You should play this song from when he was in his 20s and he would be standing on the piano and playing. He was one crazy entertainer when he was young.

I actually saw him in a concert in West Palm Beach, FL as a kid (about 1970). He was all over the piano and piano seat.

@LadyIarConnacht Год назад

They made a movie about him and Dennis Quaid did a great job portraying Jerry Lee. There is a scene from that movie where they recreated the infamous night that Jerry Lee burned down the piano while playing it because he was mad he had to go on before Chuck Berry. You can find it on RU-vid or watch the whole movie - it's called Great Balls of Fire.

@Howdyall Год назад

@@kerethmakura4502 They didn't call him "The Killer" for no reason. 😄

@daleb1279 Год назад

Jerry Lee is one of the original rock and rollers. Elvis, Johnny Cash, Brenda Lee, Patsy Cline, Wanda Jackson and Jerry Lee were among those who all toured together travelling in car caravans for shows. Imagine that amount of talent just driving down the road together on some night in the 1950s in Tennessee.

@arthurchadwell9267 Год назад

And sadly, so many of them dying in car and plane crashes...

@scubaspookryu Год назад

I know you thought that was a fired up performance, but that is the most reserved performance of that song I have ever seen him perform. Slower tempo and he didn't even kick the piano bench out of his way so he could really get down. A truly "spirited" performer!

@arthurchadwell9267 Год назад

The Killer!

Exactly - he must have been on valium for this performance. The video is obscured so it's hard to tell, but it definitely looks like a very mature Killer - if such a thing is possible.

Jerry Lee Lewis was one of the more flamboyant & wilder rock & roll singers of the time in the 50's-60's. He was nicknamed "The Killer". His piano playing & showmanship were legendary. He had a lot of hits such as "Breathless", "Wild One", "High School Confidential", "What'd I Say", "Another Place, Another Time" etc. His career faltered for a time when he married his 13-year-old cousin.

@ContrarianCorner Год назад

So true. Little Richard and Lewis were the first to bring the wild, charismatic antics of southern preachers to the Rock 'n' Roll stage, and others took it from there. Jerry Lee Lewis was the original Bad Boy of rock.

@jeffdetmer4681 Год назад

Hey Britt. It's story time lol. Once upon a time there were 3 young boys. They were cousins. All 3 learned piano. One was named Jerry Lee Lewis who went on to become one of the biggest stars of a genre that morphed from rockabilly to rock n roll. The 2nd was named Mickey Gilley. He became one of the biggest stars in Country Music. He also owned a bar/club in Texas that was so big they had rodeos in it. The 3rd was named Jimmy Swaggart. He went on to become a televangelist who used music to preach to his congregation. Jerry has been a wild child his whole life. He would tear up a piano. He played with his feet. He played on his knees with his back to the piano. He supposedly even set a piano on fire on stage one night, and continued playing it. Find some older vids of his live performances. It makes this look very tame.

@Rebelrocker69 Год назад

You forgot the fourth cousin who he married when she was 13. But that doesn't take away from his legendary skill and talent. ETA corrected the cousin's age from 14 to 13. My bad.

@mkelly1347 Год назад

And if you listen to all 3 cousins playing the piano, it's ALL the same. I believe an aunt taught them all on the same piano. So it's got that old school church right hand to all their music.

Jerry Lee Lewis was known as "The Killer". During a tour of Britain it emerged that his wife was his 13 year old cousin! The tour was cancelled shortly after. That was his 3rd marriage, at the ripe old age of 22.

@stevedavis5704 Год назад

He always had a bad boy image (and attitude) especially at concerts. The story is told that he was at a concert and expected to play last as a show of top billing. They let someone else have the top spot and put him second to last. He was told the other guy was a better performer and that was why he got top spot. Jerry went out played his heart out and had the crowd screaming. He played this song last and as he finished he set the piano on fire. As he walked back stage past all the stunned people, he looked the theater manager and the other performer in the face and said “Top that.” That was one of my moms favorite stories about Jerry and this song.

@TranslateToEnglish Год назад

It actually did happen. It was at the Paramount Theater in Brooklyn New York. The show also featured Buddy Holly and the Crickets, the Chantels and Chuck Berry. Alan Freed produced the show and decided that Chuck Berry, being the bigger star at the time, would close the show. Jerry Lee, not to be outdone set his piano on fire at the conclusion of his performance, walked offstage and told Chuck as he passed him, “Top That!”

@roberthudson1959 Год назад

@@TranslateToEnglish You have Disneyfied the story. Lewis said, "Top that, n----r." Losing the closing spot to another white performer would have been bad enough. He was incensed to lose the spot to a person of color.

@amandaburnett2453 Год назад

That was true he went on before Chuck Berry and blew the roof off. Cops were called.

@mdm4504 Год назад

The world got back in balance a few years later at the T.A.M.I. show when the promoter had the Rolling Stones head the bill after James Brown because they had a new record out. James Brown did an over-the-top performance, dancing till he dropped, getting back up, collapsing, carried off the stage coming back on and continuing. Impossible to top that. As he walked off stage the told Mick Jagger "Welcome to America"

@arthurchadwell9267 Год назад

I think it was Chuck Berry they bumped him for. Of course, Chuck was magic too!

