Destiny Continues Its Materialization Of The Entertainment World's Greatest Miracle; The Entire Elvis Presley "Hit Making Team" Is Back In Operation And The Engines Are Roaring!

Los Angeles/New York (PRWEB) December 13, 2004 -- Fate has been knockin’ on Heaven’s door; the powers at be and Elvis’ spirit have answered. The prophets have spoken…"Get The Band Back Together, Save The Music"! And so it is fans, the word of the Rock ‘n Roll Gods. Elvis Presley’s entire "Hit Making Team" has re-assembled in a history making new music venture with singer/songwriter John Krondes and The Jordanaires. For the first time since Elvis’ death, The "TCB" Band, The Jordanaires, Sweet Inspirations, and now the Elvis "Memphis Studio Band" have been put back in place together to record new music.

The Heavens shook, and the universe is rockin’ and cheerin’ on the news of this divine assembly. This historic convocation has just mustered up the Elvis troops named the "Memphis Boys." The Memphis Studio team for Elvis, Mike Leech (Bass), Bobby Emmons (Organ), Bobby Woods (Piano/Keyboards), Shane Keister (Piano/Keyboards), Gene Chrisman (Drums) and Reggie Young (Guitar) have all been united in this league of rockers with front man John Krondes and the Jordanaires. At "American Studios" in Memphis, "The Memphis Boys" played on such Elvis hits as "Suspicious Minds", "Kentucky Rain", "In The Ghetto", "Don’t Cry Daddy", "Long Black Limousine", "It Keeps Right A Hurtin", "Momma Liked The Roses", "Rubberneckin" and "Trouble" to name a few.

As preordination continues to call the shots in this dazzling story, The "Memphis Boys" recently joined rocker John Krondes and the Jordanaires at Emerald Recording Studio in Nashville for their first recording session together in this monumental musical undertaking. "TCB" Band Member and Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Famer James Burton will be adding guitar parts to the new tracks, and The "Sweet Inspirations" are scheduled to add their "Sweet" Vocals to the new tracks next week in Los Angeles.

All very well & good. Trouble is, the most important member of the Elvis hit making team is no longer with us.

I really dont understand this whole thing or who's funding the money for this. This guy that sings has to really concentrate to be in tune. I wonder how the boys that played on so many hits whith E.P can keep a straight face when they record.

I was in contact with one of the members of the mentioned groups. This person also serves as the manager of that particular group. He had never heard of the project in the press release. Is Krondes (who obviously pu out the "press release") daydreaming ?
