His Majesty Carl XVI Gustaf will surely agree that there is another king of Sweden: Elvis Presley.
One of the extraordinary facets of the Elvis phenomenon is the sensational amount of connections he has with our country. He almost had a Swedish wife. His favourite song was Swedish. A young Swedish girl got the nickname 'Sweden' from him. He had a Swedish pianist. A tiny Swedish girl corresponded with Elvis. Two Swedish businessmen attempted to lure Elvis to Sweden with the aid of the world's largest dalecarlia horse...and much, much more. All in colour with around 800 pictures.
'Elvis - Kung Av Sverige' (Elvis - King Of Sweden) contains lots of exciting tales, entertaining curiosities and interesting facts about Elvis and all his Swedish connections. And it's all in Swedish, too.
Here is a complete Elvis filmography with all his Swedish movie posters depicted in glorious colour, plus hilarious excerpts from the reviews of the time.
The book is rounded off with a comprehensive, illustrated discography spanning 70 pages. For the first time you can see 400 Elvis records in full colour. Both the original US releases and those officially issued in Sweden. A priceguide offers the chance of checking if you have any collectors items in your own collection.
The author is Börje Lundberg, one of Sweden's best-known journalists, who has himself met Elvis.
Along with the first edition of the book came a 4 track BMG/RCA CD: Good Rockin' Tonight'.
