5-0 out of 5 stars Among The Best Elvis Books I've Read
The essence of Elvis Presley is underscored in so many satisfying, subtle nuances. Featured, are numerous and detailed, flavourful recountings of highly personal annecdotes, sharing an insider's view of Elvis and seemingly placing the reader smack dab on the inside of Elvis' world. Many revelations. Most gratiflying. Once started, the book can not be put down. Highly recommended.

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent! The "realest" book yet! Couldn't put it down...
I have read MANY books on Elvis by many people who where "supposed" to have know him, lived with him, traveled with him. Kathy's book is the first to give us insight about the "man", not the "image". She was honest and fair, she told us bad habits, but she also tried to explain why he did many of things he did. She wrote her book with lots of love and respect for a dear friend she misses very much. I was touched my many things she wrote and I cried throughout much of the book. Thank you Cathy for giving us a chance for the first time to understand just what a truly misunderstood, kind, gentle, caring "man" Elvis really was. And thanks also for not tooting your own horn....... Like many of us, on those days when you miss him the most, remember he is finally at peace, with his mama, and someday you will meet your friend again ... Read more

2-0 out of 5 stars Charming, but not essential
Published in 1977, short after Elvis' death, more than two decades later this book is still fun to read, if you're an Elvis-fan. "Starring Elvis" contains the stories and a few pictures of the favorite Elvis-movies of James W. Bowser. These favorites are: Love Me Tender, Loving You, Jailhouse Rock, King Creole, Wild in the Country, Blue Hawaii, Follow That Dream, Kid Galahad, Girls!Girls!Girls!, Viva Las Vegas, Roustabout, Harum Scarum and Charro! Pretty famous movies, you have to admit that, but the choice is, of course, subjective. But the die-hard Elvis-fans will probably be interested in the accurate stories of these movies, because all dialogues, describtions etc. are well written down in this book. A lot of black and white photo's are included and some color photo's (don't forget, this is 1977), but they aren't rare to get. This book is only recommendable to the truly die-hard Elvis-fans. Happy hunting! ... Read more

An interesting book with Dee Presley and her sons. If you're an Elvis fan you need to read this book. The good and the bad - Dee and her boys went through it all. I'm sure it was tough for Dee Presley and she never gets the credit she deserves. I found the book to be a good read all the way through. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Good Rockin Book
I thought this book was very good! I have read many Elvis books and really liked this one it gives you an inside look into the life of Elvis and the guys around him. i thought Joe was very honest in telling the story. i also liked the fact that this book tells what happened the day elvis died. it really is a great read if you are an elvis fan. good job joe i loved it!

4-0 out of 5 stars Warm and honest portrayal of a celebrity friend
I appreciate Mr. Esposito's warm and honest portayal of Elvis Presley as a complex, imperfect, yet sincere human being as well as a great performer. I especially appreciated his clarification of Elvis' relationship with blacks, and relieved to hear accounts from Myra, one of the members of the Sweet Inspirations (the black female group that did background with Elvis from the late 60s until his death) that Elvis was not a racist and treated blacks with respect, courtesy and admiration. (in fact, he appreciated black music as a child sneaking to black churches to hear the singing). The only thing that bothered me was his account of the late J.D. Sumner and the Stamps running around chasing women the same as Elvis did. Even if it were true, this must be very painful for his widow and children to hear, and I think Esposito should have at least spoken to J.D. before he published something of this nature about him (I believe that J.D. passed away after the book was published). I'm sure if Elvis (who deeply respected gospel music) were alive, he would be appalled. Other than that, the book was very good.

2-0 out of 5 stars Bad Writin' Tonight
This is one of the most inaccurate books ever written about Elvis Presley. It's obvious that Joe's affiliation with The Colonel was something that he tried desperately to rationalize because he is constantly lying in regards to how the Colonel ran things. He gets details wrong all the time, dates,...ect. When you compare this book to others written about Elvis, it's obvious that Joe's memory and his refusal to talk honestly about the Colonel and a few other subjects, make this a bad choice in what books to get about Elvis Presley. Even researchers ignore most of this book when writing their own books about Elvis. It's not that he doesn't talk honestly about the drugs either, he does. But the facts he states involving stories about the movie years and other things he gets the details all wrong.

2-0 out of 5 stars Bad Writin' Tonight
Joe's book Good Rockin' Tonight is one of the most inaccurate books ever written on Elvis Presley. Though he has a few interesting personal stories to share, it's amazing how many things he got wrong when it came to Elvis' career. Most of the Memphis Mafia laughs at how bad Joe's memory is on alot of the personal stories too. Some much better books to get are: Elvis Aaron Presley - "Revelations Of The Memphis Mafia" or Marty Lacker's "Elvis - Portrait Of A Friend" ...

5-0 out of 5 stars great
Good Rockin' Tonight is a very good book that tells the truth about Elvis Presley the king of rock and roll when he was on the road. A warm yet vividly honest portrait of Elvis the MAN. Recomend to all Elvis fans and anyone who likes good books. ... Read more

Book Description

The compelling and tragic story of the marriage of two poetic geniuses. When Ted Hughes's Birthday Letters was published in 1998, it was greeted with astonishment and acclaim, and immediately landed on the best-seller list. Few suspected that Ted Hughes had been at work for a quarter of a century on this cycle of poems addressed almost entirely to his first wife, the American poet Sylvia Plath. In Ariel's Gift, Erica Wagner explores the powerful and destructive relationship between these two poets through their lives and their writings. She provides a commentary to the poems in Birthday Letters, pointing the reader toward the events that shaped them and, crucially, showing how they draw upon Sylvia Plath's own work. 8 pages of b/w photographs. ...

Book Description

Elvis Presley was never accused of a crime, but for years the FBI kept a file on Presley because of the crimes that went on in the background of his world:death threats made against him; a major extortion attempt while he was in the Army in Germany; complaints about his public performances, a mention of a paternity suit; the theft by larceny of an executive jet which he owned and the alleged fraud surrounding a 1955 Corvette which he owned.These formerly Top Secret Files show dramatically how the FBI and other law enforcement agencies had to react to crimes in Presley's world. ...

2-0 out of 5 stars Pointless
This is all a bit pointless.The FBI kept files on all public figures during the 50s 60s and 70s (and perhaps beyond) so it wasn't like Elvis was up to anything excitingly illegal as to arouse their suspicion.It's not in story form as to make it easier to follow so this is really for Elvis completists.

A lot of the good stuff is blanked out so really, what's the point?

5-0 out of 5 stars Fascinating!
This is a fascinating "behind-the-scenes" look at all the crimes that went on in the background of Elvis's world. Death threats, an extortion attempt when he was in the U.S. Army in Europe, mention of a paternity suit, and the theft of an executive jet which he owned and other complaints and crimes. . .
The author not only published a complete book of secret FBI records, he also reprints 36 pages of original documents as full-page illustrations, showing exactly how the FBI handled these cases.
The author deserves credit for publishing these secret files! Any Elvis fan will find this new book well worth buying. ... Read more
