Burr and Anka are talking; ELVIS is the topic

Like Bill Burr I never met Elvis. Paul Anka met Elvis Presley and years later hung out with Elvis. I did, however, meet two guys who sang behind Elvis. I met and hung out with Hugh Jarrett who was a member of the Jordanires, a group that sang behind Elvis for early recordings, and too I think I saw Hugh behind Elvis in the movie King CREOLE. The other guy was J. D. Sumner who was with Elvis on stage in Las Vegas and might have set a record for singing a low note. Met Hugh when he and I were part-time personalities in the 80s at WSB Radio in Atlanta. Met J. D. in the 70s when he visited WPAD Radio in Paducah, Kentucky.

They are recording artists working together somebody said for two years.

I asked Azuma-san to get a track from their album from APPLE music. Not available yet in Japan. So then, I ordered the CD on Amazon from the U.S., and delivery will be delayed. I have great enthusiasm for their work. Played a Shaggy hit almost twenty years ago on the air here in Shizuoka.

I worked at the Coca-Cola corporate complex in a low down position ( the mailroom ) some time back in the 80s. I love how the company does business beyond the actual product. My younger son in school in New York made a design that included that brand. In this video the brand inspires art students.

Really, this is what I do. I try never to repeat a source, but I just feature a YOU TUBE video made not by me. This one is Waddingham, a nice lady whom I only recently know of slightly, and she is with Tom Hanks whom I am a little more familiar with. He and she do a silly thing that is like a rap that he did in the movie BIG.
