This guy Jacob has more talent than 98 percent of the artists who are on the Billboard HOT 100 right now!
thanks for the kind words. new music coming soon!
Exactly ! How many can even play an instrument or sing without auto tune? This is what you call talent!
@@JacobTolliverOfficial Wow, that's awesome! Looking forward to it! I'm a really big fan of yours, and of course, The Killer - Jerry Lee Lewis!
That's what I'm talking about. You are the man !
INSANE!!!
Such an honor to perform for Jerry Lee and celebrate his 85th Birthday! Thanks to everyone that tuned in
You are the best Jacob!!!
What an impressive performer you are, too. Easy to see why The Man loved you. 😀
When Jerry is happy, I am happy.
always good to see ya your hardware store videos are the best
I am so happy for you and all you are doing in your life!
Hey, you said you're from Portsmouth. I went to Eastern Junior High in the mid-70s with a sweet girl named Rhonda Tolliver. Relation, perhaps?
There's is only one Jerry Lee, but this guy comes mighty close. Superb.
100% agree Melodie.
His playing was awesome. Jerry Lee was great.
This guy is good but no one comes close to Jerry Lee no disrespect.
Phenomenal! 🏴
He could almost be a carbon copy he's that good... Hope he cuts some records for those of us who knew Jerry when he was young like this young gentlemen... Maybe some of the Great J.L.L rubbed off on him : time will tell... Thanks to those responsible for posting this video... It was a trip down memory lane that had no price...
There will never be another Jerry Lee Lewis.
But this guy comes close. You've got to keep this guy's music alive ! Fantastic!
That guy is a talent. He even looks like a young Jerry Lee.
IDENTICAL.
Wtf no he doesn't
So he's his cousins son, who's Jerry's wife, who is also his sister... so yea I see the resembles.
Hey, I want to hear him do Hadacol.
Looks like him? No don't think so.
Yessir, Jerry Lee could raise a little hell in his day!! Glad to see he enjoyed this. Nicely done Mr. Tolliver!! What an honor to get to play for him.
A piano knows it's been played when Jacob's done!! I half expected the keys to catch fire! Dang, he is absolutely incredible!! 👏👏👏
Jerry Lee was a f-cking monster on the piano . . . This guy is damn good . . . But Jerry Lee was a master on the piano . . . Make no mistake about that .
There are no words to describe how absolutely awesome this guy is in the way he pays tribute to the Killer...God bless you Jacob.
J adore .et les musiciens de son époque.
Quel pianiste
4:08 Jerry: „He is playing it like me“ - what a great compliment!
Best Compliment Ever!
I agree -he is playing it like jerry
he says - 'he's better than me'
'He's playing good piano'
That's what he said.
He plays so much like Jerry Lee and even better that he looks like a young Jerry Lee. Keep on Rocking Killer!
The Killer enjoyed this performance.
Yes he did that beautiful smile tells it all.
He LOVED it!
Formidable performance la relève est assurée
🇧🇷🇧🇷👏👏
That in and of itself is one hell of a compliment
I had to come listen to this today, as I just learned of Jerry Lee's passing. Rest in peace Killer. 💔
Hello pretty lady how are you doing today hope you have a wonderful day and your family
I love this video so entertaining I'm glad to see it again. How are you Wendy's ?
This guy is freakin amazing . Your the next Jerry lee Lewis . Please make a album
He is AMAZING! The smile on Jerry's face was priceless ❤️

I know, right?
I think that smile is because he was thinking he had nothing on me lol nice try kid
This is soooooo cool 😁😛😍
'Yes!.......
This guy is good. And even Jerry likes him.
But....I am more impressed by Kenneth Lovelace. He's been Jerry's guitarist and bandleader for almost 60 years.
Now THAT'S impressive. And still he is so humble.
Kenny Lovelace is the man!! Such an incredible person
@@JacobTolliverOfficial I know. 😀 Met him the times I met Jerry. He really is a humble and loveable person. And he really doesn't understand how great he is or the impact he has made.
I was just thinking I would like to have seen Kenny do a little something by himself for Jerry Lee...
@@Will_DiGiorgio I agree. And Kenny can actually sing too.....
Agree totally!
Spectacular ! The joy on Jerry’s face said it all and for a few minutes he was 60 years younger !
