Elvis '57: The Final Fifties Tours; Hanson, Alan; iUniverse; 2007; 2007; 978-0-595-43122-9; English; Paperback; Online Review;

(Tuesday, 14 August 2007)

Alan Hanson's thorough research results in an excellent, detailed review of the 28 concerts that Elvis performed during three tours in 1957. Written with style, full of information, both of the shows themselves and of the events surrounding them. These were Elvis's final concerts of the 1950s. Accompanied by 18 black-and-white photos, few of which have been previously published in book form. Not a book to be missed!

Photo reportage of two concerts held on 19 July 1975 in Long Island NY. Photos accompanied by sensitive report of both concerts and followed by a brief bio. Pity about one photo that is printed in reverse (thereby showing Elvis playing guitar left-handed, as if that wasn't a give-away to the proof-reader...) and the several double-page spreads that manage to position Elvis right in the fold! Intro by David Stanley.

Subtitled "The Undiscovered King 1954 - 1958." A quite excellent review of Elvis's early touring career through Texas, from the humblest of beginnings, playing school gyms and car dealerships to a hundred or less people, to audience of thousands in huge venues. Excellently illustrated with many previously unpublished photos from the very concerts, as well as contemporary photos of the venues and fellow performers.

Beautifully printed and well bound, this book is a must for 70s concert fans.

Superb collection of texts and photos covering the last period of Elvis's career. Each tour/season is handled, accompanied by a host of colour photos from one or more shows. Many press reports are reproduced and other information such as songs and musicians used during each tour/season is also included. Beautifully published. Highly recommended!

The author followed Elvis to many concerts during the 1970s, becoming recognised and accepted by the Elvis entourage. She describes the many concerts she attended, the costumes worn, the on-stage antics. Interestingly illustrated with personal concert photos. One for the fans!
