You would be amazed to know most of the Roch n roll songs coming out of NYC or LA then were all using established Jaz musicians. Why - because they could read music. However it didn't take long for a group of younguns who could read took their place.

You’re right about “the Killer.” He’s a crazy hillbilly. Although it hasn’t been captured on film there have been witnessed stories about him setting the piano on fire and then pushing it out into the audience. And of the four only true rock and roll performers, Chuck Berry, Elvis, Little Richard, and Jerry Lee Lewis, he’s the only one still alive and for the life he’s lived that makes absolutely no sense. He truly is the last man standing. There definitely is a God and you’ve got to appreciate his sense of humor. And you gotta love yourself some Jerry Lee, the Killer.

Not entirely true, Dion DiMucci is considered a rock pioneer -- still recording & performing and he was from the 50s. He's 82. Followed by Chubby Checker who still holds chart records started in 1958 is still recording & performing at 79. Now, Bobby Rydell, at 79, may not be considered a pioneer, but he started in 1958 & sold millions of records. He's a survivor. He is still performing to this day to sold-out audiences. By the way, these performers are in better health today than poor Jerry Lee who gets around real slow (at 86). He suffered a stroke in 2019.

Jerry Lee sure was a wild man. He had lots of cousins, and married one of them when she was just 13 years old. It has been pointed out here that Jimmy Lee Swaggart, the disgraced Assembly of God evangelist, was also a first cousin. So was the country singer Micky Gilley. I think the mother of one of them taught all three to play the piano.

It's funny you said that he "probably set his piano on fire" because legend has it that he DID set his piano on fire during a performance of Great Balls of Fire.

Love The Killer! Have all of his 8 tracks, albums and 45's. Being a '56 baby, I was raised on rock n roll!

I saw him (a few feet away) playing in a small teen dance club. He played some with his back to the piano. 🎹 He wasn't your typical musical entertainer in the 50s but he definitely put on a show & was one of the original "rock & rollers"! 😲 Elvis & Little Richard were also controversial! Ed Sullivan Show would NOT show Elvis from the waist down for a long time. 🤣My how things have changed & certainly not for the better!!!

🤣🤣Jerry Lee was a wild one but he played a piano effortlessly, really a master at that Piano too…He could play the classics just as good a Rock N Roll….❤️The joke was the Piano was made for him..

In 1957, there was NO AUTO-TUNE, NO GIMMICKS! A LIVE ONE-TAKE PERFOMANCE! I was 14 y/o, bought his original records & STILL HAVE THEM! If only you too had been a teenager then, MORE TRUE MUSICIANS, SINGERS, PERFORMERS, WRITERS,......than you can imagine or comprehend. FUN, DIVERSITY, ORINALITY & THE GOLDEN YEARS POPULAR MUSIC 🎶 🎵 👌

Now 2024 and it was 67 years ago, the year my parents married on the 7th Sept, had me just under a month before we lost Buddy, Big Bopper and young Richie Valens on the 3rd Feb 1959. I grew up with this music as my parents played it right up to before they died, dad in 2003 and mum in 2012. It would have been my dad's birthday next Wed 10th July. he was born in 1932, and would have been 92, mum in 1938. would have been 86.this year. I will be 66 in the New Year. Wish I had been a teen in the 50s instead of the 70s, music was way, way better.
