Scotty Moore is the reason I wanted to play Guitar like him after seeing Elvis live in Greensboro, N.C. at the National Theatre on Feb 6, 1956. I bought and wore out all the Sun recordings listening to and learning to play Guitar. I Loved Mystery Train, Baby, Let's Play House, My Baby Left Me, Good Rockin' Tonight, Milk Cow Blues Boogie and so many many more. RIP Scotty and Thank you my friend.
yep same here .1st heard Elvis when I was 15 in 1955. can play so.e of the solos ,but as you know must of those great old early sun records were in the same 3 chords.I had a great early on teacher in a guy i met in 59 ( he was 16 i think ) Albert Lee.
Only people who understand the history of rock n roll can truly appreciate the historic significance of this recording session. Amazing history here. Legends. All stars. Amazing to be able to have seen and heard this considering I’m only 40 and way to young to have ever been able to see Elvis or the Beatles live. And for Paul McCartney, I’m guessing this session was one of his lifetime bucket list fulfillments. This song and the man who recorded it with Scotty and DJ in that little studio in Memphis, Tennessee 64 years ago changed music, and the life of 4 kids from Liverpool England
Very nice, but DJ was not there. That's Alright Mama was recorded in 1954 in Sun Studio by Elvis Presley, Scotty Moore and Bill Black. DJ Fontana would joy the group later
I just have to get this off my chest. I hate when any of the Beatles cover Elvis if you read all their interviews it’s like a rollercoaster one minute love then hate then anger. It literally changes with every interview Besides they can not do any improving of elvises songs. They do have the writing skills but Elvis kills them with vocals charisma sexiness and live performing. Their at their best locked up in the studio
@@michaeliacangelo5646 Elvis is my first and only, but I so disagree with you. Independent of each other, Paul and John said there would be no Beatles without Elvis. Paul has talked adoringly of Elvis in most interviews I've seen. He owns the Bill Black bass and is singing Heartbreak Hotel on You Tube playing it. He was at Graceland several years ago. At the grave, he placed a guitar pick and said for him to use in Heaven. I found out recently that while there he got to go into the secret archive building where you have to wear gloves to touch anything. He was the last person to play Elvis' famous guitar that is shown all over the internet of Austin Butler posing with it in the Jungle Room.. The head of archives presented it to Butler for a photo. When John Lennon dressed up to go out, he wore a diamond ELVIS in cursive lapel pin. Sean wore it with Julian to present an award to Elvis. On You Tube. There's fake stories out there about the Nixon visit regarding the Beatles that just ARE NOT TRUE! (DO NOT believe that awful Nixon movie! Not true!) I met the people who were there. It is also posted on You Tube. I get so tired of outright lies, as if it''s truth posted about Elvis..
I'm "only" 74, but still remember my older sister coming home from an Elvis concert in the mid or late '50's. What I remember was how weird she was acting..., she still all revved up, pretty funny!
Guess i’ll spell this out for everybody: paul mccartney telling these two random old guys to stop fucking around is a joke, because these two random old guys were famous before he was and he learned how to play from listening to their records. Scotty Moore. the guitarist in this video, is literally the guitarist on the elvis record. The ‘joke’, which isn’t funny now that it has to be explained, is that he, this person who learned how to play from these masters, is telling them they have to be professional and stop having any fun. This is nothing BUT fun for PM, who you can tell is absolutely beyond himself just to be in the same room as these two legends, despite being a legend himself.
Yes, and the ADD videographer missing a historic opportunity of capturing Moore as he played perhaps the most important rock song of all times. Instead we get to see McCartney's face and just about anything else, save for a couple snippets of Moore. Now I dislike McCartney even more.
@@locarnese5598 Good point, I was digging watching what Scotty was playing, lol, not even really carrying what Paul was doing, just waiting for those few seconds showing what Scotty was playing.
