Keri Leigh & the Blue Devils' authentic and heartfelt cover version ...
more
Keri Leigh & the Blue Devils' authentic and heartfelt cover version of Elvis Presley's classic, "Tryin' To Get To You," from the 1991 album "Blue Devil Blues." Elvis originally recorded the song for Sun Records in February 1955 -- exactly 57 years ago this month.
To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the release of the band's debut album "Blue Devil Blues," the official Keri Leigh & the Blue Devils YouTube channel is releasing many rare and never-before-seen photographs taken during the recording of the album.
Donated to this production from Keri Leigh's archives, these candid photographs were taken by Keri and Mark Lyon in Memphis and throughout the Mississippi delta between 1989-1990. The now-historic photographs depict the delta as it used to be, back before casinos changed the north delta landscape forever in the mid-1990s.
Several behind-the-scenes photos also document the recording sessions for "Blue Devil Blues" on a portable 8-track Tascam reel-to-reel in various hotel rooms around the region. According to Keri's notes, these sessions took place during the last two weeks of April, 1990.
Keri's personal snapshots capture the sights of Memphis, Clarksdale and Greenville, Mississippi, as well as the port of Helena, Arkansas, where she and Mark stopped by to pay a visit to their old friend "Sunshine" Sonny Payne. Sonny is the legendary disc jockey who brought "King Biscuit Time" to the KFFA-AM radio airwaves in 1941, where the nation's longest-running blues radio show continues to this day.
Locations pictured in this video also include Sun Studios in Memphis, where Elvis recorded the original. After her second visit to Sun, Keri said she was suddenly inspired to record an Elvis Presley number from the classic Sun sessions. "So Mark and I grabbed a room at one of those cheesy Elvis-themed hotel rooms on Elvis Presley Boulevard, set up the 8-track machine and cut it that same night," she later explained in a radio interview.
The result is a haunting and heartfelt tribute to Elvis, recorded just down the road from his Graceland home. As producers, Keri and Mark employ production techniques that echo the "Sun sound" so precisely you might just wonder if this was recorded in the 1950s instead of the 1990s.
