E.I.N.'s media monitor coms up with this interview which dates from 04-15-1999, so over a year ago, but it is a nice insight in Elvis' character, so we decided to put it online.

In his introduction to Last Train to Memphis Peter Guralnick wrote that his goal as a biographer was no less than to "rescue Elvis Presley from the dreary bondage of myth, from the oppressive aftershock of cultural significance." It's a mission that Peter Guralnick continues in the second, darker installment of his Elvis biography.
Careless Love: The Unmaking of Elvis Presley. The book follows Elvis from the height of his fame in the late '50s, to his early death in 1977.
