Read what some true ELVIS insiders have to say about ELVIS-STRAIGHT UP...

Elvis always lovingly and with true admiration refered to Joe Esposito as "Gentleman Joe". In the 35 years that I have known him, Joe has continued to conduct himself in that fashion. You only need to read his latest book to get a true understanding of who Joe is, and a clearer picture of who Elvis and his friends and lovers were, and what life with the King involved. I love you, Joe....thanks for being a true friend to me and to Elvis....even today.

- Linda Thompson, Elvis' girlfriend and confidant, 1972-1976

Loved the book. Joe tells the truth about Elvis's colleagues and friends.

- Patti Parry, close friend of Elvis' since the early sixties

In "Elvis Straight Up" Joe gives a realistic look at Elvis and those around him. Thanks, Joe, for having the courage to be truthful and giving those "on the outside" real information, not just supposition. For fans who are tired of fictionalized stories and sugar-coated variations, this is the book to read. Be informed by one who knows.

- Loanne Parker, Mrs. Colonel Tom Parker, manager of Elvis Presley

Pop legend and Elvis "Speedway" co-star NANCY SINATRA checks out ELVIS-STRAIGHT UP!

Elvis-A 30th Anniversary Tribute

This August marks the thirtieth year since the world lost its single most important and influential entertainer, Elvis Presley.

Could any of us have imagined there would still be this much interest and activity surrounding the Elvis legend three decades after his death? Well... yes.

Elvis himself was convinced he had done nothing significant enough in his career for people to remember him.

Elvis...you were SO wrong.

Quite the contrary...how could we ever forget you?

Millions of us remember you every day...when we listen to your music... or see an amazing, passionate performance or catch a glimpse of that winning "Elvis smile".

How could we cease to feel your spirit? The power and lifeforce of your presence still continues to impact us today. It's almost like you never left. We still hear your voice and feel your magic. You still have a hold on our imaginations and our hearts.

To many of us, you are as important to our lives as family, and we will never forget what you gave of yourself while you were here.

You have touched untold millions of people in a way that continues to give. Even though you are not here physically, your spirit is still very much alive and as powerful as ever.

That spirit lives on in dozens of today's entertainers. People throughout the world continue to sight the magnitude of your positive influence on their own lives and careers.

Your personal history and legend have withstood the most intense judgment...and has survived.

You were one of a kind, and there will never...CAN never... be another like you.

There's only one Elvis...and he's the only one we'll ever need.
