Summary: bootleg elvis
Review: i bought this book a few years ago to compare the
recorded amounts of unauthorized material
and knowing if i had ever kept up with
the out put, from the time i was a teenager.

the book was historical, informative and shows
what exactly what the fans, collectors want.

it's a must have book for a serious collector

Rating:
Summary: Excellent resource, needs to be updated
Review: I have had this book for many years, and as of the publication date it was the most complete source available for the illegal recordings of Elvis Presley. Cotten and Dewitt must have heard every single Elvis bootleg record ever issued, and the authors provide information of when the recordings were made, the packaging, and highlights of each record. The book is a consumer guide of sorts directing collectors to the best bootlegs available.

Of course, the main problem with this book is that it is close to twenty years old. I would like to see an updated book, which would include CD issues.
