“The girl next door” was one of the best songs on that album which is saying a lot, that album was full of great songs👍🍻
In the early years of Elvis I collected a number of his 45s. In 1970 I took them to my girlfriend's house to listen to them. That night when I go home I forgot to take them into the house and the heat from the sun made them unplayable. I was sick. I can only bet that they were pressed at Plastic Products in Memphis. Great video with a truck load of history. The song "Tragedy" was recorded by "The Fleetwoods" later and that is the version that I have always heard. Thanks Spa Guy! (Now I am going to search from one of your videos on the American studio. I hope you did one.)
OMG!! The history you uncover and share is amazing!!! 👍👍
Good old chips and good old spa man keeping us all conected amazing 👏
Thanks Johnny.. It is my pleasure to find these commonly unknown Stories..
Always enjoy your stories. What details with each one. Thank you.
This is truly some good history that you are sharing and collecting on video Spa Guy. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing! I really enjoyed watching . Long live the King of Music
Another fantastic video about Mr. Scotty Moore, the record recording and Elvis trivia Mr. Spa Guy. Thank you. I have the "Elvis Is Back" album. I believe it is one of Elvis best albums. Sad it didn't sale better.
Billy I’m just now seeing thys. I can’t believe I haven’t seen this before. What a great find. I love it.
This made me think of a story told to me by an elderly gentleman here in Central Illinois . He said our Canton Automotive received a phone call from Elvis and he needed a tow truck to help get a vehicle pulling a trailer out of a ditch on Rt 9. According to this man, Elvis told them they had to be very careful as the trailer held blank record discs coming from Chicago. I had always.wondered if this could be true. Thanks for some great history, Spa Guy!
Brilliant Spaguy Thank you for sharing this - this is history Rock n' Roll
This really take's me back to my portable record player, it would hold 45s and 73s, you could stack the record's so your music continued to play. I had all of Elvis's gospel album's and listened almost daily when I was a teenager. Elvis kept me home and out of trouble, I would rather spend time listening to Elvis.
SABDRA MAGGARD :: LOL There was no 73 ' records They were 78's !
@@chairlesnicol672 I'm getting old but yes your right . Lol.
@@sandramaggard2962 Well we won't hold that against u then! Lol
@@chairlesnicol672 Thank you! I've heard us older folks could get by with a little more! I had a collection of Elvis albums, I really should've remembered their size. I spent a lot of time babysitting to pay for them and most of my teenage years listening to them! Lol.
@@sandramaggard2962 what part of the country do u call home Sandra ?
I'm proud to be a native memphian you do a great job spy guy
I really enjoy these type of videos Spa Guy!! Keep'em coming!!
Such good historical info. Thanks, SpaGuy!
Mr. Spa . . I worked just up the street at chelsea and mclain for 3 years in 1985 . . 30 years after the pressing business , i remember driving by these quanset huts many times 😊
Very cool and very interesting 🤔
I love all this history about Elivs , Scotty , and many more . I never knew about this . Thanks for sharing Spa Guy !!
Thanks for watching Bonnie!!
oh gosh...no.... thank you for sharing all of this great information . I love it . I love to hear about all of these stories . I'm glad that all of the people that really knew Elvis shares their stories too . The good , bad , funny , and the sad parts about his life . That way people like me that didn't know him personally can share them with my family generations to come. Even my little granddaughter that's 4 year old loves Elvis Presley . She told me the other day she said , Granny... I like Elvis . I said , you do . She said , yeah I watched him on RUclips and he's handsome Granny . LOL....!!!
It was a pleasant surprise to hear you mention that Sam was in radio in Muscle Shoals. He was on WLAY. I work at WLAY. I enjoy your videos very much.
If only we could slice time and choose a different date to pop out at at the same location. I love these "It happened right here" vids
The music industry was a small circle then they all seem to intersect and cross paths, you definitely could be a private detective how you piece these things together is amazing, I'm sure the more you have done the more you find and it links from one to another.... Fine work as always thanks
Thank you friend , I enjoy your videos very much
Packed with incredible information. Didn't know any of that.
Thanks for a great video 👍
I am SO GLAD that the buildings are still standing! Seems we lose so much history to what some like to call progress.
