He was 6' 5" ?!?

1 John 2:15 “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.” King James Version (KJV)

J D Summers entrou para o Guinness Book como a voz mais grave do mundo. Ele tinha a voz que eu gosto e era muito bonita. Até falando, a voz dele era grave. Ele era Baixo Super Profundo.

amen, can't wait to meet them all in heaven along with my sweet hubby

That was a mean man😮

God used Elvis and JD in a mighty way!!! I bet they are setting in heaven together now, and if I know my daddy he’s setting there with them!🙌🙌🙌

Sad, they don't sing gospel music in church anymore. Used to see him in Georgia, my mom's family use to share crop with his family. I miss the all night gospel singing.

Blue label of Johnnie Walker, is an elissir!

I love his singing what a gift

Corpse has been beaten

Singer from Rex H former church

Wonderful interview and testimony

Elvis’ manager, Col. Tom Parker, said in a press conference shortly after his death: “Elvis didn’t die. The body did. We’re keeping up the good spirits. We’re keeping Elvis alive. I talked to him this morning and he told me to 'carry on.’” (Elvis did not die and he wanted out. - Col. Tom Parker. 1977) After hearing so many stories about the death of Elvis Presley, I have decided to tell the world the real story on the facts concerning that day in August, 1977. Yes, that day, the 16th of August. Is it a coincidence that a person born on that January 8, first month, eighth day, would perish on the 8th month and the 16th day? Probably if two (2) people were born on that day it makes more sense. You see, numerology always played an important part of my life and still does today. So many people have written or spoke about my death as a hoax. It was not a hoax! I decided to reinvent myself in the form of my brother (Jesse Garon) and yes, Elvis Presley did die that day. But after much searching for the right people, I found several people from different states who I consider my most loyal and trustworthy friends. To some people this book will be just another scandalous piece of fiction, but when you are done I think you will think otherwise. I always felt my brother deserved to live and what better way to let him live his life than to end mine. I was lonely, depressed, in bad health and my numerology chart said that this was the time for it to come to end. Anyone who studies numerology will understand, those who don't may want to look into it. All of the facts (and there are many) even the experts will say they are more than coincidences. I no longer give away Cadillacs or expensive pieces of jewelry because I am nothing more than a man who had a very famous brother. I am not a great literate (I never wrote my own songs), but I am not illiterate either. The perfect day August 16, 1977, 1 + 9 + 7 + 7 = 24, my age backwards (42), the facts go on and on. But my true reasons for the book are for my fans. My death was not a hoax! To my fans, please forgive me, my brother deserved to live, he was with me constantly (spiritually). My life would not be the same had he lived at birth. This was my way of giving him life, and corny as it sounds. The Colonel took this secret to his grave. He was a loyal friend. But I will no longer stand by and have people like Gail Brewer tell you stories that are pure fiction. This book written by a true friend will help you realize why I did what I did. - The Truth About Elvis Aron Presley In His Own Words. (2001). My fascination with the idea of a hoax about death was when Jim Morrison died July 3rd, 1971. Although I saw no correlation (he died at age 27) I was astounded that as famous as he was the body was just closed up and shipped out. Now I don't know all the facts concerning his death. I thought it awfully strange that no autopsy was performed (or so I thought) and just forgotten about. There were a lot of rumors about his death. I noticed he was born on the 8th day. Born in 1944 = 1-8 and died in 1971 = 1-8. Remember my comeback in 1968? 1+9+6+8 = 24. Obviously, I was no longer 24, so I reversed the age to 42. The next time that number had any relevance was 1977 (1+9+7+7 = 24 when I would be 42. Numerology can and does play an important part of my life and we knew that would have to be the date. Most people if they know what to look for will find significance in the forms of numbers in all of my movies! Example: gravestone in " Loving You" (year) 1878 = ? (1+8+7+8 = 24). You have to look at the movies. My hero James Dean died at the age of 24, but I was on top of the world then and wanted to live. - The Truth About Elvis Aron Presley In His Own Words. (2001). I will start about 1974 when the thought first came to me about faking my death. I have always been fascinated with the occult and other spiritual things. When I first saw a wax dummy of myself made by a Mr. Cooper I was fascinated with it. For some time I had thought if it was possible? Could I pull this thing off? I had asked Mr Cooper if he could make another wax dummy for me. He said he could. I in turn said I wanted him to do it and keep it strictly confidential. When I had mentioned it to a very few close friends (Joe Esposito, Larry Geller) they did not think I was serious. I was tired of being Elvis Presley, my health was deteriorating. I just couldn't keep up. My finances were floundering because of my daddy's poor business ventures. I was at my wit's end. As the years progressed I had my ups and downs which are pretty well documented in other books. I also had two detectives from Colorado who I trusted immensely. Originally the date was 1976 according to my numerology charts but I chickened out. A pact was made on the grounds of Graceland one night, hands placed over hands that this secret would never be spoken of outside this room. I picked four (4) of us initially and to this day all have kept the secret. I also know when this book reaches the bookstores people (my loyal friends) will be heartbroken. They took care of me and convinced others that I was no longer alive. In reality Elvis Presley died that day and my twin brother "Jesse" came to life, living in hiding but as a normal human being. I skip around because I am writing stream of consciousness. My own Daddy bless his soul never knew the truth. Little Lisa was told months later and explained to her she would not see me much. The Colonel took this secret to his grave. Many people believe me to still be alive but I was told in the beginning there would be no contact in order for this to work. I go thru a lot of ups and downs since 1977 and have lived in many states but I insisted I needed to be in a warm climate. My personal thoughts are that my fans will understand. That is very important to me. I just could not face myself any more after seeing myself in the mirror and that is where Larry Geller came in. He asked if he could write a book, and I gave him my blessing. "If I Can Dream" is the title and I like his book. He had filled my head with spiritual thoughts and made me believe we could pull this off. If I had stayed longer I think I would have been booed off the stage. That is why I chose the date 8-16-77. Do you know how many famous people passed away on that date? The great Robert Johnson died on 8-16 and he was born in 1935! Babe Ruth, and Bela Lugosi and many others. I must say I was very nervous that day 8-16. But it had to be done before I went on the road where I would not have been able to pull it off. Did you know there are secret compartments in Graceland that very few people know about! A few like Vester would joke about my being alive but no one took him serious. Many of my friends would ask if I were still alive and they have their doubts but as it was I might have died broke and just a shell of myself. I was given an injection that looked like I was dead but the people closest to me knew better. Believe me I had my doubts that this could be pulled off. But it did and I became Jesse, just a poor white southern boy who didn't sing a lick of anything. I feel bad my Daddy wasn't allowed to know but it just couldn't be done. I better go now and collect my thoughts to tell you the rest next time. - The Truth About Elvis Aron Presley In His Own Words. (2001).

