P.J. has been stabbed in the back so many times he understandably trusts hardly anyone.He has been helped out financially sometimes,he has also done the same for other people. For the last 20 years he has not touched alcohol & so he's now singing better than ever,looking good & getting plenty of work. Give the guy a break!
Proby has influenced many singers & groups. But in show-biz there are many selfish people & they will never credit P.J. with anything SO he has to do all the crediting himself.LOL! He's a legend & the equal of Elvis musically.....& twice the character!
@DenimAllowed Yessss maybe on my prayer, but for me the whole arrangement and vocal expression that Jim puts into this song makes the Cats version seem pale. Plus thier diction wasn't too good. For me Beleive it or Not was a undiscovered work of Genius between songwriter and a much overlooked interpreter of song. He may have been eccentric, but never boring !
P.J.Proby....one of the best ever vocalists has many,many fans. His special character also attracts morons who hate him! Just like you they talk crap!! LOL! On the "Wheeltappers" clip P.J. is brilliant! it was the hosts & audience who were pissed! Proby impresses lots of music fans...you & your anti Proby pals impress nobody! Any rotten answer you give will be scrapped from my computer straight away.
Right - people who want to see real "class" can take a look at Proby three sheets to the wind on stage in P J PROBY-WHEELTAPPERS AND SHUNTERS-ITV-27.7.74. Or better yet, see him being his classy drunken and slovenly self in the Three Week Hero videos. Then there's the BAILEY RITZ Interviews P.J. PROBY where he talks total trash about Elvis driving a flashy pink Cadillac around Houston before anybody knew who Elvis Presley was. It doesn't take much to impress you does it?
Charismaticart, Some people may "appreciate" PJ Proby, others dislike him or don't care one way or the other. YOU wouldn't know there were negative comments here if YOU hadn't taken precious time to read them. Why didn't YOU just listen to the video and move on? Are you a self-appointed censor of UA-cam comments? What makes you think PJ's fans appreciate you ordering them around like brainless sheep who can't think for themselves? Afraid negative comments will change their opinion about him?
So you meant you'd love to see Led Zep invite PJ onstage at a gig you hope they will do even though they don't do them anymore? LOL! If you spoke English well people could understand you. If you'd kept up with the careers of the real stars of rock you wouldn't be making a fool of yourself posting stupid comments about PJ Proby on their sites. I noticed you didn't post that PJ says Page wasn't good enough to play lead guitar on Hold Me. Funny. PJ doesn't mind sounding stupid either.
Wonderful song....wonderful composers...wonderful singer!
This is one of his best ever. The lp was a truly overlooked classic !
Everything Proby did or does is class!
I'm spellbound by this Truely Wonderful singer, P.J.Proby.
Another fantastic song

Maybe you'll "contact" Plant and get back with us on the details of that Led Zep tour. I won't hold my breath. LOL