Love it
You answered your own question as to whether Plastic products pressed 78's as well as 45's? The answer is YES, The Phillips 78 and receipt show they did. Great content as i'm finding out going through your posts.
Another interesting video.On Friday's I travel old highway 78 which is one of routes Elvis would take back in the 50's while touring.I pass old houses and think to myself,that Elvis had passed this very house back In the day.Another part of 78 runs through Leeds Alabama where Elvis stopped and had lunch one day back in the mid 50's.The reason I tell this,is like you,even concrete Elvis walked on is interesting to me.i was raised in Leeds and you can find the story and A pick of him at the restaurant back In the day.Powels Cafe I believe was the name of the Cafe.He was with friends I didn't recognize in the pic
JIMMY C So what place was Powels Cafe ?
Hi Spa Guy....I love your videos and I also love your respect and love for anything Elvis....I have been a huge Elvis fan all my life. I am planning a visit to Memphis this coming January...I was there in 1987 at the age of 21 and it was really great....I am a guitar player/singer who has played in pubs and bars as a sideline ..Also did singing Elvis telegrams.......the strangest thing about that is, when I play an Elvis number people love it and they ask me "what was that song you did that goes bla bla bla"?....and I say...."oh , that was one night by Elvis or Tryin' to get to you" (or whatever other song it may have been)...they look at me like I am from another planet, but they say ..."Geez ...that was cool"...That's when I say...."get on youtube and look up Elvis!!!!! Once you know him...it's impossible to Unknow him!!!!! anyway...would love to meet you.
You did a lot of research for this video . You do have a lot of great photos and fax about it all . I do like the story about Elvis is back !!!! Thank you for all of you hard work on all of your videos I have enjoyed it a lot God bless !!!Take care .
Thank you for watching Brad..
Just great thanks !!!
:-"}.

Thank You Joe..
Thomas Wayne was great. I remember "Tragedy".
Awesome video!
Thank you for all that you do!!
I am amazed at your knowledge on everything Elvis, etc...
Safe travels, Friend!
Thanks again Spa guy. Amazing as ever.
Amazing how things can be intertwined like that, thanks again for the great insight!
Thank You. Spa Guy. I love this. Thsnks
That's so cool. Thanks again for your video's.
excellent research, another piece in the puzzle
Thanks for posting... enjoyed 😁
Thanks for watching Zack, Spa Guy
Thank Yo again.
Great info
Thank You Vashsant..
That was incredible
I just wanted to let you know that I really enjoy all of the videos you do on Elvis Presley. I am hooked on them.
Thanks Dennis, What kind of Tele is that on your header? Spa Guy
It was made by Marksound guitars. I was wanting one that looked like the one Brad Paisley played on his Water video. They do great work and at a good price. www.marksoundguitars.com/
Thankyou,a very interesting video, always good.
Thanks EG!!
Thanks for the video and the info my friend
Greetings from Far East Spaguy ! Arigato!
Arigato Tim!!
Respect
Who knew there was a big lake, & a beach right there?? Pretty cool! Nice video!
Thanks Richard.. If it wasn't for the Glory we would not have known.. You cannot see any of that from the ground..
Billy, you missed one more Elvis-link here.... Elvis actually recorded "This Time". It's a informal recording (medley) with I can't stop Loving you. On the "Essential 60's Masters"
On the Joe Hill Louis single, I noticed the co-writer of both sides was a *Phillips* ... It would appear that Sam, as was the custom back in those days, slapped himself on as co-writer, even though it was strictly a Louis composition. In fact, on "Boogie In The Park", Joe played guitar and drums on the recording *at the same time.*
Today would of been Elvis' 83 birthday...January 8, 2018.
Never saw Scotty playing a Fender before.
Another Great Video , Love the Historical sites of these , and I never knew Thomas Wayne Wrote The Girl Next Door . Keep them Coming . How about The Church Elvis Attended in Memphis as a Teenager is it Still There ? Thanks
🎸🎶🎶🎶🕺
Do you know if Elvis ever got to meet John Wayne and the story surrounding it? Were any photos taken or if Elvis even collected photos and autographs of his favorite stars? That might be a question to ask an "insider" sometime.
