P.J.Proby seen in 1964 on the TV show "Around The Beatles".He came over to England from Texas & became an overnight sensation. P.J. is now 80 & still amazing. He loves England & has lived there since 1966.
Thanks rontenn 1, I sometimes work around Huddersfield, so I will stop thinking I may meet that great man, I need to go further south of Yorkshire pal.
Met PJ Proby when he was appearing in Elvis the Musical at the Astoria Tottenham court Road in 1978...Shakin'Stevens was also appearing..PJ played the part of the elder Elvis while Shaky played the middle years during 60's/early 70.s........I was working backstage at the time and it was a great experience
Je découvre ce chanteur des années 60 que je ne connaissais pas et je suis surpris de sa voix grave et puissante qui rappelle celle du king ! comment se fait il qu'il n'ait pas été davantage connu en Europe et surtout en France , on est passé à coté d'un chanteur hyper talentueux qui je l'espère a du faire une immense carrière , bravo Jimmy !
Thank you Mr John ! Je ne le connaissais pas du tout. Please, have you "Trains and boats and planes", que Claude François a chanté en français ? Salutations.
This is my first encounter with pj. He was and is a great singer... a legend in his life time
And I’m so pleased I live in his life time.
The greatest rendition of that song that I've heard. Always thought that he has been underrated.
I thought it was Elvis Presley at first...amazing voice.
Yup, lots of Elvis in him. In fact, they sang together a lot.
Fantastic voice
P.J. is now 83 and he's still unique & amazing! In Blackpool on Easter Sunday,April 17th,2022 he will be doing an amazing big, big 'live" stage show.
This takes my breath away. Masterpiece.

Great vocal
never realised how much like Elvis is was
Brilliant !!
Great voice
The Voice Elvis wish he had !.. probably !
he did many demos for Elvis...he worked for him
If that were true, everyone would remember PJ, and not Elvis.
Nice try.

Beautiful
Un genio, lo superaba ampliamente a Elvis ( un estereotipado).....
This is actually from Around the Beatles TV show. The Beatles can be briefly seen in the opening seconds of the clip.
PJ I believe
Thumbs up friend
He used to sing the songs that elvis recorded ,elvis wanted to hear his version first to hear what it would sound like
And then Beatles copied him as well
Maravilhoso!!!
In the 1960s he recorded demo tapes for Elvis.

Louise Julia Cousin Sorry I don't have that one.
John1948Ten Thank you very much for your answer. It doesn't matter. In fact, I'm a Rick Nelson's fan. I'm a French woman, and I was born in 1947 !
Uncanny likeness to The King, in face and voice.
He looks like he could have played Robin Hood very well, just a random thought xD
I love random thoughts and it’s true we can all see it now haha
shame the video is just slightly out of sync with the sound, superb voice.
The two thumbs down are obviously fans of Elvis lol
Sounds like he is doing an Elvis impersonation.
