Jan. 8 would be the King's 87th birthday. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. In the 50s and early 60s, a number of other singers released records in his style. Here are several that made the top 40. All good songs. But who captures Elvis's sound the best?
From 1956. According to legend, when Gladys Presley first heard this on the radio, she thought her son had released a new single.
Released in 1959. Ray Smith's only hit song.
A top 10 hit from 1964.
My choice for the winner. Made #3 in 1961. Ral Donner sounds more like Elvis than Elvis himself. Kinda looks like him, too.
