    I have about 90 per cent of these great books...what a great episode!.....a while ago i was thinking how we snuck up under a fence and up a ravine and saw Elvis singing inside Rocco Place ...it was just so awesome back in 67 but i do kinda feel bad poor Elvis had no privacy (but it was a great experience for sure!! One of my great adventures as an Elvis fan!!! 😅) Love those books!!!

      Thank you, as always, for sharing your personal memories with me. I always appreciate it when you do that. It may be the style of writing that the book was done in that rubbed me wrong. It just made me feel bad for him the way he was chased down. I’m still glad to have the book, but I can’t say I felt good after reading it. The other is not so much. I enjoyed the others immensely. Thanks as always for watching.

    It looked so beautiful with the red tile! Too bad they couldn't keep it that way.

      I agree….! I can see the point of the insurance companies issue. Also after all these decades and millions of people walking on them they would have been worn and ragged by now. Unfortunate, but the right move to make.

      @@TheElvisWorkshop I just really wish they had left the inside of Graceland the way it was when he died, even though it did look like a bordello; even Linda said that, but that's how he wanted it at the time. I understand why they wanted it more classic - who needed more people snickering about Elvis - like a walk-in Elvis on black velvet painting. Still, it's kind of sad to me that if he could magically come back, he wouldn't recognize it. Slowly (and sometimes not slowly) there's less and less of Elvis the real human left.

      That’s funny! I’m sure he felt like an ass after getting into theirs on his mistake!

    How about the craziness of Jerry Lee Lewis running into the gates drunk with a gun on the dash in 76? I need to get the Nancy Rooks book.

    Just talking about the maid seeing E being brought down on 8/16 made me stop the video and think. I e been in her shoes with my father, and a few friends. It’s a terrible place!! And you can’t “un-see” it! Ever!

    I have so many things I want to say. First, I’m in tears, but you knew that didn’t you? Second, the part about the fans and the codes to stalk him, etc., I hate to admit it, but that would have been me. Lastly, I know a friend of yours who would love a piece of tile to go with her bricks… just sayin.

    Hey Rick doesn't Nancy Rooks say in that book that she was there when Vernon told Ginger to leave and not come back. I think she says Ginger was on the stairs and Vernon was at the foot. It was a long time ago I read it. Ginger refutes this but it seems such a weird thing to put in your book if it was untrue.

    • @TheElvisWorkshop

      I have no reason to believe anything Nancy wrote isn’t true. She didn’t ever seem to have an agenda. If she said it, I take it at face value. I believe her.
