Elvis Presley Tapes Gary Halbert

Mississippi Man Discovers Long Lost Tapes Made By Elvis Presley Before He Became Famous!

Now at last, you can hear them too!

If you are an Elvis Presley fan, this may be the most exciting message you will ever read. Here is why. In 1955, a full year before Elvis became famous, he got a chance to play at the Eagles Hall at 2204 Louisiana Street in Houston, Texas. He went there with Scotty Moore, his guitar player and first sidekick, and Bill Black, his bass player. Well, what happened is, the three of them got up there on that stage and... THEY SET THAT JOINT ON FIRE! You see, this was Elvis before he was tamed down, before Colonel Parker got a hold of him, before Steve Allen tried to "detwitch" him, before he was told he had to stop all that shaking or else the TV cameras could only shoot him from the waist up. This was Elvis totally uninhibited! Well anyway, there was a DJ named Benny Hess who used to go around recording live acts on his tape recorder and then, if he heard what he heard, he'd play the tape on his radio show. Then, after that, to save money, he'd use that same tape to record something else instead of saving the original recording. So, what he does this time, he goes to the Elvis concert at the Eagles Hall and he records it and... HE DECIDES IT'S NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO PLAY ON HIS RADIO SHOW! Thank God! If that tape had been played, it would have been recorded over like all the others, and it would have been lost forever. As it turns out, however, the tape was simply tossed in a drawer where it was forgotten for more than 20 years! Hard to imagine, isn't it? But, believe it or not, back then, the people at the Eagles Hall didn't even know how to spell Elvis Presley's last name. They used two S's instead of one and spelled his name "PRESSLEY." Take a look at their newspaper ad and you'll see what I mean.

THEY ARE ABLE TO SAVE EVERY SINGLE SONG ELVIS SANG AT THAT CONCERT! They also got Elvis talking to the audience between songs and, believe me, this is not the same Elvis you saw in all those dumb movies. No way! This is the hip-shaking, pelvis pounding, tough-talking Elvis in the first flush of his manhood before he was homogenized and "cleaned up" for public consumption! When Scotty Moore first heard the tape, he said, "That's me, I can't deny it. You can hear Bill Black (the clown of the group hollering in the background)." So, with the help of Stan Kesler, a songwriter who was at Sun Records when Elvis was there, the tape gets converted to one side of a record album. Then, on the other side, they get Scotty Moore talking and he tells what it was like traveling around that first year with Elvis. What stories! Scotty tells about how he and Bill Black and Elvis got stranded in Shreveport, Louisiana because they didn't have enough money to pay the hotel bill! He tells about how his wife nearly ran out the back door when she first saw Elvis because he was dressed so "weirdly" in a pink suit and white shoes. He tells about their Grand Ol' Opry appearance which was a disaster. (Elvis was advised to go back to driving a truck!) He tells about how Bill Black's clowning around was needed to win the audience over so they would at least give Elvis a chance. And so on.
