While probably not for the average person; fans of Elvis and students of the music industry will find lots to learn and enjoy here. There is a surprising amount of detail about the circumstances of each session; Elvis; the songs; the musicians and producers; the song writers; the publishing; etc. I really enjoy finding the details of my favorite works here. Hats off to the author; this book is not one that could be just slapped together quickly.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. THE book to read if you are a lover of Elvis musicBy L. BethkenhagenAt last a book not about the women Elvis had; the Memphis Mafia; the Colonel; No; this book is about the man and what he was after all most famous for - his wonderful music. This book is painstakingly researched; with enormous attention to detail and beautifully put together with many great pictures that I had never seen before. Jorgensen really did his homework on this and his admiration for Elvis comes through in his writing.It is great to see who played what at every recording session and how Elvis felt about his music - a great perfectionist who was totally frustrated about many of the inferior songs he had to sing in the even more inferior films he later had to make. When you read how many takes on songs he did in the studio to get things just right; you just wonder how his wonderful voice held out all those years; especially as he; after exhausting recording sessions lasting hours; would sing gospel songs throughout the night as well. Yes; Elvis was truly an "Olympic Champion of Singing" as someone once put it. A jewel of a book for any true Elvis fan and full marks to Jorgensen.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Superb Book On Elvis Presley and His MusicBy Eldon EdwardsSuperb book on Elvis Presley and his music. Well researched and well written book.
