Great interview! We're losing these guys every day. Glad you grabbed Richard.. Speaking of J.D. Sumner, ironically Elvis convinced J.D. to stop drinking whiskey. No one convinced Elvis to stop taking drugs.

Deeper than that, if Elvis had never taken a drug, he would have still died in his 40's like his mother and her two brothers. He had Alpha 1 double gene because his mother's parents were first cousins which there was no cure in those days. All inherited lung disease, which people saw Elvis using an inhaler before concerts, he had heart disease, which was witness to by hair dresser Larry Geller who said he had a mild heart attack in 1975 but make Larry promise not to tell anyone. He was in pain the last 4 years of his life. He really used pain killers then. His bloated look and pasty skin was from his liver not filtering toxins in his body. His father had his autopsy sealed till 2026, but his personal physician said 9 of the 11 systems in the body were completely blocked. read the book by Sally Hoedel, "Destined to Die Young".

Fantastic interview, i always think back to when they were around the piano and elvis tried to compete with who had the deepest voice, Eivis lost and grabbed JD's head in his hands laughing, ithink its fate to say that Elvis knew exactly who were a good fit for him and Richard was lucky to be a lady of that, well done guys for being able to interview the few that are still alive who have great stories to tell about Elvis. 🇬🇧🇺🇸

@Cynthia00007 Год назад

All time great interview. Richard is a very loyal and sincere friend to ELVIS, he has so many memories of his time with ELVIS. A REAL friend to ELVIS. RIchard is right, Gospel singing was ELVIS'S TRUE calling 💯🎤🎶❤️❤️❤️

Great interview I am a Elvis Historian and defender of the facts and this guy could sing and was in the inner circle he was always singing after the shoes in vegas Elvis loved his voice and had so much respect for him.

@mgcole5586 5 месяцев назад

This is a great interview. Rich is a wonderful storyteller. After hearing Rich tell the story of Elvis' charisma, magnetism when coming into a room, I now believe he was put on this earth specifically by God himself. Thanks Rich

@tiki2926 Год назад

I have to say one thing… THE most valuable experience we ( fans of your channel and IG ) get to witness is the incredible bond between a father and son. A journey taken together that will live forever in your hearts, and these videos decades from now will be revisited by Michael to reflect on the amazing journey you shared together , which is priceless. As a father of two young men myself, the family values you hold are beautiful. God Bless❤

@epbackontour Год назад

Thank you for taking time to say that! I’m amazed when I look back at the miles we’ve traveled documenting Elvis and the buildings he played. I’m blessed beyond measure to have a son like Michael! Thanks for noticing the bond we have!

@toddwilliams1380 Год назад

This is awesome! I love hearing stories of Elvis of course but JD as well! I was able to meet him several times. Actually talked to him on phone not long after his wife ,Mary passed away. JD was one of a kind. Just his sense of humor & his voice. They will never ever be another bass singer like JD. He was the best but Rich is right there with him! Loved this interview, thanks for sharing!

@ppresley9208 Год назад

Thanks guys for this wonderful interview with Richard Sterban ... always wondered why he left Elvis . He made the right choice ... 50 years with the mighty Oaks ! He certainly sounds like he had great respect and admiration for Elvis ... and that endears him to me even more ! Thank you Richard ... TCB forever !

@georgiafaucett6301 Год назад

Great interview, guys!! I really enjoyed listening to Mr. Sterban!! His speaking voice is still as smooth as his singing voice!! I learned so much more about the Oak Ridge Boys, and some new stuff about Elvis too!! I hope you guys have opportunities to do more interviews just like this one!! Well done all around!!!

@epbackontour Год назад

Thank you! This was a true honor! Not only did I love him during the Elvis years but I love the way he laid down his own legacy with the Oak Ridge Boys!

@ROCKINGMAN Год назад

Nice interview with Richard Sterban. Always thought that it was a real shame that Elvis' first concert at Las Vegas in 1969 and outside Las Vegas- Houston Astradome 1970, New York 1972 and others were not properly filmed.