Nice video history lesson on the 45 rpm in Memphis. Billy any idea what is in those buildings now?
Stude it is a Estate Sale Business now..
Does anyone know where I could get some of my records replaced ? Been collecting since I was a kid and needless to say as a kid some are trashed even though I still have them . Thanks so much for all you do Spa Guy !
Fantastic Sherlock Holmes !!
Great story
Hey Pal...hope all is well. I really do enjoy your videos, and didn't know you were also a picker...Holy Mackerel!!. Anyway, Paul McCartney released 'Tragedy'...didn't know if you knew that, but do a search on youtube and his recording comes up, and it sounds really good. Take care and "Tighten up every...."
cool video
As always thanks for the awesome info!!! It is weird to see Scotty with a Tele. I know he had one that he played on in the Navy. I wonder why he played it than his Gibson? I would assume he still had his Gibson Super 400 at that time.
Yes that is Scotties 1953 Telecaster.. It may have been more conducive to the sound for Thomas Wayne.. At that time he would have had the ES295 and a Super 400 too and more..
Spa Guy Well Correct me if I am wrong but, I thought Scotty traded in his Tele for the Es-295. The he traded in his Es-295 for the Gibson L5 and had to put more money down as well. Then he traded in that for his first Super 400. If I remember right I read this in Scotty's book and is on his website.
Very possible I have never studied it.. I know in the early days Scotty didn't value any particular guitar so he never really kept any particular one.. If thats what the book said I imagine it would be true.. I know I never saw a Es295 or a Tele in his collection.. The only guitar he seemed to value was the Gibson Prototype that Chet gave him for some old pics.. He thought so much of it he has a copy of it made so he would not have to play it out..
Spa Guy Yeah, I remember him getting the Chet Atkins one from Gibson as well. From what I have read, the way I worded it above is what happened. Except, he kept the L5 till later he sold it. He obtained the Super 400 from Gibson for free through sponsorship. From I read too is he had a 52 Fender Esquire Tele. Maybe he borrowed it. Who knows. We can't always have the answers sadly. Haha. Keep up the awesome work. I get to live through your videos by seeing the actual historical places where the history took place. I wish I could see it in person. But, sadly not living Tennessee and living about 9 hrs away it is hard to not be able to see those places. I learn much from your videos as well. I enjoy them very much. Thanks again!
Another great video from The Spaguy. Thank you and cheers from Perth Australia.
Cheers Craig.. Spa Guy
That’s so incredible to see those old buildings that printed the vinyl. That check from Sam has Payola written all over it. :) I dig the music at the end. Where do you find such cool funk disco tracks? I dig it man.
Thanks Man.. all of the tracks I use, I recorded.. I enjoy making music and the videos give me places put the tracks.. Thanks for watching... Spa Guy
Spa Guy I would buy an album if you had one. I dig it man. Well recorded as well. It’s like a Funk Disco Jazz vibe. You should check out a band called JungleFire or 00Soul. Or Medeski Martin and wood an album they did with John Schofield called Combustication. You will dig it.
That’s very cool. What are those units used for these days spa guy?
They are used for a Estate Sale business.. They bring the stuff there to price it and get it ready to sell..

I was never aware of either of these songs until I watched this video. Thanks, Spa Guy!!!
Elvis s A Legend The only True King Next To Jesus
Billy that guy on here was talking about records melting. Were these buildings air conditioned? If not how dud they keep them from getting too hot and ruining the records.
I imagine they would of had to have A/C of some sort but I don't know..
Is it possible that there are still some records left in these huts
No the operations were move to another state and everything was moved..
@@SpaGuy Would have been real nice if some were left behind and there was a way to get in to grab them
I am wondering what is left inside those huts
Isn't "706" the same address # as Forrest Bobo's was in Tupelo ?
Close Bobo's was 607..
@@SpaGuy Darn. Oh well, it's still kind of an interesting coincidence.
wasn't Chips associated with the Swampers or am I thinking of someone else
D***! Spaguy! (That's as close to cursing as I like to get.)Man, you blew me away once again. I knew the story of Sam Phillips. The rest nothing!!! I'm an idiot next to you! Write a book on "E" trivia. Bestseller: Bids on first copy please.
