Muskrat already did.

1) The basics about his career and life up to early stardom are fairly well-documented.
2) I realized I knew very little about his career in the 60s other than the Memphis sessions, the Comeback Special and a whole lot of bad movies. I knew there had to be more to it, which the book has confirmed.
3) I saw it used before I saw the first, and it was cheaper.
I'll probably read the first later, but I'll still be on this one for a while. It's pretty weighty.
Oh, I've found one huge error in it that I'm disappointed nobody caught. On page 238, there is a reference to "expatriate Elvis imitator P.F. Sloan." Errr, I think you mean P.J. Proby? Hopefully it was corrected in later editions, what I have appears to be a first printing.

Though I'd take issue with the dishonesty bit. Would you say the same about SInatra?

That the current rock mythology has Kraftwerk looming larger than Presley says all that needs to be said about the Kool-Aid being imbibed around these parts.
You really don't understand modern music at all do you? Rock n roll died years ago. Hip hop and dance took over.
