This is the true story of the King as told by those who lived and toured with him. This book features intimate interviews with the musicians who worked with Elvis, including DJ Fontana, Scotty Moore, The Jordanaires and The Stamps Quartet, and helps to shed new light on the creative process behind the hits and what went on in the studio. The true backstage story is told by Presley tour veterans such as tour manager Joe Esposito, musical director and conductor Joe Guercio and bodyguard Sam Thompson. Loanne Parker, the widow of Colonel Tom Parker reveals the depth of feeling between The King and The Colonel. Never before have such personal recollections been bought together. This book also includes a complete track-by-track analysis of the entire Elvis back catalogue. Essential for any Elvis fan, this independent and unaligned book was made with complete editorial freedom. It is uncensored and is not endorsed by, or in any way associated with, the Elvis Presley estate, and is completely free to tell the unvarnished story of Elvis as it really happened.
