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.
