Chanteur
Country US né James Hughes Bell le 26 Février 1945 à Pascagoula (Mississippi). Orion est
décédé le 12 Décembre 1998. Il a aussi utilisé le nom de Jimmy Ellis, Steven Silver et de
Ellis James.
The music industry is filled with
many strange tales of artists whose lives took unexpected turns on the winding
road to success, but the saga of singer Jimmy Ellis is perhaps one of the
weirdest of them all. He was professionally known as Orion, and his double-edged
claim to fame was that his natural speaking and singing voice sounded almost
exactly like that of Elvis Presley.
Raised in Orrville, Alabama, Ellis began his recording career in 1964. In 1972,
he worked for Sun Records (Presley's
label) with producer Shelby Singleton in Nashville. His first two singles were
covers of two of the King's former hits, "That's All Right" and "Blue Moon of
Kentucky."
The strange part of the tale began in January 1979, when author Gail Brewer-Giorgio
received a bizarre early-morning phone call. Two years before she had begun a
novel about a musical superstar, Orion, who faked his own death to find much-needed
peace and privacy, based on the circumstances surrounding
Elvis' death. The
mysterious phone call came from a stranger with a Presley-like voice,
claiming to be Orion. A year prior, Jimmy Ellis'
voice had been overdubbed with Jerry Lee Lewis
on an old single from the Sun archives, "Save the Last Dance for Me"; on it, Ellis was billed oUSy
as "Friend." The single made the Top 20 and caused quite a stir as listeners
tried to guess the mysterious Friend's identity. An album featuring the duo
came out and the controversy really heated up when Good Morning America
had the Friend's voice "scientifically scanned and analyzed" and concluded that
it could be no one but Presley. Giorgio's book had just come out, so Singleton decided
to cash in on its popularity and transform Jimmy Ellis
into the mysterious "Orion"
who had phoned the author earlier that year. Ellis' hair and long
sideburns were dyed black, and he dressed in a loud, bejeweled polyester
jumpsuit, with a mask to protect him from crazed fans.
"Orion" recorded a
single, "Ebony Eyes," for Sun in 1979, which became part of his debut album, Reborn. The album
cover itself generated controversy because it depicted a phantom singer rising
from a coffin, and was later withdrawn. He released the Country, Rockabilly, and Glory albums in 1980,
along with Trio Plus, which featured Orion's voice
overdubbed on old cuts with Lewis,
Carl
Perkins, and Charlie Rich. The albums were quite popular, and Orion had three Top 70
hits, including "Am I That Easy to Forget." He had four minor hits the following
year, including the contemporary rockabilly song "Crazy Little Thing Called
Love," originally recorded by the rock group Queen. Ellis continued
recording and performing through 1983 as Orion, and scored oUSy
one more minor hit before trying to break his Sun contract to become a
recognized performer in his own right.
While performing at the Eastern States Exposition, Ellis took off the
mask and swore to never wear it again. Unfortunately, despite the fact that most
of the songs he recorded were not covers of Elvis songs, he could
not escape the uncanny similarities between their natural voices. At one point
he even released the single "I'm Trying Not to Sound Like Elvis." During his
time with Sun, Ellis/Orion
cut over 11 albums and toured with the Oak Ridge
Boys, Jerry Lee Lewis, and other stars like Dionne Warwick.
As Jim Ellis, he
released an album in 1987 and continued to tour North America; interestingly, he
resumed wearing his mask.
On December 12, 1998, Jimmy Ellis and
his ex-wife were both shot and killed by a man who was robbing his pawnshop in
Alabama.
