Answer 3

Last Man Standing. That's Jerry Lee Lewis. Part of the rock revolution and the Nashville Sound. They thought it would be the death of country music, but that was when country started to cross over into pop. Elvis, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins.

Answer 4

I love Jerry Lee Lewis. I consider him rock-a-billy. I bet he was fun to party with back in the day. He seems to be a real hoot.

Answer 5

AHHHHH!! The KILLER!!!



I have adored this man from the first time I saw him flicking his blonde forelock! I was 14.... I think I have everything he ever recorded.



Like Delbert McClinton, I think Jerry Lee is a honky-tonk, juke joint, bluesy guy with rock-n-roll when he needs to.... But, like Delbert, he can kick the you-know-what out of country.



For country "She Still Comes Around" can make the hair on the back of your neck stand up. "Why, Baby, Why"..another goodie. And I don't think anyone ever did a better job on "You Win Again".



But his "thang" is barRoom, down and dirty honky tonk and wicked R&R....



Our parents HATED him...worse than they did Elvis... Said he was immoral and his music seduced young girls and boys into all sorts of trouble. Then when he married his 13-year old second cousin....they almost fainted. We teenagers of the 50's were a rebellions bunch, though and we kept his music alive.



I wouldn't care if he sang the "All Time Hits of Tiny Tim", I'd buy it and love it.



THE KILLER ROCKS ON!!

Answer 8

You should hear his latest album "Last Man Standing"... Probably one of his best ever !!!!
