Just do a search for "freddie starr and the jordanaires", there are more songs.

[@jamesduris6366]

Freddie star had a speech stammer that’s how he would bring in visual comedy

[@jamesduris6366]

You should check out chewing the fat a Scottish comedy show

[@williamgreen9568]

Can you please played trouble from the film King creole please

[@sliderdriver1]

The jordinairs were outstanding. A time when music was soulful, had meaning and most of all you could actually understand it! Thankyou for posting it. I'm off looking for more of the same. I met Freddie briefly just a few months before we lost him. His final month's were tragic 😢. Such talent hounded and chased down for nothing. All the best from our sude🇬🇧👍🏻

[@davidrobinson8543]

Freddie was one of the most talented people in the 70s and 80s and was treated like absolute crap by the British media in the 90s, which led to him falling into depression

[@dannyadams4765]

It was more the 2000s and the fall out from Jimmy Saville

[@edhunt4909]

Totally agree

[@tinamiles9328]

he certainly was ,broke the poor man , he gave so much of himself to his public ,and then the media destroyed him

[@davehoward22]

he looked terrible at the end of his life

[@ChristineRead-ck1uq]

@EscapeTheMatrix...... Accusations were made against him that were proven to be a barrel of lies but as you say, it was wokery that eventually led to the end of his career. Awful. Thankfully, he was brought home to be buried with his parents on Merseyside.

[@andywright3450]

The one and only Freddie starr genius

[@susanlane8803]

RIP Freddie you were great!

[@kingfisher_man]

I remember watching this on TV. This just had me in tears. RIP Fred x

[@elliothughes9030]

The Joidanners said he was the greatest Elvis impersonation ever. That's telling you something. I saw him do it it. I was 11 years old in 1982. I'll never forget it.

[@tricia1234gm]

Freddie is an amazing singer in his own right, he has a fabulous voice. he loved Elvis.

[@johnstill164]

😚Freddie not only had a terrific singing voice...he "had me in stitches" with his [so] versatile comedy routines...he is missed, VERY much!! He was a "one-off" RIP

[@mariemiller8740]

He was brilliant may he rest in peace

[@aidiess]

Freddie was an amazing talent, but was also an unpredictable loose cannon ?? You never knew what he was going to do next - especially on live shows ! RIP Freddie !

[@richlee5578]

I remember him knocking dicky Davies (sports commentator)off his chair during a live broadcast,I was crying laughing for days😂

[@barrygentry5364]

Freddie was so talented and could impersonate many people but I think Elvis is the only one he didn’t turn into comedy. The Jordanaires were amazing and I would love to have a deep voice like the guy on the end. Great reaction again.

[@sum1434]

Freddie was a big Elvis fan and the best Elvis impersonator. Freddie was so multi talented and greatly missed. You should see his comedy impersonations 😂.

[@JohnSwindells-zm4sq]

Elvis was fantastic and Freddie was brilliantly fantastic ❤.

[@barrygentry5364]

Jess needs to search for “Freddie Starr the Legend tribute to Elvis”, 40 minutes of Freddie singing Elvis songs. You’ll love it ❤

[@Venus_Isle]

This is one of the better reaction channels out there. Either because of Jess's infectious laughing during the comedy segments, or in this case, because of how genuinely moved she seemed to be by Starr's voice.

[@RNTV]

Jess is definitely one of a kind. She makes everything better, including this channel.

[@jezfield8547]

WOW! I had forgotten how good Freddie Starr was and how talented! How good was that? i was only 10 years old when Elvis passed away....Jolly Good that!!!!😄

[@Jack-pu4rf]

I remember watching this live on Television, we always said that this was the very best Elvis act we had ever seen and we were Elvis Presley fans, the Jardinieres were great and Freddie Star was an all round entertainment system.

[@mrbillhicks]

I was fortunate enough to see Freddie in concert a couple of times and I can report that the guy was a genius, a true one off.... As I am writing this Elvis has just started playing on the radio....

[@petercaulf]

Elvis made many movies, most really beaten up by the critics but as a boy growing up in the 50s and 60s I couldn't wait for each new one to be released. My favourite back then was Kissing Cousins, where he played identical twins. Freddie was always so respectful with his Elvis impersonations. Great reaction. Thanks

[@niallmcentee9400]

Freddies impressions were mostly for comedy value but he was a massive Elvis fan and took singing his songs very seriously. His mimicking of Elvis voice was effortless

[@michaelisles4756]

I was lucky enough to have seen Freddie live and met him after true comedy Legend RIP

[@neilpearce]

Yeah I saw him in Ipswich, Suffolk. He was hilarious!

