That's right folks, Jerry Lee Lewis came into this world 73 years ago today. The poor boy from eastern Louisiana, who has released countless albums and toured the world constantly, made a name for himself as he pioneered a sound we call Rockabilly. Along the way he played with and behind the likes of Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins and influenced rock-n-roll piano players such as Elton John, Billy Joel, and Ben Folds. Happy Birthday Jerry!
