Read more on this video, which borrows heavily from Tony Palmer's "All you need is love."

The epic depiction of the Killer on his Golgotha, here:  - orig. posted 11/6/10 - updated 1.6.19.

Before Mike Judge made them cartoons, this documentary explored the life of Jerry Lee Lewis by the PEOPLE who knew him best: little sister Linda Gail Lewis(i produced her first solo record in 15 years, International Affair 1991), and unbowed, relentlessly-crucified Myra Lewis Williams​, the first Rock 'n' Roll girl, who not unlike Tracy Lords, nearly annihilated the entire music industry, innocently laying waste to the Killer's career for years - and the only reason Jerry Lee is alive.

Watch Jerry Lee blowing through the fucked-up, lean days of disfavor, in an exhibition of ultimate unmuddied, undiluted, undiminished powers.

Read something NEW!

Can you tell more of Charlotte Bumpus?

(2) Jerry started dating her in 1972 when she was 15.

(3) He used to brag that she could "suck the chrome off a car fender"

musician, producer of Linda Gail Lewis, retired Jerry Lee Lewis audience member, after realizing i could never beat Gary Skala, or PC. recently kicked out of some terrible Jerry Lee Facebook group by someone not qualified to shine JLLs shoes, much less run a page. i once camped out on a roof in memphis with a photog from The National Enquirer, and watched Jerry and Kerrie's backyard wedding at the McCarver house. I popped my tabloid cherry, said Frankie Jean, by obtaining and selling the original Jerry Lee mugshot and accompanying incident report from the night Jerry Lee tried to "assassinate" Elvis, and was arrested. Frankie Jean said, "I'm so proud of you. Linda Gail and I have been doing that for years." Lastly, I was front row at Fats and Friends, without a doubt, the greatest show I've ever seen from the front row. P.S. I was also karate chopped by the Killer, New Year's Eve 198?, after he saw my girlfriend and said, "Git rid of him, and we'll make love." oh, yeah, I played Buddy Holly in the worst movie of all time, GBOF. Jerry came to the set one night, and when Adam, the director, introduced me to the stand-in for Killer's best friend, he said, "Oh, Killer, I know Killer." Then he took the meerschaum out of the side of his face, really looked at me in costume, and said, "Son, you look more like Buddy Holly, than Buddy Holly ever did!"

Jason D. Williams didn't want to pursue new DNA test to prove Jerry Lee Lewis is his father



Jason D. Williams didn't want to pursue new DNA test to prove Jerry Lee Lewis is his father . Jason D. Williams is happy to let rumors be rumors. The rockabilly musician has long been rumored to be the illegitimate child of music legend Jerry Lee Lewis.

Everyone seems to like Charlotte though, even Kay Martin (who seems to hate all of Jerry's other ex's with the exception of Myra) & Kerrie (who made Charlotte welcome at Jerry's birthday concerts).

Jerry Lee Lewis duets with Mack Vickery on Mack's Rockin' My Life Away with James Burton and Bob Moore - Merle Kilgore sings Mack Vickery's When You Get on the Whiskey (Let Somebody Else Drive)



Kenny Lovelace, Me, and James Burton, backstage at HOB NOLA - Mack said it was about playing touch football with elvis


Jerry Lee Lewis duets with Mack Vickery on Mack's Rockin' My Life Away featuring legends James Burton and Bob Moore (Nashville Now 1984)



Mack was mine and the Killer's favorite songwriter (Rockin' My Life Away, nuff said?), and i had the opportunity to spend a while with him at Jerry Lee's birthday party at the ranch in Nesbit, 1990, while recording Linda Gail Lewis

Weird trivia:
i asked him what the song was about, and you'll never believe what he told me.
find the answer under the video in the comment section


Thank you for posting this. My husband would have been 78 years old today. He and Mack were best friends and he worked for years as Jerry's road manager.


not Cecil Harrelson? was it JW? i  produced a Linda Gail record where I met him at one of Jerry Lee's birthday parties in Nesbit.  i miss him too.


Mack wrote this..but he can't follow the killer!!!


Admirez les rois du vrai rock n'roll !

Merle Kilgore sings his and Mack Vickery's When You Get on the Whiskey (Let Somebody Else Drive) with The Bama Band, Hee Haw, 1985





Maybe you've heard John Anderson's version? 

It says in this book excerpt that President Reagan gave him a signed letter of appreciation for this song, because of Nancy's 'Just Say No' drug movement.  (it didn't work though, because when i met him, i think he could hear the grass grow.)

Lyrics
I heard it on the radio and six o' clock news
Said, "You'd better not drive when you get on the booze"
The sheriff was on TV an a shakin' his hand
Said, 'We're really crackin' down you better understand'
When you get on to whiskey
(When you get on to whiskey)
When you get on to whiskey
(When you get on to whiskey)
When you get on to whiskey
Let somebody else drive
Started drinkin' on Friday and by Saturday night
They had be blowin' through a tube charged with DUI
Cuffed and booked and thrown in a cell
I was tryin' to sober up and tell him myself
When you get on to whiskey
(When you get on to whiskey)
When you get on to whiskey
(When you get on to whiskey)
When you get on to whiskey
Just let somebody else drive
Forty eight hours is a long is a long time to kill
In a room full of drunks surrounded with steel
Hell's all the serve in a Metro Bar
So don't be drinkin' when your drivin' your car
When you get on to whiskey
(When you get on to whiskey)
When you get on to whiskey
(When you get on to whiskey)
When you get on to whiskey
Let somebody else drive
When you get on to whiskey
(When you get on to whiskey)
When you get on to whiskey
(When you get on to whiskey)
When you get on to whiskey
Let somebody else drive
When you get on to whiskey
(When you get on to whiskey)
When you get on to whiskey
(When you get on to whiskey)

RINGO STARR CHIPS MOMAN SEND Pete Drake Video Message PLUS Moman Pickets Memphis Commercial Appeal Over Ringo Defamation [1987]





SelcolDrumOM194e2

this little gem was found unmarked by a wonderful Memphis videographer, and lo and behold, through persistent viewing through reams of b-roll, i discovered this never-before-seen personal video message from Ringo Starr and Chips Moman to Pete Drake, wishing him the best for an unnamed award circa 1987. [Ringo and Chips were in Memphis preparing to record Ringo's Memphis album, which would soon be aborted and end in legal problems.]

 

the 'Pete' Ringo refers to, regarding finding country tapes in his car, is indeed, Pete Drake, who was the Nashville record producer responsible for convincing Ringo to cut a country record in Nashville with Nashville players, all on the basis of his coincidental discovery of Ringo's country music collection, discovered while picking him up at the airport. [their record became Beaucoup of Blues, winning more than a few top 10s, as well as critical accolades.]
