This digital book, a newly written 377 page, fully comprehensive text, follows on from their previous publications in the 'Elvis UK' series, each of them acclaimed by collectors according to the press- release.
This new edition provides the ultimate guide to Elvis’s non-RCA LP album releases issued in the UK between 1974 and 1997.
This new volume:
- Complements - and extends considerably - information relating to these particular releases included in our original books Elvis UK, published in 1987, and Elvis UK2, published in 2002.
- Is extensively illustrated in full colour.
- Features a host of background information including a chronological list of all the albums included.
- Deals with each album individually, in a detailed and forensic way, while the text is amply illustrated with scans of every known cover and label variation, relevant photographs, and scans of contemporaneous newspaper and magazine articles.
- Includes background information about each release including historically significant events of the period.
- Contains hitherto unpublished information from company files.
- Features a header block for each album release comprising information about the songs or spoken word material included, along with details about the writers, as well as showing the record modes.
- Includes a detailed Song Index, showing recording dates, which album(s) each song has been featured on, along with details of outtakes used, as well as a Spoken Word Index referencing when and where the material was recorded.
And as readers have come to expect from each of the Elvis UK publications, there is a wealth of background information relating to the record industry incorporated throughout the text.
