THE ELVIS PRESLEY STORY VOL. 1

THE ELVIS PRESLEY STORY VOL. 2 – 4 CD BOX SET
This amazing 13-hour documentary is based on 3 years of intense work by author Jerry Hopkins.
Sir. Hopkins ‘book ELVIS – A BIOGRAPHY has been named the ultimate book about Elvis’ life.
This radio special was broadcasted in over 250 major cities in the United States, and the rest of the world, and was first released as a vinyl boxset containing 13 pcs. vinyls and a 10 pcs. cassette tapes.
Both releases are ULTRA RARE today!
The host of this documentary is a man named Wink Martindale. He was initially chosen as a skilled “storyteller”, but it turns out that Wink hosted the WHBQ in Memphis when Elvis first recorded in 1954, and has on several occasions interviewed Elvis for both radio and television – several of you can find these interviews in the box here – as well as a lot of other rare material.