To say Paul is one of the best vocalist of all time is not only absurd and laughable but totally false on his very best day he couldn’t come close to elvises voice on his worst I wouldn’t even put McCartney in the top 50 male vocalists of the century. Very mediocre voice and wildly overrated
@@michaeliacangelo5646 His voice isn't mediocre though, he was blessed to have one of the highest pitched vocals in the music industry and he's known to be the man of 1000 voices. Also keep in mind he was 60 in this clip
Scotty and DJ are class acts.. I met them a while ago. Hung out with them for 2 hours. Had my guitar autographed by them... rest in peace scotty and DJ
This was one of Paul McCartney’s earliest songs to listen to, he played it with the Beatles (their version is absolutely fantastic!), this must have brought him fond memories of his early years, and I think he’d never imagined then that one day he’d be playing it with Elvis Presley’s band! This is pure gold.
You forgot to mention DJ Fontana on drums. And if Sir Paul was pluckin a slap bass instead of his Hoffner, Elvis and Bill would have entered the building.
do you know if DJ Fontana lives today? b'cuz in an concert or something i saw, from 2012 or 2014, then I saw him behind the drums....and i had 2 say to myself that it MUST be DJ Fontana.... he is so old =P
Siri-Anne Moen Yes he is still alive and playing on tour. I met D.J. in Nashville Airport in 2012. One of the nicest men I ever met! God bless you D.J.
I was a little young to know about Scotty Moore when my sister was listening to Elvis. I heard about Scotty Moore from a Jimmy Page magazine article. Scotty helped form a lot of guitar players. Incredible guitar player! Thank you Paul!
@@judefernandez827 Anyone who derides this version by Paul is brain dead where music and performance is concerned, and I'm an Elvis fan, Now or Never my fav over some great Opera permances
Absolutely loved this, thank you Paul............Scotty and DJ.......RIP Scotty, and of course, the King. At the age of 14, I was actually one of the first to purchase those 45's..........Yeah, all from SUN. The King changed the World, before the music was by Patti Page, HOW MUCH IS THAT DOGGY IN THE WINDOW. THANK GOD, and they didn't run Elvis out of town.
Imagine singing with one of your boyhood hero's band. Here it is. Scotty sounds great, Paul sounds great. Wow ! I only wished they showed more of Scotty when he did his break.
Very nice. Excellent. Very gentle, no exaggeration, and you almost sound just like him. I love how you felt very serious about it. I love music. Let's never forget his inspiration, "Big Boy," Crudup. Mixing gospel with a dark sound. I don't know what life is without music. When I die, I will get to actually see the color of the music. The sound of the color. I can't wait to see the colors we can't imagine these songs will make in the afterlife.
I didn't have to convince my daughter about how great the Beatles were, I showed her a couple of songs and how they change from the fifties to the seventies and she was blown away! Even when they fought their music said it all and sadly when George and John passed away Paul and Ringo manage to write some beautiful music about their mates! True professionals all of them! Paul and the boys sound dam good here!
Amazing what the *right* three piece band can create. DJ's solid, subtle foundation, Scotty's casual precision and Macca's bass and vocal dancing on top.
Paul's been playing some version of this song since he was 15 yrs old. Fun to watch all of them watching him to get timing set up. "Fun's, fun but this is Elvis we're doing here fellas"...
This is a great version of this song. I can just picture young Paul lying in bed with the lights off singing along to the original version of this - dreaming of someday becoming a big star. The guitar work in this song is outstanding. Thanks for the posting.
*The drummer :* _Dominic Joseph ( DJ ) Fontana_ was an American musician best known as the drummer for Elvis Presley for 14 years. In October 1954 he was hired to play drums for Presley, which marked the beginning of a fifteen-year relationship. He played on over 460 RCA cuts with Elvis. Wikipedia Born: March 15, 1931, Shreveport, LA Died: June 13, 2018, Nashville, TN
I have heard "thats alright" many many times. And I have to give credit to McCartney. He does an excellent job in capturing the song. I'd really like to hear some more Elvis songs from him!
