Publisher and author Erik Lorentzen published a message about his health, explaining the delay of various book and vinyl releases this year.
The Elvis Files previously stated that the previously announced book and vinyl titles would be out before Christmas, but it looks like fans will have to wait until 2026 before they can hold these items in their hands.
Lorentzen posted: Dear friends, I like to share a few concerns with you about my health and I do hope for your understanding: In July of this year I was diagnosed with cancer and there have been a lot of doctors appointments and hospital visits since then. I had a surgery last Monday (December 1) and I will be absent for a few weeks. But . . . I will be back stronger than ever!
Hereby I wish all of you a healthy and prosperous Christmas and New Year
