May 06 - 7 Elvis Files

7 Elvis Files 
 
Volume 4 in the "Elvis Files" book series by Erik Lorentzen is postponed until  August 16th. Erik Lorentzen recently found a huge lot of unseen pictures and would love to add these to the book. The planned period for this volume was 1966-1969, but due to the huge amount of material, it will cover 1966-1967. This also means that the planned 6 volumes will be changed to 7.


Elvis, The Beauty Queen And The DVD-R


Volume 2 of "Elvis, The Beauty Queen And Me" was released; but contrary to volume I this volume is a DVD-Recordable. It contains interviews with Jeanne LeMay and amateur footage from 1970 and 1971.
