Elvis Presley Song:

Blue Moon of Kentucky (1954)

(Music and lyrics by Bill Monroe)

Bill Monroe wrote this song in 1946 as a "bluegrass" waltz. Elvis recorded it to be the flip side to That's All Right Mama single. When Elvis, Scotty Moore, and Bill Black were playing around with it, they changed the slow waltz into an upbeat, blues-flavored tune in 4/4 tempo "Blue moon, blue moon, blue moon, keep shining bright. Blue moon, keep on shining bright, You're gonna bring me back my baby tonight, Blue moon, keep shining bright."

24K Gold Music Shows
50s/60s/Elvis/oldies showband in Florida


If I Can Dream by 24K Gold Music Shows       More videos

24K Gold Music Shows is a large oldies musical revue (126 people) performing primarily in Florida. The shows are filled with lots of choreography, energy, and great fun with oldies, country, and Elvis songs.

The last 1/3 of each evening show is an Elvis Tribute, featuring his music based on arrangements from his 1970s concerts. And every show is different.

24K Gold Music Shows understands there was only one Elvis Presley, so NO ONE in in the band will ever attempt to "impersonate" Elvis or pretend to be him, nor even be as good as Elvis! The show they are doing is a sincere tribute to the King, with NO attempt to mock him.

So in 24K Gold Music Shows Elvis tribute show you will be reminded of Elvis through his songs, sung with similar arrangements to those he used in concert, and see some similar costumes to those he wore, just for nostalgia's sake.