@totalityofscripture1001 Год назад

If you watch Mickey Gilley “Don’t all the girls get prettier at closing time” you can see how they are literally cousins. Their other cousin is the Preacher Jimmy Swaggart as well. All 3 cousins sing and all 3 play piano.

@darrinlindsey Год назад

Jerry loved to hammer on those piano keys. He was definitely one of the best entertainers of his time. I saw him at a County Fair, in 2006. He was 71 years old, and still hammering on the keys like ever, with his hands and his feet. He got national attention when he was 22 years old, and married his 13 year old cousin.

@cbobwhite5768 Год назад

I saw Jerry Lee, when I was a kid. It was in a backwoods joint, that was cooled by a huge fan, in the back wall, at the back of the stage. He was playing the piano and singing. He jumped up, kicked the bench back and threw his hands back , behind his head. One of his hands hit the fan blades and he got a pretty bad cut. He had been imbibing a little and was feeling no pain. He wrapped a rag around his hand, had another drink and finished his show. The owner took him to town, to get stitched up. Those were the days.

@Paladin70 Год назад

One of the original wild men of rock and roll. Partied hard, married his 13 year old cousin (which pretty much canceled his career for a time and relegated him to playing small venues and honky tonks, but he clawed his way back.) Always gave 150% and left his show dripping with sweat. That vocal inflection you love was a signature of his. Check him out on Whole Lotta Shakin’ Going On.

I saw Jerry Lee in the 80s, nearly as wild still as he was in the 50s and early 60s. At one point- I could never say if it was preplanned or totally organic- a young man jumped up on one end of the stage and started dancing his heart out. Jerry Lee looked totally surprised, but he just kept playing that piano and watching the kid do his thing at the far end of the stage. He was smiling the whole way. The entertainers of that early age of Rock N Roll remain unmatched in so many ways. Have you reacted to any Fats Domino yet?

@arthurchadwell9267 Год назад

Yes! Loved Fats too! "I'm walking to New Orleans", "I'm Gonna Be A Wheel Someday"... Magic.

@angelomaurizio1668 Год назад

Known as "The Killer" Jerry Lee Lewis was one of the big artists of Rock n Roll history. Some argue he was the KIng of Rock n Roll. He started out as a country western singer in the mid 50s and toured all over the South with artists like George Jones, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins and some guy named Elvis. If you like Jerry Lee Lewis, you really should check out Little Richard, he was like the R&B side of Jerry Lewis in the 50s. Fats Domino (my favorite) is another one of the founding fathers of Rock n Roll that uses the piano religiously as Lewis and Richard.

@mikejenkins1972 Год назад

Jerry Lee played that song for about 60 years. ;) Sadly he passed away last year, aged 85, just a few days after being inducted into the Country Music Hall of fame. "Great balls of fire" was offered to his fellow Carl Perkins, but he refused. For Jerry Lee it became his signature song! :)

@johnstudinski Год назад

This story happened when Chuck Berry was to close a show, even though Jerry Lee was more successful at the time: Lewis took to the stage and sang some of his signature songs, including “A Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On” before taking it all to the next level. The crowd was howling with excitement, police had to keep them at bay and stop them from climbing on stage. The thrill and adrenaline only fueled Lewis to keep going and he jumped right into “Great Balls of Fire.” Just a verse in, he kicked the stool back from the piano, doused the open piano with some gasoline he had in a Coke bottle, and threw a match into the whole mess before continuing to sing his heart out. Flames licking at the piano’s lid, Lewis finished his song to the insane roar of the audience and walked off stage before issuing one simple statement to Berry: “I want to see you follow that, Chuck.” After this incident, no one wanted to follow Jerry Lee Lewis on any show.

@cliveglover5343 Год назад

@firedoc5 Год назад

Jerry Lee, country singer Mickey Gilley, and evangelist Jimmy Swaggert are all cousins. Their piano playing is very similar due to the same aunt taught them, plus Jerry Lee also picked up piano playing from the mostly black honky-tonks and showed the others how to play it. When driving through Ferriday, LA where he is from, and you'll see "Jerry Lee Lewis St."

JERRY WENT TO VISIT ELVIS ONE TIME AT GRACELAND; THEY SIT AROUND TALKING AND PLAYED THE PIANO SOME. WHEN JERRY LEFT ELVIS TOLD SOME OF HIS GUYS THAT JERRY WAS A GENIUS ON THE PIANO. SOME PEOPLE ARE JUST GIFTED WITH THAT TALENT. JERRYS NICKNAME WAS "THE KILLER".

This was one of the original songs that were called “devils music” in 1957. Pull up and watch old video of Jerry Lee Louis

You should check out the Godmother of rock & roll, Sister Rosetta Tharpe. She was before anyone else. Strange things happening, 1944. Didn’t it rain is another good one.