[@francislaverty9262]

Always great to see the both of you. The Jordanaires provided the backing vocals for Elvis up until 1970 (from 1956) - 1970 was considered the last great year of his career, so the Jordanaires were a mainstay during his success

[@martindunstan8043]

What a great reaction,made better by the fact the young lady loves Elvis and enjoyed Freddie singing one of his songs,nice one guys✌️

[@christinepittard3479]

What a voice freddie , god bless you 🇬🇧

[@johnjones-henderson3249]

Freddie we miss him so much natural talent you too guys are great your missus face when they started singing priceless ❤

[@jonnno243]

Thank you for reacting to this superb performance. I saw Freddie perform live in the 80s, and he had the whole audience crying with laughter for the whole show..including me :) Another guy who does good impressions that I like is Stevie Riks. He does very good Elvis tributes. My favourites from him are, The Impossible Dream and If I can Dream

[@billwhite8479]

So very dearly missed.. a pure talented performer..

[@peterkirby2771]

I remember this and after the Jordanaires where shocked by Freddie’s voice they said that Elvis was there .

[@popmanning]

As a local lad from my home town of liverpool I was privileged to see Freddie at the Wooky Hollow cabaret club. He was an amazing live performer. His original zany routines would literally leave you with pains from laughing . And he did it all while overcoming a speech impediment. Truly unique . His like do not come along that often. His singing voice and his appearances on the Des O'Connor show bring back fond memories. There is no substitute for natural talent.

[@johnstill164]

Fantastic, guys! I'm so glad you have, at last..."discovered" Freddie Starr...a favorite of the British people, without a doubtMy best to you both...

[@tonycharlton4296]

As so many of you I watched this when broadcast. Proved what a talent both for comedy and singing he had.

[@davidbuchanan3374]

Folk's great reaction. Please react to Freddie doing his impression of Ray Charles the jazz singer. This show is live and even funnier than his Vincent routen..Best wishes from the Giants Causeway here in Northern Ireland ❤️❤️❤️👍

[@spursgirl5]

This brings tears to my eyes every time I watch it. Freddie Starr and the Jordanaires are great. I was brought up on Elvis...he was the King and always will be. Loved watching your face Jess, it said so much. RIP Elvis ♥

[@robcannon9165]

Hi Guys greetings from England 🇬🇧 you really should check out Freddie Starr appearances on The Des O' Connor Show and this was a popular English TV Chat Show and poor Des O'Connor was quite literally terrified when Freddie was on his show as he never knew what Freddie was going to do and its so worth while checking out Freddie on the Des O' Connor Show.

[@bobbyboko6317]

Love that you react to Freddie he definitely shouldn't be forgotten 😊

[@karlratcliffe1830]

jess I loved your very emotional reaction, I sat here in the u k feeling exactly the same

[@Keiron-pw6sl]

I've listened to this many times i miss Freddie still get chill's everytime i listen to this 💖

[@Mariethename99]

He can sing beautifully ❤

[@watchreadplayretro]

FANtastic! Your faces said it all during the reaction, thanks guys!

[@Steve-nu4sv]

This was a segment in a show called "An Audience With" where performers were invited to perform in front of an audience of celebrities. Freddie was well known for his outrageous sense of humour and practical jokes. When he left the stage to interact with the audience you could see people in the audience getting nervous and agitated hoping he'd pick on soneone else😅. A multi talented man.

[@mikepinhorn1596]

I love Freddie Starr! Thank you for taking me back. You should also watch his stand-up, where he brings members of the audience on stage. Brilliant!

[@seanmc1351]

guys you should watch this one with freddie doing elvis, he has the elvis suit on, the hair, he does the elvis triology, which elvis did in hawaii, Freddie Starr - Elvis Presley Tribute

[@eifiondavies1889]

Freddie star was unique,he could do it all ,from comedy,acting,through to his singing voice,impersonating Elvis was his best beautiful voice.unfortunately he suffered bad with depression.watched him live on number of occasions he was the best,his comedy was fantastic.him and jethro both had beautiful voices jethro was a story teller,they were fantastic if u have a weak heart,don’t.both were a great loss R.I.P Freddie star,jethro🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️

[@jkpole]

JUST WOW

[@andywrong3247]

As an 11year old kid on holiday in Cornwall England the news came over the radio of elvis death hit me hard I remember tearing up on the back seat of the car.it was painfull & joyfull listening to his songs that particular day.

