  • I too know PJP having worked with him for many months on the 'THANKS' CD Album and he tells tall tales about his supposed friendship with Elvis that simply do not make sense. When PJP was age 14 Elvis was 17 and doing shows, he was not dating Proby's sister in Houston as Elvis lived in Memphis some 500 miles away. According to PJP he was in boarding at a Military School where he played a little drum in the marching band. The Elvis story was started by Jack Good in 1964 to promote PJ in the UK.

  • I could buy part of this if Proby was from Tupelo or anywhere inside a 100 mile radius of Memphis. Elvis wasn't near Houston until late 1954 and Proby would have been 16 if he was born in 1938. Maybe his sister went out with Elvis once but the names of Elvis' real girlfriends back then are known and she wasn't one of them. Elvis didn't meet Col. Parker till 1955. Nothing about this adds up and Proby's suggestion that the only difference between him and Elvis was circumstances doesn't fly.

  • his association with elvis is not a strong one and to be honest he has stretched the truth ..there are no photos of him and elvis together, if he spent as much time with elvis as he makes out to have done then surely at some point a photo would have been taken.

  • True he is stretching some stories but he did do a few demo's for Elvis and sounded just as good.

  • Proby was good looking and sexy but Elvis was sooooo....pretty.

  • i dont bother to read all the experts comments on stars but hey....this guys still alive and kicking, maybe he learnt how to take drugs in small quantities lmfao. Odd how all the famous ones die and its drug related. crack on PJ, your voice was miles better than....shit forgot his name.

  • P.J. has had a mainly wonderful life!!! Many ups & a few downs!! Why his book can't find a publisher I'll never know. Some people have suggested making a musical of his life story.....that would be fantastic ! What a singer....what a character!!

  • I don't think he was putting elvis down at all - and it was interesting too!!!!!

  • Yawn!!! What a boring interview!!!

  • @JudicialError I don't watch GMTV...try my best to avoid it to be honest...it's not all that!!
