Well this may be wayyyy off track, but when the seminal rocker Jerry Lee Lewis started singing straight country music, I think he did an exceptional job.Saw an old clip of The Stones on Ed Sullivan show from the sixties the other night. Mick singing and squirming to "Ruby Tuesday" with Bill sort of bowing(!) stand up bass, Brian playing horrid recorder, Keith on piano (or celeste) and Charley stoically beating on drums. Verry scary!