The world loves Paul McCartney.And if we’re going to talk about ego’s, which is not fair, let’s be frank no one had a bigger ego than Elvis.I recorded that song on my iPhone I’d love Paul to take a listen
I'm so glad that Paul sings the nice song called "that's all right mama" which Elvis had sung before. Of course, Paul's singing is as marvelous as Elvis! He has brought an additioal value into this song. Next, I'd like to hope that Paul will sing Elvis' thrilling song called "One night" that makes us feel "Rhythm and Blues" spirit. From Tokyo
@@TheGreekPoet it "came" about when EP single-handedly used the song as a device to INVENT "Rockabilly",,,,he made it what it was. a new style...he could have used any song....witness the flip side of this song in '54....EP took the COUNTRY song "Blue Moon of Kentucky" and also turned IT into "Rockabilly."
@@TheGreekPoet it was Scotty who told Sam Phillips at Sun Records that Elvis had potential, and at the first recording session, when Elvis spontaneously turned the slow song "That's Alright" into an up tempo rockabilly rave up, Scotty created the catchy lead guitar throughout the song that gave it the drive it needed. So he WAS the architect and Elvis was the "builder"
Scotty and DJ, the music sounded just like the original, it made my spine tingle, Scotty's guitar sound was exactly the same as it was in the early days, real grit music, and sadly missed.
Wow! That was pure music to my ears, and I've just listened to Presley's original version. So poignant considering the tragic death of Macca's mother. You've done both of them proud, Paul. Paul, you're one hell of a guy!
Paul McCartney Sings Elvis First Recorded RCA Record so well! Elvis would have so Happy and So Proud to know and hear it!!! This was the VERY FIRST SONG ELVIS that catapulted Elvis to Stardom and I know Elvis would have love to sing it with Paul had he been still alive today!!! 🙏😁👍 God I love how Paul sang it!!! A Tribute to the King 👑 of Rock ‘N Roll Elvis!!! 😇😉❤️
To me he is not wanting to be better, or imitate Elvis, for me he's paying homage, as all Beatles always said Elvis fans. A well-known phrase of John Lenon he said: "Before Elvis there was nothing" Beautiful tribute, Elvis has always been and always will be the best.
Most elvis songs are old blues songs blues had a baby and called it rock and roll black slang for sex little Richard says it best in good golly miss molly even though he's as gay as the day is long
blaster88778 Many artists during and before that era didn't write their own material including Sinatra, Ellla, Billi Holiday et al, Elvis made these songs his own and his version is way different to the original. It is a race issue and if Elvis was black it wouldn't be a problem. A black artist called Big Mama Thorton recorded "hound Dog" which was written by two white jews, Leiber and Stoller (who wrote for many black artists) but no one says they stole music from the jews. Many of the artists Elvis covered wouldn't have seen the light of day if it wasn't for him. Everyone is influenced by everyone black or white. Stealing is when you cover something verbatim. Elvis transformed those early blues songs into a music form called "rockabilly" Everyone who covers the song does the Elvis version. Crudup's version is simple 12 bar R & B. Many black greats like Howlin Wolf, Jackie Wilson, BB King, James Brown and Fats Domino weren't bitter about Elvis' fame and acknowledge his originality
There are some artists that even the most accomplished performers recognize as being an inspiration to what they eventually become. For Paul his respect to Elvis' was this magnificent tip o the derby. His take on the classic blues standard which Elvis covered, was equally beautiful. Every once in a while, sing like your heroes. It just feels so good to give their work new life. Mine is covering John with Revolution and In My Life. Paul with that band is a pearl. Let him shine with it. If you don't agree, just shut up and go away.
Wonderful to hear a bunch of "geezers" sounding so great. In January 2019 I spotted a billboard for a McCartney concert. I was in a small bus going to the airport in Santiago Chile. International appeal for a true craftsman.
