  • Did you know that Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash used to impersonate each other.
    The rare footage included dates back to a 1959 tour. Cash was the opening act; Presley, the headliner; and each night, "Cash would impersonate his friend and touring partner, and then Elvis would come out and do the same. An audio recording of Presley imitating Johnny Cash at the International Hotel showroom in Las Vegas is also included.
    Unfortunately, there is no video footage available of Elvis performing his impressive impressions of Johnny Cash. However, an expressive audio performance of Elvis Live onstage in Las Vegas is included. Only the select few who attended were fortunate enough to view this spectacular spectacle.
    Special thanks to DJ Dallas for inspiring me to make this video and researching the rare footage!!

    Johnny being Elvis was HYSTERICAL! Who knew Cash had so much hip movement in him! Too bad no live footage of E doing J. Great vid.

Sort of like when the media used to refer to the Beatles as 4 young lads from liverpool. Btw, didn't the Beatles and Elvis compose "Blue Suede Shoes"? :-o.

      Elvis impersonation was more difficult to do than Johnny's.Johnny never could have sung like Elvis.Elvis had a much bigger octave range of 4 to 5.Elvis was a comedian and could do a funny imitation if he prefered.They were friends.Johnny was the opening act for Elvis in the Louisiana Hayride in '55 .

    I’m 60 years old and I’m from Switzerland (Lucerne), I’ve been listening to Elvis since I was 10 years old, I watched Elvis' live concert in Hawaii in 1973. I appreciate many kinds of good music, I also know all the songs of Johnny Cash and June Carter (Great) and other great artists. However, Elvis remains the greatest musician and entertainer of all time, but in all his songs, all the power of his soul comes out. One could also say that he gave his whole heart to his listeners. This way is definitely unique and I think it will remain so.

    They were both ridiculously talented at mimicking sounds, but what is not talked about enough is how very funny both Elvis and Johnny Cash were. I realized long ago that much of their allure was in the fact that they never took themselves too seriously, despite their fanatical fans. Most of the time, they were laughing at the implausibility of their reality. The comedic talent they were given was just overkill for two guys with such musical talent.