[@jezfield8547]

Jess. your reaction to that was PRICELESS😁The Jordanaires were fantastic! what a foursome. Thankyou xx

[@garyc5483]

Great reaction. So glad you did not pause it. ATB regards

[@RayLawlor-y2n]

I'm ray from Portsmouth UK, originally from London. I watch you views on freddy Starr. And it's a good feeling seeing someone else admire the raw talent. My father who was a music purist, would say stuff like , why is he taking the piss, why doesn't he just sing it properly. My father had his own opinion, but given that he used to drink and play darts with Tom Jones, who knows. It put me off performing music. My father was actually right, the few times freddy sang serious. I'm waffling.. the thing that most brits don't even know, freddy started his career as a singer. At the same time as the Beatles and all the other famous bands evolved. Freddie's band was called Freddie starr and the midnighters. It was on you tube.. His comedy was an accident of queue blocking at an early stage of his singing. Just letting you guys know.. just a little backstory. And there is a lot more singer impressions that Freddie has done. But for your guys personal journey. Maybe have a look, Freddie Starr and the midnighters. Xx love your reviews on loads of your reviews

[@aarontrowsdale]

My dad loved Elvis Presley and I was named after him rip dad ❤

[@cockneygeezer3528]

I'm now in my 80s and a life long Elvis fan, I left school in the 50s and with my first weeks wage of £4, I went out and got an Elvis LP, sadly I lost it with all my other records in a house fire in 2022. Love your reaction thanks

[@neilperry2224]

My mother had all the American gospel elvis albums, and so.e person in the royal navy female stole them all from her locker.

[@lindamerrett6600]

Amazing , love Freddie Starr,RIP 🇬🇧

[@johnsmith-es7zk]

He also sang 'The Girl of My Best Friend' with the Jordanaires on the same show.

[@robmartin525]

And 'Can't Help Falling in Love' too!!! That's my favourite Elvis song!

[@johnstill164]

Hi, Jess and Mike...ANOTHER Brit worth checking out performing as 'ELVIS' if you haven't seen him, is Ben Portsmouth. This man is uncanny, believe me! Looking forward to more from you both...

[@cadifan]

I got to meet The Jordanaires and get their autographs in the early 90s when they came to New Zealand to back Elvis tribute artist Mike Albert who in their opinion was very much like the real thing. To say I was BUZZING would be an understatement!

[@dalefairbairn6899]

He did a great Mick Jagger impression very funny love Freddie star .

[@johnshea5967]

Fancy an Englishman being one of the very best Elvis impersonators you've ever heard, then add his comedy!❤❤

[@seanmc1351]

im 59 years old, elvis was the the top, bought all his lp's and stuff even after his death, i remember his death, im from the UK, and i was on holiday with my grandaparents, in the UK the summer break from school was 6 weeks, both my parents worked, so we went to our grandparents for the summer, 3 weeks at one grandparents and 3 weeks at another, i remember, sitting, my grandmother cutting my hair and it came on the news that elvis had passed, after that, we played his records, stop start copy the lyrics so i could sing along, the tape recorder was better than the record player, what i find different now, is elvis came from the US, the fonze, skate boards, even top gun, so many american things filtered there way to the UK then europe, with the fonze, top gun, the fashion, we all buy leather jackets beatle crushers whit T shirts, then top gun, flight jackets and i iconic mirror sun glasses, but over the last 10 to 20 years, america has lost that greatness what we thought, to the point we dont care, what you have what your doing, all we hear now, is corruption, guns, school shootings, hi medical, poverty, they may now be because of more social media, guys you fallen behind in the US, come after me in the comments if you want

[@jasonthomas208]

Your Vincent reaction earned you a sub and Jess's reaction on this one is just epic, she was in heaven. Do more guys :(

[@chrisgalliford]

Good morning I thought I’d send you this. I didn’t really know where to put it but I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. It’s your mate Fred star doing one of our greatest rock ‘n’ roll stars Mick Jagger from the Rolling Stones. This guy is amazing. I understand why you love him so much yet again, thank you thank you, kind regards, Christopher

[@boblilley7429]

Looking at her face she was smitten ❤

[@kennyDerbyshire]

Freddie star was a great singer and comedian and came from LIVERPOOL

[@thomaswilson7453]

Mike & Jess BEAUTIFUL 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻…..👌🏻

[@seeker1432]

Freddie had them come back again for a second time. The videos out there.

[@robhallam8047]

Been searching for a video of Freddie's full Elvis tribute from back in the 70,s....finally found it!! Not the greatest quality and quite long but if you want to skip to the last song you'll be blown away! Search for Freddie Starr The Legend tribute to Elvis

[@stuartsimister5042]

We had the beatles and stones in England but they all wanted to be elvis.The king.

[@johncraven2614]

Freddie could be Elvis, Elvis couldn't be Freddie!

[@dickyt1318]

ELVIS IS BACK IN THE ROOM !

[@jezfield8547]

WOW!!! is all you can say, lovely reaction Jess😄

[@Alanthemulk]

Freddie did sing another song with the Jordanaires called "the girl of my best friend".... Brilliant.

[@scottishalwaysdixie1638]

Legend of Man

[@SeanHendy]

The misremembering of the title of the song reminds me of that talent show clip where the woman says she is going to sing 'Ken Lee' lmao.

