SCOTTY MOORE'S
A TRIBUTE TO THE KING
By Scotty Moore & Friends
Live At Abbey Road Studios
Released 16th May 2006
December
2004 and London’s famous Abbey Road Studios plays host to a stellar line-up
of legendary guitar gods, for a
very special one-off tribute concert in honour of
The King’s first guitarist, first
manager and life-long friend, Scotty
Moore.
Universal Music is proud to announce
the May 16th, 2006
DVD US premiere of
A Tribute To The King, featuring
the songs made famous by Elvis Presley,
by Scotty Moore and friends.
In a
year which saw the re-release of Presley’s
‘That’s Alright Mama’ commemorating
the 50th Anniversary of Rock
’n’ Roll, it seemed only fitting that celebrated guitarist
Scotty Moore should lead an exclusive
tribute concert, showcasing the music made famous by
The King of Rock N' Roll.
Moore was joined at Abbey
Road by a roster of international music heroes including
Eric Clapton,
Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour,
Mark Knopfler of
Dire Straits, The Rolling
Stones' Ron Wood and Bill Wyman, Albert Lee and many more.
The
shows music producers Ron Lovely and Bill Wyman invited the
UK's who's who of Rock to perform with the Guitarist Who Rocked the
World , Scotty Moore, on over two dozen Presley
recordings. Songs including ‘Heartbreak
Hotel’, ‘Shake, Rattle And Roll’,
‘All Shook Up’ and ‘Blue
Suede Shoes’ are captured for DVD
in stunning 5.1 dts, 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround Sound and 2.0 Dolby Stereo.
The producers also conducted extensive interviews with
Moore,
Jerry Schilling, Eric Clapton
and all the musicians who gathered at Abbey Road, in order to present a collection
of bonus feature interviews, exclusive to the DVD
A Tribute To The King.
Scotty Moore and his friend musician / music producer Ron Lovely wanted to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the first recordings by the trio Scotty Moore, Elvis Presley and Bill Black from their historic Sun Records sessions. Scotty told Ron, ' Elvis planned to tour Europe with Scotty and drummer D.J. Fontana, but soon after Presley's famous 1968 Comeback TV special Elvis went to Las Vegas instead.' So exactly 50 years later Scotty played the concert his good friend Elvis would have wanted to play. This Concert on Universal DVD is hosted by Elvis' life-long friend, Jerry Schilling.
Whilst
fans of Elvis hold a warm place
in their hearts for Presley's original manager, band leader
and guitar player on over 500 Elvis recordings,
Scotty Moore is cited as the
genuine rock pioneer by guitarists world wide.
A musical role model, respected and admired by professional and amateur
guitarists alike,
A Tribute To The King is a chance
for those fans to enjoy again the songs made famous by
Elvis Presley and the music he created
with Scotty Moore.
