Following is a 'basic review' and importantly a warning about buying the book, 'Filming Girl Happy' from contributor Nigel Goodall. Today I received the Chris Noel book, 'Filming Girl Happy'. I have to say what a huge disappointment it is!! The quality of the photographs and images inside the book and on the cover are diabolical - ALL are out of focus and blurred. There is nothing in this book to recommend it.

There is not much in the text either to recommend it. Sadly it is a book that is another example of how a bit part actress cashes in on Elvis' name just because she had a few minutes of on-screen time with him.

Elvis Presley Video Tupelo's Own Elvis Presley DVD

Never before have we seen an Elvis Presley concert from the 1950's with sound. Until Now! The DVD Contains recently discovered unreleased film of Elvis performing 6 songs, including Heartbreak Hotel and Don't Be Cruel, live in Tupelo Mississippi 1956. Included we see a live performance of the elusive Long Tall Sally seen here for the first time ever. + Plus Bonus DVD Audio.

This is an excellent release no fan should be without it.

The 'parade' footage is good to see as it puts you in the right context with color and b&w footage. The interviews of Elvis' Parents are well worth hearing too. The afternoon show footage is wonderful and electrifying : Here is Elvis in his prime rocking and rolling in front of 11.000 people. Highly recommended.
