I guess the last substantial item I bought was Sean Shaver's book The Life of Elvis Presley. I know those are getting harder and harder to come by, so I'm glad I've got it.![]()

I just picked up a couple of 45s from the 60s "Just Tell her Jim Said Hello" was one and "A Fool Such As I" on another. I had them already but I can't resist picking them up when I find them.

I got the book called Images of elvis by marie clayton and Elvis by kurt russel.
I recently purchased and have completed "Elvis, What Happened?" and Elvis and the Memphis Mafia". I didn't enjoy either book as much as I enjoyed the books written by Peter Guarnlick.

NEVER!! And you know what?? As I read those books written by the MM, I kept thinking back to Peter's books and thinking, some of these tales are a little exaggerated or situations have different meaning told through the eyes of another individual. With so many around him, we have too many versions of each event that took place with Elvis. Hence, all of the debates here.
