The Killer in full voice, before the booze, pills and heart attack took their toll. Masterful.

@haja009 You are right.The look of a child molesting inbred hick. That is rare, thank God.

Personally, I much prefer listening to Jerry Lee's country than his rock 'n roll.
His country singing was awesome during the golden years of his country period, the late 1960s. he had several country hits during that era, and this is my favorite (the 45 rpm version.)
By the way, at 2:26 he makes an expression that really reminds me of his first cousin, televangelist Jimmy Lee Swaggart, who also plays piano Jerry Lee-like (but not as well.)

My brother & I would sing along with Jerry Lee while we enjoyed some Jack Daniels. My brother has passed on, but this brings back precious memories!

That "Look" in Jerry's eyes is one of sincere, DEEP pain & sadness, a bit of regret, and a whole lot of "wish I would have's."

Written by Mickey Newbury.

Blue notes and improvisation all over the place. Jerry Lee knows how to keep it fresh.

Jerry was really a great entertainer! My favourite since -69! But now he lost about 80% of his ability! Sorry to admit it. Chuck Berry has deliverd shit concerts for many,many years not even bothering to tune his guitar. He just wants his stack of US and leave exactly after 59min and 59 sec! Sad end to such a fantastic artist and songwriter! He wrote the best songs ever in RocknRoll!
He has this look in his eyes when he sings, like he knows something the rest of us don't! No performer today has that, he's one of a kind.

A totally awesome rendition! The Killer rocks on. No one sings any song like Jerry Lee.
