The Jordanaires with singers other than Elvis

Don Gibson - I Can't Stop Loving You

The nerve of that guy stealing Elvis' backup singers like that!!

Nice idea for a post, I'm sure we could all add a couple.

Virtually every Ricky Nelson hit. Most of Patsy Cline's hits.

This is a GORGEOUS version.

Don McLean's "Chain Lightning" LP features The Jords and they appeared on a BBC TV special with him in the late '70's, but the clips are not on Youtube.

Ringo Starr's Beaucops of Blues record features The Jordanaires. The entire LP is on YT. Download it Now

Yes, a decent album. Just a shame that 'Ringo' can't sing!

He wasn't that bad. The record had it's moments, be reasonable Tony.

During the first Columbia session around 1958 till early 60's Johnny Cash borrowed the Jord's several times. Although they're not always mentioned in the credits you can recognize their voices clearly.

The Jordanaires also backed up ETA's such as Johnny Harra and The Masked Orion.

Sister Rosetta Tharpe!

Just saw an amazing documentary. Will post. (This is a Kindle - no video.) The Jordanaires are prominent here.

Here you go (it's very long, and has her WHOLE, complex life - things I didn't know, but the music is key):

They backed Billy Ray Cyrus in 1993 on "When I'm Gone", as featured on his 2nd album "It Won't Be The Last". Purdy song sung in Elvis style.

Bro, check out Who Cares, Didn't Work Out Did it ? and Lonesome old House (all 3 are on YT and in Binaural). They're good.