Der Maestro macht mit. 👍😀
His missus could have looked just a bit more happy during the actual performance. Jeez should looked miserable :(
@@CompleteCretin I was about to say the exact thing.And they had the camera on her for a hot min lol she has it throughout the whole video
Yes he loved it!
At first, neither of them smiled or tapped their hands. But, when the camera rolled, at least Jerry smiled and acted alive. His wife looked like a miserable Biotch the whole time.
Well done. Rip 😢jerry lee
How wonderful to see This KING still rocking"....
I think Jerry sees his younger self when watching this guy and he obviously enjoyed his performance. Awsome job!!
Wow! Great cover. Never seen or heard anyone come that close to Jerry Lee's own version. Fantastic!
What a fine tribute to Jerry on his 85th...so well played.
Can see the excitement in Jerry's eyes. His legacy lives on!
Jerry Lee looks fantastic!!!
It's nice to see Jerry enjoying seeing someone playing his songs so well. It seems that he is thinking: this boy reminds me of me
I remember when that first video of him playing the piano came out. I’m so glad that started his new career!
No doubt Jacob is one of the most talented musicians today! And he looks so nice.
Now I'm a great fan of him! From Japan.

Hello dear☺️🌹
This guy is an absolute SUPER STAR! We need to see way way more of him!!!!! and the guitarist too! love this. just love it. we need more happy music like this.
Oké 😢
Hi gorgeous how are you doing today hope you have a great day??
R.I.P Jerry Lee Lewis your a rock n roll legend and your legacy will never be forgotten
Omg. I saw him in Vegas . He is absolutely fantastic. I'd see him in a heartbeat again. The best.
From a 79 year old when Jerry was king and still is for sure this brought tears to my eyes and that Jacob can play !!!
Rock n roll Will never die thanks to Jerry Lee. And all the other old time rockers like Jacob. What a kid. 👍👍👍👍👍
Qg
@@jesseharvey2207 and what that means?
The killer rocks
Hes just awsome
Well said ! ;-)
Damn, that was fantastic.. Jerry lee was impressed for sure.. Hell of a Birthday show for him..
Jerry Lee Lewis , the biggest name in rock and rock , the most thrilling and exciting performer of all time . Thank you Jerry ! Happy Birthday to you,and I wish you many more whole lot of shaking going on .
I thought Jacob was Jerry Lee's grandson! They resemble each other very much. Happy Birthday Jerry Lee from me in southeastern Turkey.
Aint nobody on Earth can play like that lad with that style except the Legend sitting behind him.
I don't know how many times I've played this clip. Jacob's piano makes me so happy!
Music to pep you up👍🏼
He can play that piano really good . . . But the killer made the piano a legend . . . Jerry Lee could do things to a piano that just wasn't human . . . Jerry Lee was a handful in his younger days . . But Jerry Lee loves this kid and his playing . . . Jerry Lee sees a lot of himself in this kid .
@@tonydavis2672
Absolutely RIGHT...🎹 ♥️🎵
Jacob is AWESOME! What talent!
& Wht a real TREAT for Jerry's "birthday"!🎂 JERRY knew by watching Jacob that night his "legend" would definitely continue on ...🎹 👍🥰 🎵 💙
I do too !
You and me both! It puts me on a high!
How wonderful to have talent like jacobs to keep jerry lees legacy alive.
Just me or has anyone else watched this video > 10X and is now Addicted! Jacob is a Phenom~
I hv watched this video 50X n I am now addicted. Thank u Jacob.
LORD HAVE MERCY!!!!! HE JUST STOLE MY HEART..................AND MY BREATH!!!!! OMG!! WHAT A PERFORMANCE!!!
thanks for the kind words! glad you enjoyed it
@@JacobTolliverOfficial Jacob you are really a good performer! It must have been some pressure on you to impress Jerry! Keep up your very good work!👏👏👏👏👏
I have to say that I have watched this video probably 10 times in the last 2 days. I am a HUGE Jerry Lee fan and even got to meet him when I was a kid and we lived across the street from him in Collierville Tennessee. I have seen people imitate Jerry or try to imitate him. A lot of piano players can sing Jerry Lee's songs and they do OK. Nobody can emulate Jerry Lee's style on the piano , at least not until I saw Jacob! I really watched the playing more than listening to the singing. The singing was really good but the style of playing was spot on. I can tell when a piano player has formal training and is very strict in their method of playing. Jerry Lee was not formally trained and that allowed him to develop his own style and allow him to never play a song the exact same way every time he would play it. With all this being said. Jacob has a God given talent and let me stress that he is not a Jerry Lee Imitator. To say this would would diminish the hard work Jacob has put in to taking his own natural ability and mix it with a little of Jerry Lee's method of playing and create his own style. Obviously people see Jerry Lee when they see Jacob play, but if you look closely at Jacobs playing you can see he took some of Jerry Lee and mixed it with a lot of Jacob! Well done young man!
