Friends, we felt real lucky to have received this P.J. PROBY Promotional Video in our very own e-mail from P.J.'s manager Manja, who is in Holland. P.J. has just finished with the Elvis themed show and other venues are calling. There aren't many left of our generation who are as active in entertainment.
We're so Excited for P.J.! This video shows his range - which has always been incredible - his talent and energy. Hey P.J. I want a silver suit too!

THOUSANDS OF FANS OF P.J. PROBY WANT HIM TO KNOW HE IS NOT WALKING ALONE
We recently posted a comment on an Youtube video or two that featured older P.J. Proby performances. We said that P.J. Proby was going to sing his heart out in the show he's featured in and was still going strong.
We took a little criticism for saying so, because we posted on these older videos, which we enjoyed listening to!
Today we found this 2011 video of P.J., apparently recorded in conjunction with his tour, which proves our point. If ELVIS PRESLEY were alive today, would be a little bit older than P.J. and we would hope also be in such good voice. But we will never know because Elvis died too young, and for a time, though this is not well understood today, it was almost as if he had never been.
And if Elvis were alive today, believe me when I say that he would feel honored to be covered by P.J. who once did demo records for Elvis, and he would reach out to P.J., who as the world knows, has been going through a difficult time financially in his senior-citizenhood. P.J. has loved singing - has loved entertaining - since forever. Like Elvis he knows his voice is a gift from God.
It's a gift he loves to use.
He's earned a lot of money over many years time and he's stimulated the economy of Great Britain and the United States over the years with his spending. Though we can't calculate it (one magazine attempted to monetize Britany Spears recently) anyone with a successful performance career keeps other people working - from the ushers in the stadium, to the truckers delivering records to clerks in the stores, hundreds of people. P.J., who is also a songwriter, seems to have spent more career time in Great Britain, a country he has embraced wholeheartedly.
In this world wide Depression, we are reminded of how money flows. No one with talent or energy likes to retire or give up their hope of earning or contributing. Like thousands of P.J. Proby fans worldwide our thoughts are on P.J.

ELVIS PRESLEY 500 MILES
Listening to this song reminded me of being at Elvis' parties when the guests started singing along with Elvis. Elvis loved to sing. He's known for the massive audiences he performed in front of at the end of his life, but he loved singing to one or a few people too.
Members of The Entourage were also musical and so many of us - me, Johnny Rivers, P.J. Proby, and so many other people also brought our guitars and our own songs as well as songs we covered with us as part of the entertainment. And on the piano - Cliff Gleaves!
One of the most wonderful memories I have of Elvis and his parties in Los Angeles is the outbreaks of performance that happened spontaneously.
We want to thank the Youtuber "Jackiej61too" who posted this! What a find! Jackie told us that IT WOULD BE AN HONOR TO HAVE HER VIDEO POSTED ON OUR BLOG and says "ELVIS FOREVER!"

P.J. PROBY : LINKS TO NEW NEW NEW OFFICIAL SITES
We just picked this e-mail up and that's funny because we're posting on P.J. in one hour!
Dear Wes, Thank you for mentioning P.J. so often on your blog.
However, there's one thing we would like to ask.
I've just discovered that your link to PJ's official website doesn't direct you to his official website. The website you've got is a commercial site, which has nothing to do with Proby himself.
The Official Proby website is http://www.pjproby.com/ or http://www.pjproby.net/ PJs second website is http://www.houseofproby.co.uk/
PJ would be very happy if you could link to those sites.
Thanks in advance and keep up the good work.
Kind regards,
Manja
(Christine here: You have to click on these links to see the TO DIE FOR pictures of P.J. How did that man ever sit in traffic in his car without being swamped by the ladies? Woo!)
(Wes here: P.J. is an indy artist now. He has his own label called Select Records.)
