ISBN: 1476684316"The Sonic Swagger Of Elvis Presley - A Critical History of The Early Recordings" heißt das für den 08.04.2022 vom Verlag "McFarland & Co Inc." angekündigte und mit 35 Fotos versehene Buch von Gary Parker.

Ankündigung des Verlages:
"Elvis Presley's clever manipulation of his numerous interests remains one of the music world's great marvels. His synthesis of country, rhythm & blues and gospel created an inventive mixture of hair-raising rock & roll and balladry, with one foot in delta muck and the other in a country hoedown.

This history focuses squarely on the music of Presley's groundbreaking early years and includes a comprehensive analysis of every Presley recording session from the 1950s. Chapters deftly illustrate how Presley, and his musical compatriots Scotty Moore and Bill Black, fused two distinctly American musical forms - country and blues - to form what would come to be known as rockabilly. Also detailed is Presley's influence on music and how his contributions are still celebrated today."

Das nächste Buch von Paul Belard wird die Fotobiographie "Elvis - June 1956", welche noch in diesem Jahr veröffentlicht werden soll.

Ankündigung:
"The 1956 juggernaut is picking up strength during this month. Early in the month Elvis was in Oakland followed by his second appearance on the Milton Berle where his legendary rendition of “Hound Dog” delighted the fans, and enraged the critics. June 1956 also brought him to Wink Martindale’s 'Dance Party' show on WHBQTV.

On June 19, Elvis attended “colored night” celebrating Juneteenth, the oldest known celebration honoring the end of slavery in the United States, a black-only event in one of the most racially divided cities in America, which demonstrated his close affinity with African-Americans.

After a seven day tour the month culminated with a rehearsal for his appearance on the Steve Allen show, closing the month with a concert in Richmond."

Elvis - The Gospel & Bordello Sequence: NBC TV Special June 28, 1968

Ankündigung des Verlages:
"The return of Elvis to TV in 1968 with photos that failed the sponsor's approval. Too offensive for puritan America! He helped bring the pop world from illusion to reality. He was the catalyst for making youth pop into a medium alive with sexuality and urgency."

 

 

 

Elvis - Opening Night: July 31, 1969

Ankündigung des Verlages:
"Many fans know this series of photos from the interweb but here you will see previously unpublished shots of Elvis on stage. He performed at the International in a 2,000-seat room and every show was a sell-out. He was a bigger smash than any other high powered Las Vegas attraction."

 

 

 

 

Elvis - One Night In Boston: November 10, 1971

Ankündigung des Verlages:
"Elvis on and off stage in super quality. "I've never seen anything like it," said Emilio, the obviously delighted maitre d' at the International and an 18-year veteran of Vegas showrooms. "The phones ring all day and people begin lining up at 10 a.m. for reservations. It was very exciting. I think anybody would be excited. And there's prestige involved, which gives you a good feeling."

 

 

 

 

Elvis - The International Hotel, Las Vegas: January 26 / February 23, 1970

Ankündigung des Verlages:
"You have never seen such high quality photos before. Elvis Presley walked on stage. A huge cheer arose from the audience. Here was the King of Rock and Roll. Embodied in this man’s life was the complete story of a musical and cultural revolution. The crowd loved it! He actually looked like a King."

 

 

 

 

Elvis - One Night In Anaheim: November 30, 1976

Ankündigung des Verlages:
"Every picture tells a story. Elvis had lost quite a bit of weight for this tour and the photos show this. His mood was good and so were the shows. A lot of interaction with the audience beautifully captured in this book with pictures by Elaine Christan."

ISBN: 8413624525Ray Connolly´s 440 Seiten starke Buch "Being Elvis - A Lonely Life" erschien am 09.09.2021 in spanischer Sprache bei "Alianza Editorial" unter dem Titel "Ser Elvis - Una Vida Solitaria" und wurde von Ana Pérez Galván übersetzt.

Ankündigung:
"Elvis Presley es una figura de talla mundial de la cultura popular, un artista cuyo talento y fama sólo fueron igualados por sus excesos y su trágico final. Con su deslumbrante voz, este ícono del siglo XX incorporó influencias del rhythm and blues y del folk de raíces americanas para crear un tipo de música completamente nuevo y una nueva manera de expresar la sensibilidad masculina.

En Ser Elvis. Una vida solitaria, el veterano periodista de rock Ray Connolly ofrece una revisión de la carrera del cantante más famoso de la música popular, ubicándolo no sólo bajo las chillonas luces de neón de Las Vegas, donde concluyó su carrera, sino también en el contexto del sur de Estados Unidos, en los barrios pobres donde Elvis se creció y formó musicalmente asintiendo a conciertos clandestinos de blues, frecuentando iglesias donde escuchaba góspel y aprendiendo a tocar la guitarra entre melodías de country y hillbilly.

A través de entrevistas a músicos que lo conocieron personalmente, como John Lennon, Bob Dylan, B. B. King, Sam Phillips y Roy Orbison, entre muchos otros, Ray Connolly logra uno de los retratos más matizados y maduros escritos hasta el presente del fenómeno cultural que fue Elvis Presley."
