My remembrance of Jerry Lee Lewis


Tonight I want to write about Jerry Lee Lewis, the wild man of rock ‘n’ roll. He died last Friday (Oct. 28), and by accounts I read he was the last of the rock 'n' roll pioneers. I got to see him perform live once in 1995, for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame's opening day concert in Cleveland. The photo you see is from that concert appearance. He always gave electric performances. He endured and lived through so many challenges that were often self-inflicted, yet I believe he came out on the other side. May he Rest In Peace.
