QUOTE(nky @ Apr 28 2006, 11:36 AM) Jerry Lee Lewis album finally set for September Thu Apr 27, 2006 4:04 AM BST NEW YORK (Billboard) - Rockabilly hellraiser Jerry Lee Lewis will release his first album in 11 years next September through Columbia Records. "Redemption," a star-studded effort featuring the likes of Eric Clapton, B.B. King, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young and Jimmy Page, was originally set for a February 2005 release via DreamWorks Nashville, which has since closed down. Although he still tours regularly, Lewis hasn't released a studio album since 1995's "Young Blood" (Sire), which failed to reach The Billboard 200. On Friday, he will perform "Great Balls of Fire" on CBS' "The Late Show With David Letterman." Reuters/Billboard Nancy  [right][snapback]270341[/snapback][/right] Phanstastic news, Nancy! Jerry Lee Lewis is really asome!! Thanks.

QUOTE(nky @ Apr 28 2006, 12:37 PM) Any comments?? Nancy  [right][snapback]270400[/snapback][/right] I love the title of his new record Would also like to add that it's the sheer POWER of music that draws you in because in a personal sense, he's terrifying and if I saw him on the street I would run  A true American original...hats off! And rock and Roll FOREVER w/ Jerry Lee It's quite rare to be able to enjoy the music of an artist for well over 50 years.

Jerry Lee still shakin' Friday, April 14, 2006 By IAN SPELLING SPECIAL TO THE RECORD www.bergen.com The Killer is still slayin' 'em. Jerry Lee Lewis will be the first to admit that Father Time is giving him a run for his money, but there's still a whole lotta shakin' goin' on every time he sits down at a piano before a roomful of fans or a roomful of fellow musicians. And Lewis is still doing both. His latest album, tentatively titled "The Pilgrim," features duets with Bruce Springsteen, Little Richard, Robbie Robertson and George Jones, as well as B.B. King, Jimmy Page and Eric Clapton on guitar, and Ringo Starr on drums. *Lewis will play Saturday at B.B. King Blues Club and Grill in Manhattan before touching down in Tennessee and Missouri, then heading to Europe for shows in Germany, France and England. (*this gig happened Saturday, April 15,2006) In a recent interview via e-mail, he recalled such fellow Sun Records legends as Carl Perkins, Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash and Elvis, talked about slowing down and mused about what's left to accomplish. Q. Carl, Johnny, Roy and Elvis are gone. You're still standing and you were the "bad boy." How strange is it that you're still here and that you're the keeper of the Sun flame? I'm the last man standing only by the grace of God alone, and I'm certainly thankful for that. It's a great honor and a privilege for me to find myself the keeper of the Sun flame, and to help keep the legacy of Carl, Johnny, Roy and Elvis alive. I'm planning to keep it up as long as I can. Q. What's the latest on "The Pilgrim"? I'm told that the title of the album has been changed; I think the new name that's being discussed is "Redemption." The album has come together beautifully. There are so many great songs on this album that I have a hard time choosing one, but I think my personal favorite is "Twilight" with Robbie Robertson. And the word is that the album will be released in September. Q. You don't go into any show with a set list, but what will we likely hear at B.B. King's? I always feel the audience out and then I play to that feeling. Usually I include "Whole Lotta Shakin' " and "Great Balls of Fire." From the album, I'll probably play two songs: "Before the Night Is Over," which I perform on the album with B.B., and I'm not sure about the other one right now. Q. You're 70 now. In your shows, what can't you do anymore and what are you surprised you still can do? Well, Ol' Father Time takes his toll on everybody, so I don't jump on the piano anymore, but I still kick and stomp pretty good, and my talent's still there and still strong. Q. What's the pride you take in knowing you've got two, maybe three generations of fans? I am proud that God has given me this talent and allowed me to continue to perform for so many years, but I'm particularly proud that I've been able to inspire several generations of musicians, that my older fans remain loyal and that I keep picking up younger ones. Q. Who or what music do you listen to these days? I listen to my own music -- I've recorded so many songs in all these years that I have to keep familiarizing myself with them to remember and to refine them. Q. If you were to introduce someone to the great music of the past by picking ONE song each by Elvis, Perkins, Orbison, Cash and Jerry Lee Lewis, what songs would you pick? Elvis -- "All Shook Up." Carl -- "Blue Suede Shoes." Roy -- "Pretty Woman." Cash -- "Walk the Line." Jerry Lee Lewis -- take your pick: "Whole Lotta Shakin'," "Great Balls of Fire" or "You Win Again." Q. What's still out there that you want to accomplish, musically, personally, both? Personally, I want to enjoy my life quietly here at my place with my daughter, Phoebe, and my dogs -- I sure don't want another wife. Musically, I just want to keep on recording and playing music. I don't plan to stop that! |
