Heartbreak Hotel

Step into our wayback machine to Sept. 5 1987. We opened and backed Johnny Harra at a concert in Granbury, Texas. He is a very personable and professional person on and off stage. Johnny was chosen to play a 42 year old Elvis in the docudrama movie “This Is Elvis”. For more information, videos and music his website is http://www.johnnyharrathelegend.com
Johnny has also worked with Conway Twitty, Glen Campbell, Jack Green, The Kentucky Headhunters, Brenda Lee, Jewel Akins and many more.
The musicians that night were from left to right, Truman Hudson, Bob Hudson (lead guitar), Joey Phillips (drums), Greg Ladesic (bass), Oliver Mowet (keyboard). The backup vocals were Joe Fleming and Kelly.
This was recorded on VHS by a relative up in the loft next to the spotlight, and the sound you hear was picked up through the camera mike across the auditorium. The tape was about gone due to age, and the video doesn’t look very good at full screen.
For the people who were there that night, and the ones seeing this for the first time……….enjoy.

    Thanks for posting this. I remember seeing Johnny for the first time in 1976 in Denver. I’d done an Elvis cake for him and still have the photo with him and the cake. He was a wonderful performer.
