ISBN: 1802272550Am 15.04.2022 erscheint das von Madeleine Wilson geschriebene und 370 Seiten starke Buch "Elvis Presley, Gospel Singer: An Inspirational Life" bei "Shalom Publishing" im Taschenbuchformat.
Ankündigung des Verlages / Wilson:
"Elvis was known as the “King of Rock and Roll”, but he was also a Gospel Singer. He received three Grammy awards for his recordings, all of which were for his gospel songs.
Elvis, “The King”, many times said publicly that there is only one King, and that is Jesus Christ. He not only acknowledged the Lord but also worshipped Him and prayed to Him, often.
This book looks at Elvis’ life, particularly his Christian faith and the inspiration that he has been, and still is, to so many people. There is no doubt that Elvis is an enigma, but hopefully this book clarifies a side of Elvis that is often neglected. I believe it is a ‘good read’ which will be a revelation to many and, I hope, a blessing to all."

ISBN: 9781400237005Billy Stanley veröffentlicht in Zusammenarbeit mit Kent Sanders am 04.10.2022 das 256 Seiten starke Buch "The Faith Of Elvis - A Story Only A Brother Can Tell".
Ankündigung des Verlages:
"Billy Stanley, Elvis Presley's stepbrother, shares the untold story of the iconic singer's Christian faith--its deep influence on his music, films, relationships, commitment to his family and fans, and his love for the Gospel.
When seven-year-old Billy Stanley and his two younger brothers moved to Graceland in 1960, Elvis eagerly welcomed them, embracing his new roles as big brother, spiritual mentor, protector, and playmate. On their first night together, Elvis introduced his brothers to bedtime prayers as he thanked God for his new siblings. Soon after, he began to read the Bible with them, and he continued both practices for the next seventeen years.
During Billy and his brothers' teenage years, Elvis shared his experiences of filming movies (including stories about the leading ladies who acted beside him), offered dating advice, and even doled out gentle discipline after two of the brothers once used a blue light to pull over cars in hopes of picking up women. Billy was particularly drawn to the times he bonded with his big brother through car racing, the wind on their faces as they sped through God's creation in Elvis' Ferrari, Pantera, or pink Cadillac.
Billy joined Elvis on tour for several years, helping as part of his road crew, bringing Elvis's Bible along, and witnessing his growing number of adoring fans. Elvis loved his fans in return, which is why he was drawn to Gospel music--it allowed him to share God's abundant love.
In The Faith of Elvis, Billy gives his first-hand accounts of Elvis's life and abiding belief in Jesus and heaven, which has been kept from public view until now. Though the King of Rock and Roll struggled with addiction and with his notorious playboy image, Billy reveals that the true Elvis was deeply committed to ensuring his family and his fans knew the true King, Jesus Christ"

Vom brasilianischen Fanclub wird das 328 Seiten starke und von Waldenir Cecon (u. a. "Elvis Sold Out - 1969 A 1977") stammende Buch "Elvis ´77 - O Ultimo Ano" in einer Erstauflage von 50 Stück angekündigt.
Ankündigung:
"O que aconteceu com Elvis em seu último ano de vida? Até pouco tempo atrás, havia uma vácuo de informações sobre alguns meses de 1977, como julho e o inicio de agosto. Foram semanas em que o rei não teve compromissos e ficou recluso em Memphis.
Mas com lançamentos de livros de pessoas que estavam próximos a Elvis, como seu cabalereiro Larry Geller e da última namorada de Elvis, Ginger Alden, tivemos uma ideia do que se passou nesse período e em outros de 1977.
Tudo o que eles escreveram retrata a verdade? Pode ser que sim ou não, mas não estamos aqui para julgar isso. Em Elvis 77: o último ano, você terá em mãos, mais de 300 páginas relatando tudo o que se sabe até hoje, do que aconteceu com Elvis de janeiro a agosto de 1977.
Somente dos acontecimentos de sua morte e os dias posteriores, são mais de 100 páginas.
Ainda traz o que aconteceu em Graceland nos dias posteriores à morte de Elvis, como alguns membros da Máfia de Memphis foram mandados embora, a luta de Vernon para trazer os corpos de Elvis e de sua mãe para Graceland, a briga judicial entre o Coronel Parker com Priscilla e a RCA, etc.
Além de tudo isso, o livro ainda traz várias fotos da época, em preto e branco e coloridas, sendo algumas raras, como do dia 16 de agosto em Graceland.
Elvis 77: o último ano, com certeza é e será uma fonte de pesquisa para vários fãs de Elvis no Brasil sobre o que aconteceu com o rei do rock em seu último ano."

ISBN: 0859655644Jerry Hopkins´ "Elvis" (1971) bzw. "Elvis - The Final Years" (1981) erschien am 26.04.2022 in überarbeiteter Version zusammengefasst unter dem Titel "Elvis - The Biography" und diese wird wie folgt angekündigt:
Ankündigung des Verlages:
"Jerry Hopkins's Elvis: A Biography was the first book on popular music to top the U.S. bestseller list, and its sequel was equally popular. Long out of print, both books, along with a wealth of exciting new interviews, are brought together in Elvis to form the most exhaustive account available of the King's life.
Telling the complete story of Presley's rise and fall, from his poverty-stricken childhood in Tupelo through his musical development and emergence as pop's first superstar to his decline and death, the book explores Presley's singular appeal, his far-reaching influence, and his extraordinary legacy.
Featuring newly published first-hand interviews with people close to Elvis - including high school teachers, girlfriends, directors, agents, recording engineers, bodyguards, sidemen, karate instructors, medical professionals, and even his personal jeweller - Elvis presents a comprehensive and amazingly intimate look at this cultural icon."