[@dennisstaines8005]

Freddie was a brilliant singer and his shows were very good. A very sad loss and always a pleasure to watch.

[@lovelybitofbugle219]

Wonderful

[@ironclad57]

Several years ago,my friend Johnny Earl toured Europe with the Jordanaires backing him. They said of him that, although he sang Elvis songs, he never tried to impersonate him.

[@christophercarr3755]

We Love you Freddie. RIP

[@MrDaiseymay]

YOU ARE A LOVELY COUPLE, WHO HVE A HUGE RANGE OF APPRECIATION, IN COMEDY AND MUSIC. WE LOVE SHARING YOUR ENJOYMENT

[@juneyoshihiro844]

Wish I knew about more Freddie Starr B4 he passed.

[@robhallam8047]

Saw him live many times back in the early 70's when I was a kid. His comedy show used to end and then the auditorium lights would go down and (I think it was this)...Strauss's Sprach Zarathustra would play and then "Elvis" would appear before our very eyes (70's style Elvis in white rhinestone encrusted jump suit)!! Freddie would perform lots of Elvis songs to end a fantastic evening of entertainment.

[@paulwhitmore4240]

You got to give this a try Freddie Starr | Mick Jagger Impression | 1970 Royal Variety Performance

[@cooter-of7ej]

he sounds great

[@robbiedrummond4513]

He was an official Elvis impersonator.

[@TedC5203]

The Jordanaires sang backup for so many artists.

[@ChristineRead-ck1uq]

They were reported as saying he did the best Elvis impression they'd ever heard.

[@philgreen8277]

Freddie loved Elvis music and him too.

[@ElandBee]

Freddie fronted a band called Freddie Starr and the Midnighters in the 60s. They were promoted by Brian Epstein and, I'm showing my age here, I saw them many times in the local dance halls in the North West of England. He was very zany even then!

[@PaulDrake-u7m]

So glad I found your channel and a beautiful reaction from the beyond gorgeous Jess. Love her laugh as well. Thank you.

[@Alanthemulk]

Freddie star was Britains greatest all round enterner... There was nothing he couldn't do.. brilliant comedian and boy what an incredible voice he had.. the Jordanaires said at that moment in time Freddie was the closest to Elvis voice wise they had ever heard... Treated badly by the British press which he then retreated to Spain to escape all the garbage that was banded about.. then sadly he passed away a couple of years ago... R.I.P BRITAINS GREATEST ENTERTAINER....

[@seanmc1351]

Freddie was a legend, sadly passed away, he got caught up in the jimmy saville thing, operration yew tree, i wont go into it, he was cleared, but took a toll on his health and finaces, sadly the stress really finish him off, it died a porper, i have hear the undertakers paid for his funeral, I remember seeing his last interview, when he was cleared, he was a shaddow of the man he was, and you could see he was broken RIP freddie

[@danielhead8123]

Don't is my fav Elvis song next to don't cry daddy

[@petershapland81]

There are more clips of Freddie and the jordinaires. One he does he sings my best friends girl with them.

[@Robsonwoodhouse]

Can you please react to The one and only Freddie starr Freddie starr what I say live Freddie starr and Des O'Connor 10th appearance 1994 The Very best of Freddie Starr

[@Jonnydog1]

The Jordanaires - how very professional.

[@delskioffskinov]

Loved this video guys Freddie is wee Starr. lol

[@BluMerv05]

Hi Mike & Jess, great reaction and yes Freddie does a brilliant (for you Jess) Elvis impersonation. If you're back doing a few music reactions then another fantastic one is Glennis Grace who covers a music great, namely Whitney Houston with 'Run To You' from Ladies of Soul 2017. She is truly amazing, it is like it is Whitney reincarnated.

[@witsend236]

Fun fact - Julius Caesar also had a backing group called the Legionaries, long before you were born.

[@MrBrookesharley]

I SAW FREDDIE do a one off elvis tribute show no comedy just straight amazing i would say he must have channelled the soul of elvis , next is elvis secret visit to london in 1957 with rock n roll cockney singer and actor tommy steele

[@dolfin98]

Freddie is great But Elvis is the King!

[@steveroberts9917]

Freddie was a genius, so much talent....

[@kramalbion]

Freddie did quite a few songs with them all from the same show, Girl of my best friend and too much monkey business being my favourites ,you need to react to those too.

[@ahawkins628]

Freddie did sing more songs with the Jordanaires later on the show

[@andywrong3247]

Hey guys, check. Out Freddie Starr doing mic jagger imppression& ray Charles impression..

[@AlanKenny-y8e]

Long before his comedy career, Freddie fronted a couple of bands in Liverpool back in the Merseybeat days of the early 60s. Freddie Starr and The Midnighters, also Freddie Starr and The Delmonts.
