October 31 - Go West (With A broken Leg), For A Ride To Remember

Dr. Nick is at the hospital with a broken hip. He got it at his 83rd. birthday. 



Elvis Goes West

On the FECC forum a new CD was announced "Elvis Goes West" featuring tracks written by his former friend and bodyguard Red West; "That’s Someone You Never Forget", "You’ll Be Gone", "If Everyday Was Like Christmas", "Holly Leaves And Christmas Trees“, "Separate Ways" and "If You Talk In Your Sleep".

A Ride To Remember



Billy Stanley announced a new DVD on his time with his "steph-brother" Elvis Presley; "A Ride To Remember".


The Complete Confusion








On the Japan "The Complete Elvis" site the video advert is different to the one shown on the American site. The main stand out difference with this video is right near the end where the narrator tells us that only 2,500 numbered copies will ever be produced worldwide. 


Originally the set was said to have 1000 copies (in the first run). The package is presented with a standard, it is not clear if that is included in the Japanese Edition.