@VFAFOOTY Год назад

does make you wonder it also hurts knowing parker had so many contacts could of been organised very cheap .... what might of been :(

@elvisfan61 Год назад

Grrrrreat interview! Better than I expected. What a great story teller Richard is. Thanks for inserting the parts where you'd see Richard in the old clips to get a glimpse of him. I always enjoy that. I know this was about Elvis, but something tells me I'm going to have the song Elvira in my head for the rest of the day! 😂

@epbackontour Год назад

Glad you enjoyed it!

@billhiner2000 Год назад

The cool thing about THAT version of Polk Salad Annie (Hampton 1972) is that Richard Sterban comes in early and sings the whole line "Polk Salad Annie, Gator's got your Granny!" The full audio isn't in the movie, it's only on the boxed set from last year. I think that's why Elvis made his comment.

@tiki2926 Год назад

Awesome work Guys!!! Love your attention to, and respect towards Mr. Sterban’s own achievements as well. Fantastic

@epbackontour Год назад

It was an honor for us to speak with him! Amazing man!

Well, well, well, boy mah boy!!!! Wow, Wow, Wow, and a quadruple Wow for good measure 👏 What an absolutely downright sensationally, wonderfully splendid, swell, presentation you gentlemen have done here in every single aspect. I can't even begin to find the words to fully express just how much of an amazingly special, meaningfully exhilarating treat it was to see and hear Mr Richard Sterban sharing and recounting all of his experiences. I thoroughly and truly, deeply, sincerely love, love, love, everything you fellas bring within your channel 😀 May the Good Lord abundantly bless you and your loved ones, and I wholeheartedly wish you nothing but the very, very, best of things in all things.

OMG, This is great. This is a golden gem of an opportunity. The wonderful Richard Sterban and his lifelong extraordinary journey in music. I remember first seeing him in the On Tour film and then the Oakridge Boys of course. Always wondered about him. Great to see him looking and sounding so good. How wonderful to get his story. Thank you, Richard -What a cool, nice, talented man. And Thank you Jay and Michael, this is outstanding.

Absolutely a Great interview.

@janinurbell4052 Год назад

Oooh yes, I subscribe immediately bcause love this interview (I’m glad Mr Rich answers himself to a question that you don’t asked him: his favorite Elvis’song) Many others one from huge fan like me, sure not in his book cause specially: how was the rehearsals, the pauses, the organization etc). Anyway, hope I’ll find his book in Europe!)🙏🏻🙌🏻🧡💙🕺💙🇫🇷💛🇺🇦

@tommyboo21 Год назад

So he's Rich from the MSG album!!! I'd known about this guy from On Tour but never made the connection. And always wondered about his whereabouts today. Thanks to you and your amazing channel, this great presentation now seals it all for me. Some On Tour scenes reveal how attentive Richard was to Elvis, as they all were really, but you'll notice Richard even looked for Elvis' approval after singing 'Sweet Sweet Spirit' on stage and during the 'I John' rehearsal clip. Just fabulous moments.

We are thrilled that you enjoy what we do!

@crooning4leftovers125 10 месяцев назад

Fabulous addition to the Elvis canon. Sterban’s telling of his first meeting Elvis [unusually late for a rehearsal in Minneapolis in November, 1971, just prior to the start of another tour] is alone worth the trip! (12:50). Great work, Boys! Keep these valuable, historical Elvis posts coming! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 ⚡️🕺🏼⚡️ 🎙️🎸 💖 TcB🐻

Saw Oakridge Boys for the first time in person many years ago when they were the opening act for the Kenny Rogers concert at Wings Stadium in Kalamazoo, Michigan. They were so good! I enjoyed Kenny Rogers, of course, but I really thought the Oakridge Boys were the best part of the concert.

@edgarallerman9187 Год назад

29:50 He received a phonecall while he was changing tires at the Galveston Tire dealership? That reminds me of those old Columbo episodes where the chief was always able to call the place where Columbo happen to be when he was out on the job somewhere.
