Mikefule The Future of Folk Clubs (157* d) RE: The Future of Folk Clubs 18 Nov 07


Nothing wrong with Jerry Lee Lewis, Buddy Holly, or Eddie Cochran.

I saw Jerry Lee Lewis perform a few years ago. Despite age, infirmity and various addictions, a great performer - although clearly perplexed and irritated by his UK audience still seeing him exclusively as a red hot rock and roller, when he has been playing country, blues, gospel and other "grown up" stuff for a quarter of a century.

I missed Buddy Holly by a few years, but did see The Crickets once. The new singer had a hard act to follow, but did his best.

I missed Eddie Cochran by a few years, too. A huge talent with a fine eye for detail when writing songs. Had he lived, he may have matured into one of the very best singer songwriters.
