| | They are examples of the rockabilly style, a mixture of country music and rock and roll, although Lewis’s forceful piano playing also showed traits of rhythm-and-blues music. | | | In 1956 Lewis traveled to Memphis, Tennessee, and signed with Sun Records, an influential southern label that launched the careers of rock singer Elvis Presley and country singer Johnny Cash. | | | Despite his tarnished reputation, and lack of play on the radio, Lewis performed in concerts continually, touring at times with such British bands as the Yardbirds and the Animals. |

| | Jerry Lee needs little introduction to anyone who’s ever listened to music, but his career and life have been so remarkable, brutal, excessive, glorious and degrading that it would be a wasted literary opportunity not to list the Killer’s most outrageous achievements here. | | | Jerry Lee Lewis, AKA the Killer, the last great king of Rock and Roll, the musical revolutionary, the drug-fuelled Louisiana hillbilly maniac with his pumping piano, in short, the next best thing to a deity made flesh, is scheduled to headline the second Ko Samui Music Festival. | | | Between songs Jerry Lee mumbles unintelligibly about his new album. |

| | Self-taught pianist and singer Jerry Lee Lewis is an original artist who, along with Elvis Presley&; personifies the popular cultural ethos of the 1950s when rock 'n' roll emerged and rose to popularity, but forged his own unique and uninhibited style within the genre. | | | His songs have made both the pop and country singles charts, and his rise to stardom from his humble beginnings is a tribute to his creativity, tenacity, and originality. | | | Lewis idolized Williams and learned his songs from the local radio broadcasts. |

| | JLL's work in the 1960s before these country recordings was not "in the wilderness." Some of the rock albums he did for Mercury Smah and Mercury represent some of the best rock and rockabilly recordings ever made, more mature musically, but wilder than things he did in the 1950. | | | Unlike Elvis who's estate clamped down on the bootleg and poor quaility music, Jerry Lee Lewis's bootlegs are all over the place and his great studio work is hard to find. | | | Formerly a rock 'n' roll hitmaker, his real success was found in country music and this 1968 album was the start of 14 years of hits. |

| | Jerry Lee Lewis was invited to appear on the ‘Around The Beatles’ TV special, but had to turn it down because of prior commitments. | | | But The Beatles were responsible for a revival of interest in rock ‘n’ roll and, because they mentioned their influences in interviews, lots of the rock ‘n’ roll stars such as Jerry Lee found that they were back in favour with the public again, which was probably why Jerry Lee changed his tune. | | | Almost a year later, when The Beatles were beginning to receive publicity in America, Jerry Lee was asked to comment on the group. |
