Killer double shot with Jerry Lee Lewis, Linda Gail Lewis, Cash covers and more!


The Lewis family proves once again why they are such a force to be reckoned with as we hear a Killer double-shot from Jerry Lee and a rockin' tune from his sister, Linda Gail.  The only thing holding them back is there are only 88 keys on the piano and they rock every one of them!  We hear a couple of Cash covers from Reverend Horton Heat and Dion, plus some rockers from Stray Cats, Fats Domino, Charlie Gracie, Blue Plate Specials, Joe Clay covering Jack White and so much more!!
