I've just finished watching the dvd and have flipped through the book.The dvd is a quality production.It covers the aspects of the lawsuit in great detail.It uses actual court papers along with photos and interviews.Im sure it took a lot of research to put everything together like they did.The dvd is narrated all the way through.One one of the things I was surprised to learn was that Patricia Parker had filed court papers again in aug of 1976.I thought everything was finished long before then.She was tenacious if nothing else.One funny part was when Elvis was being prepped for his lie detector test.He told the guy giving it that he was a happily married man and didnt fool around.Of course paternity was eventually disproven with the blood tests.It kinda surprised me too that all parties involved were in the room when samples were taken.I didnt know Elvis ever saw that boy.The book is just under 100 pages.The quality of the book is top notch.It has heavyweight glossy paper and is really nice.The dvd fits inside the back cover.I thought it was a really interesting subject.The book is pro Elvis.Im glad I got my copy.The trailer for Behind The Image 3 looks great also.It showed some clips of some great 8mm footage.

EIN is interviewing author Bud Glass about the book and asking lots of interesting questions.

Should be on our site in next day or two.
(Bud was feeling sick with a winter cold & says he will get back to us soon)

This new 96 page hardcover book and DVD, Elvis Presley Paternity Suit Uncovered! from Bud Glass Productions and Praytome Publishing is out now. Back in 1970 after meeting and posing for a photograph with a young waitress named Patricia Parker in January, a paternity suit was filed in August 1970 against Elvis. While I knew about the paternity suit, I thought it was all over by 1971. It actually dragged on until August 1976, and the book gives you the details of the entire suit.

Pages 59 to 65 have 32 rare black and white photographs taken October 21, 1971 as Ms. Parker, the baby and Elvis went to The Brentwood Laboratories in LA for blood tests. A photographer was hidden across the street and took these photos, a few of which have been seen over the years, but here you get to see them all from the collection of Russ Howe, who manages once again to provide Bud Glass Productions with great photos!

We all know about what Elvis did on stage from 1969 to 1977, but here we are presented with the private side of Elvis, dealing with something that I'm sure caused him much stress and discomfort while still performing across the country entertaining his fans.

The book also comes with a 95 minute DVD that walks you through the entire paternity suit detailed in the book. In fact, you can play the DVD and follow along with the book from start to finish. The DVD also contains some candid and concert footage of Elvis.

This is a first rate production dealing with a side of Elvis not all fans are aware of, and if you truly want to know the man behind the image, I recommend you get a copy of this book and DVD.

I always figured it was true, since they were photographed together backstage in Vegas, the close-up of her in the audience in TTWII, and the fact that he was consistently unfaithful to Pris.

Which one is she in TTWII? Where in the film can she be seen?

Hi Gang,
Bud Glass was kind enough to answer a pile of EIN's questions about his new release.

His long & detailed replies are a fascinating read for anyone thinking of buying the book...

i just recieved this yesterday, i really like the book , the documents were a very important part of this investigation and documentary, most of the films we have seen over the years but again not in this great quality[and length] these were obviously taken from the original source], i was disapointed in the people that were interviewed, i remember many,many, years ago that marg thrasher from memphis tv interviewed O GRADY , and i believe he stated that E.P. was really embaressed by the whole thing and wanted to pay her off, but was advised , not to do so, and the photos of him with the walking stick are finally given the right date, this was always captioned as his arrival at the whitehouse[with legal reresentation ?] i believe alot more searching could have bin done looking for tv interviews with the mentioned O GRADY interview , and BILLY SMITH to whom he confided to that this was his most embarrising moment, from then on the bad press kept comming , BILLY said that E.P. was worried as hell and never denied that it could have happened and at one time told him that he was sure that he had one other child out there but wasn't sure where or when it would come up, and he left a clause in the will for this purpose. Again i found parts of the documentary vage. It's great that howe dug up the photos [thank god he stopped impersonating him]. I think the reviews from those who are not selling and in bed with BUD GLASS , and recieving the material for free, should trust the review of those who have to pay for it, just my opinion.

It's worth buying if the material covered is interesting to you.It goes into great detail concerning all aspects of the paternity suit.I enjoyed it because it's a subject that hasnt been covered to death previously.The book is pro Elvis and doesnt portray him negatively either.
