JERRY LEE LEWIS will be 75 on September 29. He is a surviver, a rock-a-billy heroe, a man who once climb the gate of 'Graceland' ( with a revolver) and screamed: 'I am the king of Rock 'n Roll!'.
He serves as well gospel, blues and country, just the way he poured Jack Daniel's in to his piano, before he threw his zippo in it.
Recently, he recorded the cd ' mean Old Man ', in which he sings duets with, Eric Clapton, Sheryl Crow, John Fogerty, Willie Nelson, Kris Kristofferson, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ron Wood.
Country, the bottle, the resurrection Jerry Lee lost two sons but got on his feet again. In 1968, he made his comeback with country music. 15 years, he was heavily on the bottle, untill his stomach tore in 1981. That same year, he co-starred with Johnny Cash and Carl Perkins just one more time live as the survivors. RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR........ ramblin wayn

3 'MARYLINS' BY TOINE van MEGEN, (1960) EYGELSHOVEN, NETHERLANDS:
Toine van Megen (1960) was born in Eygelshoven in the Netherlands . He did artschool for three years, is also a songwriter, performed with band and sometimes on his own. Currently he teaches and helps eldery people to discover their artistic abilities.
The Marilynworks have a background of the Park in Maastricht, and one known valley near the Savelsbos, all in the neighbourhood of the city of Maastricht, Netherlands There are also abstract& and figurative works. There is a lot of variation in his works which are still in progress. The paintings shown here are older works, made in the nineties.
Toine made the 'Marylins' for selling.
Because the major influence of Marylin Monroe on the Rock ' Roll scene, I think it's a must to show his paintings on this site.

When a man receives presents from another, he may sing this song, remembering that all things come through the power of Tirawa, and asking of the Father, while giving thanks, a renewal of his gifts-long life, good health, and plenty in the fields. The man who receives prays for a blessing on the man who gives. Thus thanks he the giver. Well is it to give to the poor and to the helpless, for they hedded of the Father. Their prayers will be heard, and more surely than those of all others will their blessings be fullfilled upon the giver. Worth more than all the prayers of the prosperous and strong are the thankfull prayers of the feeble. the aged, and the poor.
Kisaka Song of the Thanksgiving
Nawa Atius, Now, O Father, Iri ta-titska, Our thanks be unto thee, Iri asuta hawa, Our thanks! Renew our plenty! Iri rurahe! OUr Thanks! Renew these thy gifts to us!