Typo for the word "physically" 🌈

Red West 😈 Sonny West 😈 and Dave Hebler 😈 wrote that ELVIS 😇♥️ gave a lot of expensive jewelry 💎💍 💰 to J.D. Sumner and a lot of other people. Maybe, Red and Sonny and Dave were jealous. Elvis knew J. D. Sumner when he (Elvis) grew up dirt poor 😟 and Elvis was fourteen years old. ELVIS 😇💜 was A GIVER 💜🤑🏡💎🚙🚜💍💰 AND A TROOPER 😍 A physically ill 🤒 ELVIS who was in a lot of physically pain 😟 for a long time was financially supporting 🤑 over 100 💯 people.

I'm surprised i can even understand him

JD’s last show was in Myrtle Beach, SC on Nov. 16, 1998. I notice this just says last show but does not claim to be that concert.

The best bass singer of all time.

2:17 i miss the part where that's my problem (it would be hilarious)

Is he speaking without chest voice? It sounds like strohbass voice, except some parts like here: 2:15

He have the lowest speaking voice,I've ever heard ,MAN!!!!. Beautiful..may GOD bless him.

I love his voice,it's so Deep and he's just talking,l must have watch it at least 15,or 20 times so far.mayGOD bless his soul.

_I wouldn't retire till Jesus retired me_ - JD Summer 4 days before died 🙏

Hello from England J. D Sumner was a true ‘giant’ both physically and as a human being All I can say in a few words BUT J D had it all and God gave him so many talents and of course as humans we are not perfect and we all have our own ‘demons’ I hope he went through those pearly gates of heaven with NO REGRETS ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🥲🥲🥲👌🏻👌🏻🙏🙏

He is and always will be the best…

🙏🙏🙏🙏

You are blessed and been a blessing thank you

Love JD. you could see the relationship he had with Elvis just from the way he watched Elvis sing

His he speaking a E1? lol

Only 73 yrs old ... Well ,had he stayed away from bourbon he might have lasted until 102 like George Beverly Shea but J.D would have not been happy and his singing wouldn't have been as good. JD said it was the whiskey that allowed him to sing those low notes and that he was the only one in the band Elvis would allow to drink.

Miss ya JD

I love to hear the one he sung with Elvis called LEAD ME! It’s priceless.

God puts only a few people on this earth that really stand out and are super special !!!! This is one of those people !! God bless you Mr.J.D.Sumners

Blessed🙏

THE LORD 📖⚒ WILL USE ALL MEANS TO CALL SINNERS TO REPENTANCE AND FAITH TOWARDS GOD ✝️ Luke 7 31 ¶ And the Lord said, Whereunto then shall I liken the men of this generation? and to what are they like? 32 They are like unto children sitting in the marketplace, and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept. 33 For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil. 34 The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners! 35 But wisdom is justified of all her children.🍇

Proverbs 10:7 The memory of the just is blessed:🏞 Psalms 116:15 💖Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.🌅

One of ELVIS concerts Elvis interdoiced JD summer & said when I was 16 I seen JD summer in the Blackwood Brothers and it's a privileged to be on the same stage as you

I 'd loved if this interview was translated to portuguese ....please...!! Adoria se esta entrevista fosse traduzida p o portugues por favor!

He sang so low the low notes just got stuck in his normal voice

Wow! The Italians should've named a race car after JD 'cause his voice... he talked in an F1!

One of our main duties as Christians is to bring people to Christ, and that's what JD was talking about when he was talking about being able to sing gospel music with Elvis to his crowd, that may not have as many Christians as a normal gospel crowd. What a life JD led. RIP JD and Elvis, TCB⚡.

If J.D whispered in my ear I would've thought it was God shouting

Was he ill at that time ? What was the cause of his passing

wow almost like zlatopolsky

J.D. Sumner has always been my hero. When I was a teenager, he always took the time to talk and encourage me and he was never too big to show love to everyone. Through the years, I had J.D. and the Blackwoods, and the Master's Five sing at my churches. He was and always will be the number one reunited with his beloved wife, and knelt joyfully at the foot of Jesus, when he came before Him, his Lord and master who he faithfully served all those years. I look forward to seeing you soon J.D.,!

Jd e Mikhail, jamais haverá vozes iguais
