I loved this song. Thanks for the video, Blackelvis64. I, too, wish he had recorded this song AND many more. Can you imagine finding all these songs recorded after his death. What a dream!!!!!
@Drsynful They should have put this on an album and to think they were just fooling around,Think of what it would have sounded like if they had been serious
This is available on the Gravel Road Music release from 2010 called Get Down and Dirty. It is the complete rehearsal tape of July 15 1970 at MGM Studios, Stage 1, Culver City, CA
@snsproaudio this was not recorded in nashville this was filmed at the rehersals room in the MGM film studios where Elvis was preparing for his vegas stint for his August season in 1970
@apollocreed1703 they would have brought the ghost riders .... 4 horsemen of the apocalypse and the world would have swallowed its self hole 2 the core

This just shows you that this man could sing anything it make it his own. I bet Elvis singing the phone book would be great. Look at the artist today, so much of it is studio enhanced and when it comes to singing live they can't. God this man was SO TALENTED. The best their ever was!
there is one back up band that is even better and they do ghost riders,and their guitar player is in my op better than J.B. you get 3 guesses................
The King is quite serious in the beginning and the dudes is having fun joking they talk and laugh through his first verse; then they sense his epic vibe and couple realize this could be the GREATEST TRACK EVER(EPIC GUITAR REVERB) THEY STILL BE MISSING SOME KEY CHANGE NOTES THEY BE JAMIN
Definitely a shame he didn't create a finished version.
But then, a shame he didn't do a lot of things. Shame he died at 42. Shame he was so wasted at the end that he could hardly sing. What a loss altogether.
I think we can see it at (ELVIS THAT'S THE WAY IT IS), which is a 203min doc and show at MGM in 1970 Elvis did!
But Elvis singing this music....my God.... i don't even know what to say about it, the guy took the music and turned it into magic, of course Johnny cash's version is amazing, but Elvis...wow... why he didn't do it full...why?
I have been an Elvis fan a while now, One of my best country songs is Ghost Riders, so to see and hear the King do this version is beond Great. WELL DONE.
Does anyone know if this is avaible on dvd anywhere? Thank you very much.
Stan Jones wrote it in 1948. More than 50 different artists have recorded versions of it...including Johnny Cash, Bing Crosby, Marty Robbins and Spike Jones. Being a lifelong Elvis fan I wish that he had released a version of it.
I prefer Elvis as a rock 'n' roll/ ballad/ rythm'n' blues singer rather than a country singer. Of course they're a couple of country songs he performed which I like too.
Do you know if Elvis has sung this song in another occasion, either live or in the studio? I would like to hear Elvis's version once more with his voice a bit louder.
Just because the vid didn't match the recording doesn't mean that it's not Elvis. I've seen alot of vids that were DEFINETLY him but they had to use clips of him singing other songs and splice them together because they didn't have both video AND audio of him singing that particular song. However, if you can PROVE that it's not him, I'm all ears.
Someboady did an amazing job making this becuase this is a hoax. These are clips from a rehersal that are joined together to make it seem like Elvis was singing this song however, it is not him.
Someboady did an amazing job making this becuase this is a hoax. These are words from a dictionary that are copied and pasted together to make it seem like whoa27 was typing this comment however, it is not him.
cool song the doors did their own version of this song Called Riders on the Storm they started playing this song in a jam session and they started to make a song that would be the last song Jim Morison would make before he died
Yea, your right, but you`ll have to remember, that this is nothing but Elvis having fun in the studio between takes(And in bad sound too)....he never recorded this song for real, BUT had he done, I`m sure he would have rehearsed it and it would have been in a great way and in better sound too.
yes it is read his lips you fool. this is totatlly unreleased footage i know all the existing elvis footage from thats the way it is and this is something never released before. thank you blackelvis for sharing this. where do you find this stuff i havent been able to find this one song ever