I was always impressed with the respect that Paul McCartney showed to everyone/everything that came before him - starting with his earliest Beatles days and right up to the present time.
He was very diplomatic, and far too much so to tell the truth about people such as Pelvis.
Who cares? What else was he supposed to do?
Scottie el mejor!
I was their in the beginning.
Elvis was the same.
This is incredible! A Beatle singing with Elvis’s original band! And it sounds great! History in the making!

Missing is Billy Black

Paul never forgets his original inspirations it amazing that such a talented writer and performer still enjoys his early heros a true genius.
Oh man he's got a great voice for this!
Hey, that kid on bass singing is pretty good.
Yes and part of the greatest song writing team in history.
LOL.
@@Pamledger478 well..well .I head from this Lennon fellow: Thank you....this new fellow seems interesting.
Yeah he might make it one day
He should be in a band for sure
I have heard "thats alright" many many times. And I have to give credit to McCartney. He does an excellent job in capturing the song. I'd really like to hear some more Elvis songs from him!
I heard Paul wrote Name and address for Elvis, but unfortunatly it was 2 late
The world loves Paul McCartney.And if we’re going to talk about ego’s, which is not fair, let’s be frank no one had a bigger ego than Elvis.I recorded that song on my iPhone I’d love Paul to take a listen
Is fantastic listening sir Paul with original band of that all right mama
Elvis and Paul, I could listen to both all day long!
Watching Paul emulate Elvis is GOLD
Looks like that singer has some talent. He should perform at some talent show. Maybe he will be famous some day. Mark my words.
Parmis !es meilleurs depuis très longtemps !!!! ne changez rien !!!!
wow this is the best paul i have seen in a long time
Have heard a few artists performing this, but Paul McCartney knows how to sell it.
I'm so glad that Paul sings the nice song called "that's all right mama" which Elvis had sung before.
Of course, Paul's singing is as marvelous as Elvis!
He has brought an additioal value into this song.
Next, I'd like to hope that Paul will sing Elvis' thrilling song called "One night" that makes us feel "Rhythm and Blues" spirit.

Arfhur Cradup wrote and sang this song i in the 1940's . great Blues Singer
RIP, Scotty... you were the architect, and you deserve all the praise.
Scotty wasn't the architect of anything. He was a good session guitarist. Do you even have an idea how That's Alright came about?
How old was he in this video
@@TheGreekPoet you need to listen to all of the praise his fellow musicians gives him in regards to that. Just saying he isn‘t doesn‘t make you right
@@TheGreekPoet it "came" about when EP single-handedly used the song as a device to INVENT "Rockabilly",,,,he made it what it was. a new style...he could have used any song....witness the flip side of this song in '54....EP took the COUNTRY song "Blue Moon of Kentucky" and also turned IT into "Rockabilly."
@@TheGreekPoet it was Scotty who told Sam Phillips at Sun Records that Elvis had potential, and at the first recording session, when Elvis spontaneously turned the slow song "That's Alright" into an up tempo rockabilly rave up, Scotty created the catchy lead guitar throughout the song that gave it the drive it needed. So he WAS the architect and Elvis was the "builder"
Sir Paul demands perfection from people he knows can deliver it. That's not being bossy, that's showing respect.
Scotty and DJ, the music sounded just like the original, it made my spine tingle, Scotty's guitar sound was exactly the same as it was in the early days, real grit music, and sadly missed.
Wow! That was pure music to my ears, and I've just listened to Presley's original version. So poignant considering the tragic death of Macca's mother. You've done both of them proud, Paul. Paul, you're one hell of a guy!
Actually, this is the original version ruclips.net/video/a4IILmBqaD8/видео.html&ab_channel=Arthur%27BigBoy%27Crudup-Topic
Big smile on my face watching this (just saw the new Elvis movie).
