I couldn't agree with you more Ron. This is a great song by P.J. and yes indeed, life is too short to be negative, so let's just sit back and enjoy the Proby ride.
sherilyn1977 This is one of the best songs from the new cd. I come on youtube to enjoy P.J.'s music just like you & all his true fans. I'm always dismayed to find people on youtube with a bee in their bonnet about P.J. Why can't they just button it & stop being negative.....life's too short! Ron
This upload appears to be an advert for a new P.J.Proby CD. I've only heard of him on youtube and I think he was brilliant at one time. I'm sure old fans will buy your CD but the voice on this track isn't what it once was and saying so don't make it so. Sorry guys but that's my reaction to your advert.
There's NOTHING WRONG with advertising on here or anywhere else on the net is there 1000stars , its the way to go, I do it myself these days and it works a treat.
A 30 second preview of every track is standard for marketing CD's these days. I don't buy sight unseen anymore after being burned too many times. A promise of surprise songs can't convince me to order a CD that hasn't been out long enough to be reviewed on the usual sites.
In the comments below manjadolan said that Maurice Hipkiss contributed to this CD. Surely you don't mean that you hired him to play the trumpet. I didn't realize that Hipkiss was a trumpet player.
I don't understand your reply. Are you saying that Hipkiss did a session on violin and steel pedal guitar specifically for P.J. Proby/No Comebacks for this CD? Or are you telling me that Hipkiss plays violin and steel pedal guitar, which I already knew or I wouldn't have questioned markdeanellen about his playing the trumpet.
not only did I produce this record I played most of the instruments including the Mariachi percussion, marimba, keyboards, guitar etc. I did have to hire in a trumpet player as it was taking too long to learn the damn thing ! Mark Dean Ellen
LOVE his accent on this one! How long ago did PJ record this? The voice is so different from the Corina Corina and Ghost Riders tracks. Doesn't sound like the No Comebacks backing him either. Female singers and a mariachi band.
This is PJ doing a Dean Martin! All the tracks were recorded last June. No Comebacks have many sides! Also a lot of good musicans have contributed to the CD, including Tina Dean and Maurice Hipkiss. Just order the CD to get all the names and you'll be in for many more surprise songs! You won't be disappointed.
PJ really enjoyed the invitation to participate in the CD as a special guest. It brought back all the happy memories from when he was a youngster. He used to back Roy Rogers at one time!
manjadolan, I like him doing a Dean Martin better than a Johnny Cash :-) I heard PJ say on the Corina Corina track that when he was 18 he played with the Roy Rogers traveling roadshow. Unlike Roy's shows in the 30's with his group who are now called the Sons of the Pioneers, in the mid 50's Roy and Dale performed with their kids at state fairs, rodeos, etc. around the U.S. They were really big on religion and family. Is this the traveling roadshow that PJ played with?
Yes it is! It was the end of the Fifties and P.J. stayed a while at the ranch with Roy and Dale and the kids and animals in San Fernando Valley. He was offered a job on their road show and backed them on rhythm guitar an a couple of shows in Southern California. Proby describes it all in his autobiography that's still waiting for a publisher....
I played just about every instrament on this record including Mariachi percussion, marimba etc. I had to hire in a trumpet player as it was taking me too damn long to learn how to play it.#
Everything this guy ( P.J. Proby) does is good, What a great combination with No Comebacks, ( Mark Dean Ellen and Johnny Podd) I hope the beginning of a long and successful relationship
paradisoperdutouno P.J.Proby is simply the best & together with No Comebacks they have made a gem of a CD.Hope one day we get a follow up disc to this one .P.J.'s voice shows no sign of wilting...he's better than ever! Ron
Thnx for posting to me Ron, Isnt it weird ive never really liked this old classic much ..BUT given the PJ touch i rather like it and it seems to come to life, And PJ's ONE OFF VOICE SOUNDS STRONG AND POWERFUL AT 71...IT'S AMAZING.
I couldn't agree with you more Ron. This is a great song by P.J. and yes indeed, life is too short to be negative, so let's just sit back and enjoy the Proby ride.

My thoughts exactly Ron. So many songs out there that are not my favourites, but if the Probster sings them, suddenly I'm hooked. :)

Hi a1000stars, You certainly have the right to your personal opinion on this and every other song.
I just want to stress that I uploaded this song on my own initiative. But it might be obvious that I am a fan of PJ Proby :-)!
