This is a simple video I made to the song Fire Down below that Elvis´ bass player Jerry Scheff wrote for Elvis. The musical track was recorded at Graceland in 1976, but Elvis never got to record the vocal track for it. On this recording Terry Mike Jeffery is singing the song with the original musical track from 1976.
This video is intended to promote Jerry Scheff's CD Fire Down Below. Please visit his website http://www.jerryscheff.com to purchase the CD and listen to what he has to say about the writing of the song and this last recording session with Elvis.
On the CD you will also find a "modern version" of the song from 2001 as well as 2 sing along versions of it.
You can also purchase his autobiography (book) and signed photos from his online store.

Video Picture: Jerry Scheff with Elvis Presley live in Cleveland, Ohio on October 23, 1976. Jerry Scheff born January 31st, 1941 in Denver, Colorado grew up in the San Francisco Bay area. After serving in the U.S. Navy he returned to California, ending up in Los Angeles as a session musician. After working at the Sands night club in Los Angeles with 16 year old Billy Preston, Merry Clayton, and Don "Sugarcane" Harris, he played on his first hit record, The Association's "Along Comes Mary" (1966). That success led to other early record appearances with Bobby Sherman, Johnny Mathis, Johnny Rivers, Neil Diamond, Nancy Sinatra, Pat Boone, Sammy Davis Jr., Bobby Vinton, The Everly Brothers, and the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. In 1971, he appeared on L.A. Woman, the final album recorded by The Doors with Jim Morrison. In July 1969, Scheff became a member of Elvis Presley's touring TCB Band. With the band, he performed on tour in concert with Presley from August 1969 to February 1973 and again after over a 2 year break from touring upon returning to Elvis Presley's band from April 1975 until Presley's final show on June 26, 1977 at the Market Square Arena in Indianapolis. He appears on Aloha from Hawaii (Elvis' 1973 live television concert), "Back In Memphis", That's The Way It Is, Elvis As Recorded At Madison Square Garden, the documentary movie from 1972 Elvis On Tour, and Moody Blue, among others. In later years, Scheff worked with Willy DeVille, Bob Dylan, John Denver, Elvis Costello, The Doors, Sam Phillips, Richard Thompson, and many other artists. Scheff also was a bassist for Southern Pacific on their debut album. He also participated in the 1987 cable television concert Roy Orbison and Friends, A Black and White Night. In June 2009 he gave a sold out performance in Breda, Netherlands with the remaining TCB band members. Scheff has two sons: Jason and Darin Scheff. Jason has been the bassist for the band Chicago since 1985. As of 2010 he now splits his time in his home in a small village in Northumberland, England with his wife Natalie and in his native California. Scheff wrote the 2012 musical autobiography titled Way Down: Playing Bass with Elvis, Dylan, the Doors, and More: The Autobiography of Jerry Scheff.

Please use headphones for best audio... Jerry Scheff recorded the bass line with the TCB band in the jungle room at Graceland on Feb 4th 1976 and was the last number 1 in Elvis lifetime... It was played on a fretted, but here I'm using my old fretted fender. I went to Graceland a few years back and you can still feel the buzz in the jungle room where many recordings were done. As always no bass backing from KV custom tracks

Jerry Obern Scheff (Born 1941) is an American bassist, perhaps best known for his work with Elvis Presley in the early 1970s as a member of his TCB Band and his work on The Doors' final recordings.
Scheff grew up in the San Francisco Bay area. After serving in the U.S. Navy he returned to California, ending up in Los Angeles as a session musician. His first big break was The Association's "Along Comes Mary" (1966), and that success led to numerous other record appearances: Bobby Sherman, Johnny Mathis, Johnny Rivers, Neil Diamond, Nancy Sinatra, Pat Boone, Sammy Davis Jr., Bobby Vinton, The Everly Brothers, and the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. In 1971 he appeared on L.A. Woman, the final album recorded by The Doors with Jim Morrison.
In July 1969 Scheff became a member of Elvis Presley's touring TCB Band. He appears on Aloha from Hawaii (Elvis' 1973 live television concert), "Back In Memphis", That's The Way It Is, Elvis As Recorded At Madison Square Garden," and Moody Blue, among others, and continued working off and on with Presley until his death.[citation needed]

Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was one of the most popular American singers of the 20th century. A cultural icon, he is widely known by the single name Elvis. He is often referred to as the "King of Rock and Roll" or simply "the King".
Born in Tupelo, Mississippi, Presley moved to Memphis, Tennessee, with his family at the age of 13. He began his career there in 1954, working with Sun Records owner Sam Phillips, who wanted to bring the sound of African American music to a wider audience. Accompanied by guitarist Scotty Moore and bassist Bill Black, Presley was the most important popularizer of rockabilly, an uptempo, backbeat-driven fusion of country and rhythm and blues. RCA Victor acquired his contract in a deal arranged by Colonel Tom Parker, who would manage the singer for over two decades. Presley's first RCA single, "Heartbreak Hotel", released in January 1956, was a number one hit. He became the leading figure of the newly popular sound of rock and roll with a series of network television appearances and chart-topping records. His energized interpretations of songs, many from African American sources, and his uninhibited performance style made him enormously popular—and controversial. In November 1956, he made his film debut in Love Me Tender.
