Friday Classics: Whole Lotta Shakin

I love it when I come across some great THEN AND NOW videos.

Here's Jerry Lee Lewis covering Whole Lotta Shakin Going On back in 1957.  Super high energy.

 

And here's ol' Jerry Lee in 2004.   A little less energy ... but a super-star back-up crew!  And nobody can do keyboard like Jerry Lee!

CJ:

I remember when he was the Britney Spears of his day. Talk about the up's and down's he has experience. in his career (he still was very talented). I like this version with Kid Rock, Keith Richards and Willie Nelson better than when he did it solo.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

Cheryl, I saw Jerry Lee in concert in 2006.  He walked across the stage like an old man - but once he sat down at the piano,  he was The Killer again - darn near as good as ever.

I just saw the Alley Cats in concert last night. There are now 16 'cats', but we had two of the originals, Mando and Royce the Voice! It's amazing how old musicians never die - they just get new parts. Jerry Lee was quite a character in his day.

Jerry Lee will always be a "killer".  I loved the memory trip and I also love going to youtube and finding the old clips of the stars.  Go see Dean Martin sometime.  He was SO handsome!!
