Goin' Back to Memphis by James Dickerson

Goin' Back to Memphis is an engaging survey of the town and its characters.

Dickerson, James L.: - After a career as a journalist for three Pulitzer Prize winning dailies, The Commercial Appeal of Memphis, the Clarion Ledger-Jackson Daily News, and the Delta Democrat-Times of Greenville (MS), James L. Dickerson began a career as a full-time author. His book Colonel Tom Parker: The Curious Life of Elvis Presley's Eccentric Manager was purchased by Warner Bros. for its upcoming Elvis movie starring Tom Hanks as Colonel Parker. His book Mojo Triangle: Birthplace of Country, Blues, Jazz and Rock 'n' Roll earned a first place award from the Independent Publishers Association, and two music-related books, Goin' Back to Memphis (since republished as Memphis Going Down) and That's Alright, Elvis, co-written with Elvis Presley's first guitarist, Scotty Moore, were finalists for the prestigious Gleason Award (formerly presented by Rolling Stone, BMI, and New York University). The authorized biographer, Dickerson co-wrote a second book with Scotty Moore titled Scotty & Elvis. He is the author of the first comprehensive book about women in music, Women on Top: The Quiet Revolution That's Rocking the American Music Industry, published in 1998 by Billboard Books. Dickerson was the editor and publisher of Nine-O-One Network, at one time the third largest circulation music magazine in the United States, behind Rolling Stone and Spin. The magazine was the first magazine published in the South to obtain newsstand distribution in all 50 states. The magazine also had distribution in most European countries.
