Elvis sound-a-like Jimmy Ellis (as) "Orion": ROCKABILLY (SSS Sun 1021) Ellis covers classic rockabilly songs, including "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" AND the Rockabilly Anthem: "Rockabilly Rebel"! Promo vinyl record album LP (gold vinyl). Scans: #1-2: covers (enlarge #2 for trax, but may be a bit difficult to read, so see scans #3-4), #3-4: Labels (titles may be a bit hard to read in scan 2 so here's the trax, Max), #5: sent inside custom poly-lined Musical notes inner-sleeve (unless you request a paper one), #6: Sun flyer (free but you must request it, or I'll forget to remember to forget, AH HOOT-WAH!). Other scans (NOT included with this LP but on my Store site): Elvis Presley (related): Jimmy Ellis sings (Presley sound-a-like) on a "duet" with Jerry Lee Lewis: "Cold, Cold Heart" + "Hello Josephine" (SUN 1141) vinyl 45 record (country rock). After Gail Brewer-Giorgio wrote the fiction book "Orion", Shelby Singleton (who had bought the Sun records catalog from Sam Phillips), got the bright idea of resurrecting Elvis by records Elvis sound-a-like Jimmy Ellis as "Orion". the first insult was to dig through the old Sun catalog & make new electronic "duets" of Jerry Lee Lewis & release a new LP called "Jerry Lee Lewis & Friends" (the "friends" being the newly incorporated "Elvis", aka: "Orion" + he already had 2 tracks of JLL that had been released on an original Phillips' Sun of actual duets with Charlie Rich, which he brightly also put on this LP, hence you get "& Friends"). One of the tricks used in this scam was to include a snippet of Jerry Lee saying "You really tried on that one, Elvis" which he borrowed from the "Million $ Quartet" tape, which was also in his possession. An interesting piece of Presleyanna. Scan: #1: Label, #2: I'll include a Sun flyer for free (but you must request it or I'll forget). Other scans (these items do not come with this 45 for bid but are on my eBay Store site): #4: actual 1973 Jimmy Ellis SUN 45, #3: Ellis/Orion Sun 45, #3: Orion LP, #5: Goldmine magazine article (which I can xerox for you for $3: ADVISE), #6-12: Elvis items on my site: #6: ELVIS The Record #1-16, #7: A King Forever! book, #8: from my fanzine "Elvis #2" (transcript of entire NYC '72 press conference is featured & #9: Elvis & Sam Phillips @ Sun (an extensive interview with Sam is also featured), #10: original 11x14 inch tabloid fanzine from Memphis, "The Graceland Press, #3: from Oct., 1978.
