Topic: Whole Lotta Celebratin' Goin' On: 85 Years of the Killer

Jerry Lee Lewis didn' played, but it's interesting even though :

I wonder if the did covid-19 tests to everyone in the living room of Jerry's home.

No one knows for sure if, at 85, Jerry will recover (had a stroke many months ago) to be able to play live again, since he right hand was still not good, but reports suggests he recover enough to play a new album that would be coming.

History will remember him as a dirty old man for marrying his 13yr old child cousin which rightfully pretty much killed his career at the time, though they were apparently happily married it's still pretty gross.

I wouldn't wish covid on anyone though, well, save the odd real killer..

His personal life it's not a example, like the personal life of a lot of rock ''N" roll stars.
But about marry the 13 old, that wasn't unusual thing back then where Jerry grown up, Ferriday Loisiana, old style religious culture patriarchal. I'm not saying that this, culture, make anything right. But we need to try to split the art/music, from personal life.
If we would judge Beethoven only from the perspectve of his personal life...

Well, unlike some of you, I'm only just old enough to remember him.  Little Richard was another, perhaps a tad later. But this Covid malarky won't go away quietly  . . . . .

I'm playing all the right notes but not necessarily in the right order
