It's Record Store Day, and I was lucky enough to score tickets to see Jerry Lee Lewis live at Jack White's Third Man Records. The show is being recorded for a live album, and the backing band includes Steve Cropper and Jim Keltner, along with Jack Lawrence from the Dead Weather and Raconteurs on the bass guitar. I can't tell you how excited I am, as Jerry Lee is one of my all-time musical heroes. Here's a song from my favorite live record, recorded at the Star Club in Hamburg in 1964, and featuring the Nashville Teens laying it down behind him.
