"Just Tell Her Jim Said Hello" is a song originally recorded by Elvis Presley with backing vocals provided by The Jordanaires. It was written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller and published by Elvis Presley Music, Inc.. It reached number 55 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1962.
Elvis Presley recorded the song on March 19, 1962, at RCA Studio B in Nashville, Tennessee. The recording sessions featured Grady Martin on guitar and vibes, Harold Bradley and Scotty Moore on guitar, Bob Moore on bass, Buddy Harman and D.J. Fontana on drums, Floyd Cramer on piano and organ, Boots Randolph on saxophone and vibes. Additional vocals were provided by Millie Kirkham and The Jordanaires.
The song was recorded during a two-night recording session in March 1962 in Nashville that resulted in
Elvis' album ''Pot Luck''. The Elvis Presley official website recounts: ''Released just one year after his last studio album, ''Pot Luck'' was the product of a two-night Nashville session in March. All the songs were newly written save for the Leiber-Stoller catalog composition "Just Tell Her Jim Said Hello," which Hill and Range rep Freddy Bienstock was so convinced was going to be a hit that it was saved for single release from the start. The song was released as a single, with "She's Not You" on the opposite side, on July 17, 1962.
Freddy Bienstock was proved wrong. "Just Tell Her Jim Said Hello," for all of its good qualities, was not the hit he was certain it would be. Instead, "She's Not You," the new Leiber-Stoller-Pomus composition, performed surprisingly well as an uncharacteristically pensive A-side, selling 800,000 copies and underscoring Elvis' sense of himself in his new interpretive role. "She's Not You" peaked on the Billboard Hot 100 at number five, while "Just Tell Her Jim Said Hello" peaked at number 55. Later the song was included on the Elvis' compilation ''Elvis' Gold Records Volume 4'', dropped on January 22, 1968.
