July 13 - New Elvis Recording Discovered

On YouTube a previously unreleased Elvis Presley live-recording from the Louisiana Hayride was posted by user 'amberola1b'. On the FECC forum the conclusion was that it was probably from October 01, 1955. Recorded on an early silvertone "wire" recording machine we initially hear Buzz Busby and the Bayou Boys before Horace Logan introduces Elvis, Scotty and Bill and their "modern-day type" new single, 'I Forgot To Remember To Forget'. According to postings on the Too Much Monkey Business and For Elvis CD Collector's forums the recording will NOT be part of the 'Young Man From Tupelo' box set on Elvis SUN years.

The reaction from Ernst Jorgensen:

"Wow – it’s unbelievably beautiful. I’m still trying to recover from the shock
Ernst"


Ernst Jorgensen's reaction on the question if it will be on the 'Boy From Tupelo' set:
"Well, it's not-it just turned up on UTUBE today.Ernst"

From FECC:
Horce Logan makes the introduction and notes that song has been riding the charts for several weeks. What may help us date it is the reference to Buzz Busby and the Bayou Boys.
I checked Keith Finns site and he has several advertisements from the Hayride. An advertisement for the October 1, 1955 show notes that the Buzz Busby and his band were being introduced on that show. The band and Elvis are also noted for apperances on shows on 10/8/55, 11/5/55, 11/12/55 and 11/26/55. Elvis also played the Hayride on 10/29/55 and 11/19/55 (which was a remote broadcast), The 11/19/55 is interesting because according to KF, I Forgot to Rember to Forget may have been played on the show and it is also the show where Elvis played Rock Around the Clock and a poor tape recording supposedly exits.