I think John said without Elvis there would be no Beatles.
What a treat! ... This video just popped up in my "recommended" list ...... THANK GOD! Awesome!
Paul McCartney Sings Elvis First Recorded RCA Record so well! Elvis would have so Happy and So Proud to know and hear it!!! This was the VERY FIRST SONG ELVIS that catapulted Elvis to Stardom and I know Elvis would have love to sing it with Paul had he been still alive today!!! 🙏😁👍 God I love how Paul sang it!!! A Tribute to the King 👑 of Rock ‘N Roll Elvis!!! 😇😉❤️
R.I.P. D.J. Fontana. So glad these three greats got to play together on this Earth.
Thank you for giving due to Elvis' great drummer.
Paul's in heaven playing with these guys
Jeff Connell Paul is still alive
To me he is not wanting to be better, or imitate Elvis, for me he's paying homage, as all Beatles always said Elvis fans.
A well-known phrase of John Lenon he said:
"Before Elvis there was nothing"
Beautiful tribute, Elvis has always been and always will be the best.
Thank you very much, I like your comment alot!
Originally not elvis. Arthur crudup wrote this elvis stole it white man singing black man songs
Most elvis songs are old blues songs blues had a baby and called it rock and roll black slang for sex little Richard says it best in good golly miss molly even though he's as gay as the day is long
blaster88778 Many artists during and before that era didn't write their own material including Sinatra, Ellla, Billi Holiday et al, Elvis made these songs his own and his version is way different to the original.
It is a race issue and if Elvis was black it wouldn't be a problem. A black artist called Big Mama Thorton recorded "hound Dog" which was written by two white jews, Leiber and Stoller (who wrote for many black artists) but no one says they stole music from the jews.
Many of the artists Elvis covered wouldn't have seen the light of day if it wasn't for him. Everyone is influenced by everyone black or white. Stealing is when you cover something verbatim. Elvis transformed those early blues songs into a music form called "rockabilly" Everyone who covers the song does the Elvis version. Crudup's version is simple 12 bar R & B.
Many black greats like Howlin Wolf, Jackie Wilson, BB King, James Brown and Fats Domino weren't bitter about Elvis' fame and acknowledge his originality
Elvis is shit
There are some artists that even the most accomplished performers recognize as being an inspiration to what they eventually become. For Paul his respect to Elvis' was this magnificent tip o the derby. His take on the classic blues standard which Elvis covered, was equally beautiful. Every once in a while, sing like your heroes. It just feels so good to give their work new life. Mine is covering John with Revolution and In My Life. Paul with that band is a pearl. Let him shine with it. If you don't agree, just shut up and go away.
Steve. Paul McCartney you were awesome as always. Cool DADDY-O. 🖐😎✌
this is just beautiful. what an artist
Ну как в одном человеке столько умения и таланта. Что петь что играть что дружить что сочинять. Божья милость благодать.
Wonderful to hear a bunch of "geezers" sounding so great. In January 2019 I spotted a billboard for a McCartney concert. I was in a small bus going to the airport in Santiago Chile. International appeal for a true craftsman.
Wow. The voice looks like Elvis, but no, this is Sir Paul McCartney. Congratulations. From Rio Brazil.
I think it's gonna be a hit!
The man on guitar 🎸 invented rock n roll with Elvis the man on bass renovated it ❤️ happy Birthday Pauli !
That was awesome! Paul is such a kind soul. Scotty Moore just as good as he has ever been on the guitar! Thanks for sharing!
One can only hope when it's Paul's time to go he can join Elvis, DJ, Scotty, & Bill in an all eternity jam.
Along with John and George, they're playing with all the rock and roll pioneers such as Elvis, Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, and Eddie Cochran
oh my would have given my small bank account to have been Paul at this moment. one of my fav drummers and one of my fav pickers
The old cat playing that huge Gibson jazzBox can really play 👏 👏 👏
