While this thoroughly enjoyable book deftly describes his many adventures with Elvis and other notables, including the Beatles, Ann-Margret, the Beach Boys and Billy Joel, the heart of it is his many observations of Elvis's inner exploration. From Publishers Weekly In 1954, at age 12, Schilling first met fellow Memphis homeboy Presley, a 19-year-old truck driver "a year out of high school and less than a week into a recording career that carried no guarantee of turning into steady work." He provides a fascinating view of Memphis in the late '50s, but most of his memoir is from after 1964, when he officially joined the retinue of friends—the "Memphis Mafia"—that served as Elvis's surrogate family.

I had the honor of meeting Jerry Schilling in Tupelo, Mississippi in June 2015. What a kind and nice man. He is just as gentle as his voice (if you've ever heard him speak either in person or on Elvis satellite radio). It was awesome to finally meet one of Elvis's best friends.. 015.

"Outstanding, Fresh, New Elvis Stories from a Close Friend" according to Matthew E. Vance. I have read a lot of books about Elvis, including what I imagine most people would consider the definitive biography by Peter Guralnick, and I was very pleased to see that Jerry Schilling had finally written a book. I knew he had been part of Elvis' guys, and I knew that Priscilla, Lisa and EPE still considered him a fr
Me and a Guy Named Elvis looks at Presley from a friend’s perspective, offering readers the man rather than the icon — including insights into the creative frustrations that lead to Elvis’s abuse of prescription medicine and his tragic death. In 1964, Elvis invited Jerry to work for him as part of his "Memphis Mafia," and Jerry soon found himself living with Elvis full-time in a Bel Air mansion and, later, in his own room at Graceland. Over the next thirteen years Jerry would work for Elvis in various capacities — from bodyguard to photo double to co-executive producer on a karate film. The two became fast friends, even as Elvis turned into the world’s biggest star. These vivid memories will be priceless to Elvis’s millions of fans, and the compelling story will fascinate an even wider audience.. On a lazy Sunday in 1954, twelve-year-old Jerry Schilling wandered into a Memphis touch football game, only to discover that his team was quarterbacked by a nineteen-year-old Elvis Presley, the local teenager whose first record, "That’s All Right," had just debuted on Memphis radio.
