 1969 Midnight Show and then the following night at his August 23rd Dinner Show.

'What was Elvis searching for?' EIN Spotlight: The question is raised – but never answered – in the title of HBO’s recent absorbing, imperfect documentary 'Elvis Presley: The Searcher'.
At the start it seems clear what the teenage Elvis was searching for – an escape from the oblivion of poverty in the American South. Yet his quest was cultural as well as financial.
Later Elvis read obsessively, seeking out such books as The Impersonal Life, Joseph Brenner’s guide to self-discovery and Kahil Gibran’s book of fables, The Prophet. In his copy of Gibran’s tome, Elvis jotted down the line: “A singer can sing his songs but he must have an ear to receive the song”.
So what exactly was Elvis searching for? In this fascinating EIN Spotlight respected author Paul Simpson takes a close look at this all important question which, for some reason, was basically ignored in the recent HBO documentary..
Mindi Miller Interview with EIN: Mindi Miller was a working actress when she met Elvis in early 1975. She was interested in karate (she performed all her own movie stunts), exploring spirituality and the Bible and so they had a lot in common. Mindi Miller and Elvis bonded over their common interests and soon afterwards he asked her to go on tour with him in April 1975.
She stayed friends with Elvis through the years - along with members of the 'Memphis Mafia' - and attended his funeral.
EIN's Sanja Meegin recently caught up with Mindi Miller to talk about her close friendship with Elvis over the years.
In this fascinating interview she discusses. . . - Her first night with Elvis
- How Elvis persuaded her to cancel her overseas movie & modelling plans
- Their mutual interest in Karate
- Graceland and meeting Lisa Marie
- Attending Elvis' funeral . . . and much much more... Go here for EIN's Sanja Meegin and her intimate and detailed discussion with the delightful Mindi Miller - Now with Reader Feedback.
'Marty Lacker: A Life Well-Lived' & Elvis at American Studio's Interview: It was with immense sadness that last month EIN had to report on the death of our great friend - and a true friend to Elvis - Marty Lacker. We will miss him dearly. Marty is well-known as one of the key members of the Memphis Mafia and also co-Best Man at Elvis' wedding. He was known for both his honesty and being forthright with his opinions. He was the only member of the Memphis Mafia who still watched and commented on recent Elvis News. He had no issue with holding people to account (especially ones who would inflate their importance within Elvis' legacy) and would regularly ask EIN to add his comments or to correct any inaccuracy. Elvis fans often ask about Marty Lacker's background, how he came to meet Elvis, as well as his involvement in the music industry outside of working for The King.
As a prelude to Ken Sharp's fascinating interview with Marty Lacker and a discussion about Elvis' famous American Studio' Memphis sessions, EIN presents "Marty Lacker: a life well-lived" in which Marty tells of his life in the music industry, his friendship with Elvis along with his dislike of the over-controlling Col Parker. Go here to learn all you need to know about Marty Lacker as well as Elvis outstanding Memphis American Sound sessions in 1969. (Spotlight; Source,KenSharp/ElvisInformationNetwork)

Did Elvis Record 'Tiger Man' At Sun?: A question that has puzzled Elvis fans through the years is whether he actually recorded the song ‘Tiger Man’ during his years at SUN studios.
The basic question is why did Elvis refer to 'Tiger man' several times in concert as “The second song that I ever recorded, not too many people heard it”?
And if Elvis DID record it, then why hasn’t any reference to it at SUN or proof of its existence been found?
Elvis would first perform ‘Tiger Man’ in concert at his first 1969 Las Vegas International season and would continue playing it through the years – usually in a medley with Mystery Train - until his last performance at Saginaw on May 3 1977. He would sing it over 150 times on stage! The thought that there might be an acetate or undiscovered tape of Elvis at SUN singing ‘Tiger Man’ is a mouth-watering concept - but is it an unlikely fantasy or strong possibility?
Go here to our detailed 'TIGER MAN' spotlight as EIN's Piers Beagley puts in the hard yards to check the facts from the fantasy . (Spotlight; Source;ElvisInfoNetwork)
