Tony, I backed Jerry Lee in 1962 at Brocks in Lexington, Kentucky. He looked like death warmed over then. What staying power! Of course, I ain't so pretty pretty now, either. Sometimes, it's not the years, it's the mileage....

Russ, my band back in Oklahoma opened a show/dance for him in about 65. After he took the stage he proceeded to have a fit and tear up the piano because it was "out of tune". The crowd booed him off the stage, and we had to go back on and play the dance portion.
