Happy birthday to Jerry Lee Louis. Born in Ferriday Louisiana today in 1935. One of the wild men of early rock and roll, the " Killer", is also considered one of the most influential pianist of our time.                                                              These days, what he did seems tame, but in the 1950s, he shocked people. Pounding on his piano, setting it on fire, jumping on it, and playing standing on his head. Great early rock and roll music.                                                            After being married six times, with three or four of his wives passing away under mysterious circumstances, the Killer has finally slowed down a little. The man was definitely off his chain.   Happy Birthday Killer.                                      

I remember seeing the "Killer" in concert at Six Flags in STL back in the mid 70's.  Even as a kid I knew he put on a hell of a show.
