Press Release: Elvis Day by Day 2024 - The Year in Review

The book you’ve been waiting for all year long, 'Elvis Day by Day 2024 - The Year in Review', will be released in January 2025. 

In 1954, Elvis came crashing through the doors of popular music, and he hasn’t stopped rocking since.”

This new Elvis yearbook is the proof of that! Packed into a colorful 450 pages is all the relevant news of what happened in the Elvis world, it is a complete overview, guide, and reference book of Elvis from all corners of the world in 2024.


 
It features all the news, including a complete overview of the “new”: 

  • Music, in Mono and Stereo, on CD and vinyl at 33, 45, and even 78 RPM.
  • Books and magazines.
  • Movies and TV specials as released on DVD, Blu-ray, and streaming services.
  • PLUS “Everything else Elvis” that mattered, skipping the nonsense. 

Highlights include:

  • The true story about Dewey Phillips playing the ‘That’s All Right’ acetate on WHBQ in July 1954.
  • The scam to “steal” Graceland.
  • All the Sony, Follow That Dream, and bootleg releases, including the major deluxe box sets, books, and more.
  • Over 70 in-depth reviews, articles by well-known Elvis experts, and interviews with key people in the Elvis world.
  • The Mono to Stereo releases of Elvis’ SUN recordings, greatest hits, soundtracks, and live recordings.
  • An in-depth look at Lisa Marie Presley’s memoir as completed by her daughter Riley Keough.
  • All the stunning colored and “liquid” vinyl releases.
  • A complete chart and awards overview (a new addition this year!)
  • And, of course, some of the oddball Elvis releases that make collecting fun!

From the “young man with the big beat,” it is a small step to Elvis’ former drummer, Jerome “Stump” Monroe, who provided the beat behind the King as part of the Elvis Presley Show in the seventies and wrote the foreword for this year’s edition. Seventy years after the release of Elvis’ debut single, “the beat goes on,” and that’s all right!
 
Praise for earlier volumes in the Elvis Day by Day series:
 
This annual “Bible for Elvis fans” provides essential reading for every Elvis fan and a valuable keepsake for years to come. And don’t just take our word for it, this is what fans are saying:
 
I thought I knew what was happening in the Elvis world, but I found so much news that I completely missed!
 
If you consider yourself a serious fan, you ought to have these books.”
These are books that won’t gather dust on your shelf—you’ll find yourself consulting them all the time. Unmissable!
 
Fascinating, interesting, enlightening! Need I say more?
 
My only criticism is that it has left me with a massive shopping list, and I have the 2024 edition at the top of that list already!
 
As Colonel Parker would say, there is “something for everyone” or perhaps we should say, “too much for any fan.” Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just starting your journey into the King’s world, this yearbook is the definitive guide to everything Elvis.
