Robert Plant with a harmonica
Just a quick sidenote… Some might be wondering, what did Robert Plant do on “Jim’s Blues?” Well, he’s credited as ‘Harmonicas & backing vocals.’ #RobertPlant #LedZeppelin #PJProby #OneHitWondered
P.J. Proby's 1968 UK album Three Week Hero front cover
In 1968, P.J. Proby recorded his UK ‘comeback’ album, Three Week Hero. Session arranger John Paul Jones brought in his new bandmates to round out the session... This meant Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Paul Jones, and John Bonham backed Proby… #PJProby #OneHitWondered
P.J. Proby’s UK career was crippled overnight. Sure, he started wearing ‘un-splittable’ buckskin trousers, but the damage to his reputation was done. An industry-wide ban is what eventually forced Proby to run back to America, leading to his only US #Top40 hit "Niki Hoeky." #PJProby #OneHitWondered
That TV show was a game changer… Made for international broadcast, it put P.J. Proby’s face in front of the biggest teen audience on earth. He started racking up UK Top 10s, led by “Hold Me,” which peaked at #3 in the UK. Now P.J. Proby was an international pop star. #PJProby #OneHitWondered
Jett Powers met Sharon Sheeley, a young songwriter who was already plugged into the early rock ’n’ roll. She was the kind of person who could open doors… and did. She basically ‘rebrands’ him: pushing him to drop Jett Powers and use P.J. Proby instead. #SharonSheeley #PJProby #OneHitWondered
The week ending February 25, 1967, Texas-born singer/songwriter & actor P.J. Proby earned US #OneHitWonder honors when his cajun-flavored rave-up “Niki Hoeky” entered the US #Billboard #Top40 at #34. The single spent 5 weeks on the chart, peaking at #23. #PJProby #OneHitWondered

Judge - do the right thing, listen to Lonely Teardrops & let the old boy go. He's given more than he's taken. #pjproby www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2111180/PJ-...
