Didnt Tunzi do an Aloha book already? Now we are getting recylced books at over $50.00 a pop?

Well, this must be the "alternate" Aloha then by Tunzi...;-)

Wow! Really looking forward to read a book about a subject that I know nothing about. Why not do the same thing about comeback special. No, let´s get serious. Books about those events is as boring as budget albums from the fifties. How many more stories are there to tell? People will lose their interest for this show if this will continue, I´ve already lost mine.

If there'll be new pictures it'll be worthwhile to buy it.So let's wait untill we know and see the content of this forthcoming book instead of smashing it down before it's release. Steve V, I once wrote I'd like to read your comments, and, in a way, I still do, but how come for the last couple of weeks (months ?) your comments are about 85% always negative ? Nothing personal of course! Always El.

Benny Scott - when i see something I feel is very positive I say so. The last couple of weeks I havent. Its not negative against Elvis, its negative on what I see coming out. I dont have to love all these products. My feelings on the Camdens are honest, they are cheesy, and the direction FTD is going with the classic series. I was not negative on the Christmas duets CD if you noticed. As for this book, how many more new pictures can there be and if there are new ones, how much different can they be? Its still Elvis in the eagle jumpsuit on stage in a different angle for over 50.00. Not worth it to me. Now 68 at 40 was worth it since it was more a Steve Binder book than a Tunzi book. It was a great read. I totally endorsed that book! So maybe this will be the equivalent, we'll see.

Steve is right. I don´t think there is an elvis fan in the world who has missed this show. We know the show so well, so even if the pictures is new, they are not "really, really new". And Jessie Garon - I am not making a drama out of this. I just feel that there is too much focus on Comeback special and Aloha. It´s almost like the fifties now. That´s not good, cause his career had so many more highlights.

If he had been managed by a real manager and made better choices he would have never needed a comback,the alternate aloha is the one i watch not the original which is like a movie script!

well I just love new picture books, I love them. I love to sit in my 'Elvis-room' with my Elvis-posters and statues, picture discs, Elvis cd's, vinyl's, books, cards, dvd's, ftd's, teddy's. So this release is very welcome to spend more time witrh Elvis instead of my study, work, wife, children, social life. Love it!..

Anyone know exactly what "Ho'i Hou" means? My guess is that it is something like "The return", or "Welcome back", but any Hawaiian speakers out there know for sure?

Way off,it means "your money",i know i couldnt believe it myself!
