Im Juli 2014 plant "Finn Fan Productions" die Veröffentlichung eines zweisprachigen (englisch & finnisch) und auf 1000 Stück limitierten Ed Bonja-Bildbandes "Elvis - We´ll Remember You (Muistamme Sinut)".
Ankündigung des Verlages:
"In July of 2014 an independent Finn Fan Productions will release a unique coffee table book titled "Elvis – We'll Remember You". The book will contain many unseen photos of the King of Rock'n'Roll from the files of Ed Bonja. Bonja will open his photo exhibition of the same name in a South-East harbor town of Kotka, Finland on July 23rd, and the photo book supports the exhibition.
Photos for this publication were taken by Ed Bonja, who worked as Tour Manager and Official Photographer from 1970 to 1977. During that period he took some 10.000 photos of Elvis and various happenings in conjunction with the tours and engagements. Ed's photos were routinely used on all kinds of souvenir materials promoting Elvis tours, Las Vegas and Lake Tahoe engagements. In addition, most photos used on the single and LP covers from the 70's are from Ed. “Elvis – We’ll Remember You” covers years 1970 – 1975; including various tours, photos from Las Vegas Hilton Engagements and photos of crew members and musicians alike.
The book is divided in four different categories, which makes it a very special one. These chapters allow you to take a look also behind the scenes of a superstar’s production. On 200 full color pages, we see Elvis meeting fans – on and off stage, sometimes receiving gifts and awards. Roadies can be seen taking care of business and helping the organization their own way, as well as Colonel Parker relaxing at his home in Palm Springs or playing Santa for Hilton employees children. Included are the photos Ed took at Graceland when went there to take pictures for the live album cover. Not to forget The King himself: you’ll see Elvis on stage doing what he loved to do – entertaining.
Text in the book is in both Finnish and English, which makes this book international. Naturally, photos speak for themselves and cross all language barriers. Ed is a fantastic story teller and his vivid memories are integral part of this book.
This is not an ordinary photo-album-style book, this is a photographic essay which tells the Elvis story in many ways: particularly through the lens of Ed Bonja.

Ankündigung des Verlages:
"The King departed this world during the month of punk rocks apotheosis. Punk had set out to destroy Elvis, or at least everything he came to represent, but never got the chance. Elvis destroyed himself before anyone else could.
Nearly forty years after his death, rocks ultimate legend and prototype just wont go away and his influence and legacy are to be found not just in music today, but the world over. Elvis Presley has permeated the modern world in ways that are bizarre and inexplicable: a pop icon while he was alive, he has become almost a religious icon in death, a modern-day martyr crucified on the wheel of drugs, celebrity culture, junk food and sex.
In Elvis Has Left the Building, Dylan Jones takes us back to those heady days around the time of his death and the rise of punk. He evokes the hysteria and devotion of The Kings numerous disciples and imitators, offering a uniquely insightful commentary on Elviss life, times and outrageous demise. This is a fresh account, written with the authors customary panache, recounting how Elvis single-handedly changed the course of popular music and culture, and what his death meant and still means to us today."

"This book project has been in the works for over nineteen years now. The actual writing of this books has taken almost four years, over seventy interviews, nine trips to Memphis, four trips to Tupelo, unaccounted hours of research on the internet, phone, and in person and on location of events.
Dennis has first hand knowledge of seeing Elvis live in concert, conducting in depth interviews with those that knew Elvis best, the real Elvis, from some that lived at Graceland with him, while others were employed or were close family or friends. Some of those interviews came from people like: JD Sumner, James Blackwood, Jake Hess, Larry Geller, George Klein, Dr. Nick, Marion Cocks, Sandy Miller, David Standley, Elvis' Uncle Vester, Uncle Earl & Aunt Nash, former classmates and girlfriends, bodyguards, band members, studio owners and workers, Ray Walker, Gordon Stoker, Charlie Hodge, John Heath, Club Owners of Memphis, and many more.
Over the past four years we have gathered photos, many from Elvis' cousin Mackey Hargett, that have little or no publications in the United States, some are that of private collections of family members and of a rare Elvis & Graceland. These photos and interviews are covered throughout the entire collection, inside the pages of these three volumes. Ever wondered the REAL Reason and Cause of Elvis' death? The answer can be found somewhere in this trilogy.
