- James Burton on backing guitar. Best sound recording of any live recording of JLL. This recording is the Killer at his best in my opinion.
Tihis is the real Jerry
this is the one to buy. This is Jerry at his best, telling it just like it is.
Raw, Rough and Real! Jerry Lee Unbridled!
His has been a life and career built upon excesses that no fiction writer would attempt to portray. Is there anything new that can be said about Jerry Lee Lewis?
Probably not. He has both abused and redeemed himself so many times over that it tends to boggle ones mind. That he has lived this long is at least a minor miracle! And through it all he has done it his way. (Much more so than Sinatra who usurped the term. )
The drama of his life has the unfortunate tendency of overshadowing the music he has made. At his best he is real, soulful and artistic. He can grab your emotions as few others. His music, not unlike the best of Ray Charles, can drain the listener and literally stand you up off your seat. Like Charles, you know at once that his songs come from the the inside out. They are from personal experience not a songwriters pen.
These are not studio recordings, but live unexpurgated performances. Better than a studio! Not as technically superior perhaps but alive with feeling and emotion. It's time to put aside the titillating aspects of the "Killers" life and simply recognize him for what he is. Simply the best Honky-Tonk artist ever!.
Honky Tonkin' Killer Tearing It Up!!!
The Killer shines in this friendly beer swillin' environment and his music rises to the occasion. This cd is a recording, 4 albums worth (previously released on 3 separate albums w/10 extra cuts to boot!) of "The Greatest Entertainer In The World" Jerry Lee Lewis Live at the Palomino Honky Tonk. This is great honky tonkin' piana playin' by one of Rock's legendary performers. And the back up band consisting of James Burton of 'gitar and Kenny Lovelace on fiddle ain't to shabby 'neither! A great album and value - pure Americana.
A+
Though drunk through most of it, he still makes it sound great. This double CD captures over 40 tracks of Lewis's live performances.
