Scotty Moore Tells It Like It Was

[@pauladams9067]

I was a Friend of Scott Moore for 30 plus years. My sister was his business mgr. at his recording studio in Nashville, that I purchased later. I sat with him @ his home for half days while my niece went shopping for food, two different weeks just before he passed, & He signed his book for me (Mystery Train ) . She was his caretaker for his last 2 years after my sister passed. Scott was the kindest most unassuming man & was a great friend for 30 & more years. Every one would be lucky to have ONE Friend like him I served at his service & final resting place at his family plot in Humboldt Tenn. No one could have a better friend than MR. SCOTT MOORE RIP OLE BUDDY!!

It sounds like you were a good friend to him also. And you are so right about friends, my husband always told our sons that if you could count on one hand your true friends you are the luckiest man in the 🌎 and always be a leader and not a follower. Scotty was always a stand up guy and a fantastic musician that was recognized all over the world. To me it was another great loss for Elvis all because of Parker. RIP Scotty I hope you and Elvis are back together again.

What a classy guy Scotty Moore was. I think he was the only manager Elvis ever had who really had his back. He obviously had too much class to tell everyone what he really thought about Colonel Parker - because I'm sure his opinion of him wasn't a good one. RIP Scotty, you're one hell of a guy.

[@jennifursun3303]

Hank Snow who was helping Elvis before he met Tom hated the man

[@adrinathegreat3095]

Tom Parker was just his manager and he could of cut ties with him at anytime, Elvis decided who to employ and have in his band, Parker was nothing to do with this. Besides Elvis very quickly went into lucrative movies, that required far less work for a bigger pay check, he hated touring, he wasn't a people person, avoided the public where possible, lived in seclusion with paid friends around him, when he went out it was to a theme park opened just for him and friends, avoided public food places, his peers were often seen out and about mingling with fans. Elvis hid in a hotel room and had people brought upto him. None of this has anything to do with Parker, Elvis set up his own publishing company to get royalties from writers song's, he wanted max money for minimal effort. He wasn't worked to death, he died at the end of a 6 week vacation, he'd work a month and take 6 weeks off. He asked Parker to get him top gigs where he didn't have to tour, that paid top money and didn't require months of work at a time. Most Vegas acts were doing 3-4 times as many shows as Elvis was

[@rjreddenbaker4351]

I love how it was his relationships and diligence and patience that eventually led to financial success. The love for music was just inborn. Scotty was a gift to humanity, just like Elvis.

[@geofromnj7377]

Each riff Scotty Moore played on an Elvis recording was unique for that song and it seemed that the riff so perfectly matched the tune that no other riff seemed to belong. Moore expanded on this in this interview when he said that he didn't want his riff to be a reprise of the song's melody, but rather a unique contribution to the song. And each riff was exactly that.

It's amazing how all the stars aligned to bring Elvis, Scotty, Bill, and Sam Phillips together that night. Had it not been for the secretary constantly bringing up Elvis to Sam, the name Elvis, may have never been known. She was the one who recognized something in Elvis. There are thousands of people in this world who have that special something, that talent, that will never be known simply because the stars never aligned for them. I knew of a singer who sounded like a combination of Perry Como, and Sinatra, but with the power of Tony Bennett, that would turn every head in the bar with amazement, when he sat in with the band and sang a few songs even better than the original artists. He spent his life working as a contractor.

Yes you are right Mr. Moore helped Elvis from the very start. Mr. More was reminding Sam Phillips more than once to call in Elvis to see what they can do together in the studio. Mr More used his wife's car to take three of them to do the initial tours to play gigs and start earing an income from their music. The last conversation between Mr More and Elvis was after the 68 Special when Elvis told him about the European Tour that he wanted to do which never did came about. This is telling me that the last time Elvis had personal contact with Mr. More was in 1968. From then on to Elvis's death he did not had any contact with Mr. More. This is what i am just understanding with this interview with Mr. More. I am a very huge fan of Elvis but, this is terrible. Elvis had completely forgotten a very important person who had help him when he had nothing.
