Pressestimmen

?What makes it such an interesting read...is that all manner of stories and quotes are included from dozens of books on pop culture, rock music, celebrity memoirs, and so on....Overall, this is a good read. It's well written, interesting, and it will be a useful addition to the Elvis reference books.?-Elvis Monthly
