Elvis Presley – Concerts and Rehearsals from 1944 to 1977
“Elvis Presley – Concerts and Rehearsals from 1944 to 1977” è il titolo di un nuovo E-Book dell’autore Italiano Marco Durzu che offre informazioni sull’attività dal vivo di Elvis dal 1944 al 1977 con informazioni dettagliate sulla scaletta degli spettacoli ed eventuali fonti audio esistenti sugli stessi: pubblicazioni ufficiali e bootlegs, siano esse audience recordings o soundboards. Ma non solo: vengono anche indicati tutti i video esistenti dei vari concerti.
Il libro è scritto in lingua inglese ed è composto da 437 pagine.
“Suona” molto simile a quello scritto nel 2012 da Sebastiano Cecere…