@@jerrydilliard1200 yes!! Very well put! Agree 100%!! He is truly amazing!
Check out Jason D Williams. He took his show from Atlanta to Las Vegas in the 70's. However, he's not as good as THIS Jason.
Jerry Lee will never be forgotten as long as Jacob Tolliver lives !!!
It thrills me to know real music is alive and being played as it is supposed to be. I love this nothing can come close to this sound in today's music.
Amen!
So very true .He is great
Right! And I probably shouldn't even agree to that statement on 'modern' music because I quit listening to what was being played as current about 20, 25-ish years ago and never bothered tuning in again. I just kept listening to what I knew. What I knew was good. Rest in peace, Killer. I'm sure you've made quite the stir amongst the angels since your arrival on that golden strand, and I wouldn't expect anything less.
Jerry Lee Lewis. Is last man standing.
As far as the million dollar quartet, yes, But we still have Don Everly, Dion and some others like Jerry Allison, though he was a drummer, he is the last of Buddy Holly and the crickets member.
This guy Jacob is the best I have never in my life heard anything better that was awesome and I agree he is better than anybody on the Billboard charts right now
@@aleksynicolas5910 thank you
@@aleksynicolas5910 I'm good. And you?
My God where did this kid come from the greatest performer out there today and he even impressed the Killer himself and Thats not easy in itself !!!!
More more more can't get enough like that I hope you Jacobe go real far you should with that kind of talent !!!! I can dig it !
Amazing talent!! Worthy successor to Jerry Lee Lewis.

I'd like to add....
Got tears in my eyes seeing how happy Jerry is here. He's been through lots of hardships in his life. Some self inflicted, some not.
To see him this happy in what is probably the end of his life makes me smile through my tears.
Yes, very moving to see that.
Do you know where America is mentioned in the Bible ??????? Shepherd's Chapel Network !!!!!!!
AWESOME Simply AWESOME!! l always loved Jerry Lees Lewis and his music. God bless you Jerry. See u in heaven before too long! Rest n Peace❤️🙏
Impossible to ever get tired of this music. Thank you Jacob!
Light up that ivory! Wow, fantastic !
He was fantastic. I was patting my leg listening to Jacob. And Jerry was smiling patting his leg. That was priceless. I love that song. Jerry had a boogie woogie birthday

Sensational,and old Jerry is rocking along in appreciation..love it.
So proud of this Ohio fellow. Awesome I'm an Ohio gal. Look at that beautiful smile on Jerry's face. I love that smile.
Hello, nice profile. It will be better if we can get to know each other properly.... That’s if you don’t mind
Hello pretty 💖
This guy is the REAL DEAL! He can play his ASS off. Even behind the Jerry Lee Lewis-style, he has something that draws you in and Makes you JUMP to your feet.
He can make that piano talk just like Jerry! Love it !
Très bons pianiste, ❤
Awesome, I loved that look between Jerry lee and Kenny as the guitar solo ended, that's L O V E, they've been playing together for over 50 years, what a great partnership......As Jerry said 'Kenny really knows how to Get it, get it and get it some more, musically speaking'....Congrats to The Killer and The World's number 1 Rock n Roll fiddle player Kenny, thanks for all the music you've given to us, much live and respect.
Wow, just wow. This young man is amazing. I could listen to him play all day!!! Love, love, loved it!!!!
Hello, it’s nice to meet someone here. I would love to know you more that’s of you don’t mind
Hello beautiful❤️🌹
Great 👍🏼 Perfect 👌🏻 Performance
I love this video so entertaining what a unique voice good memories. How are you Pat ?
I remember seeing Jacob's video at the hardware store, he rocks the piano. I'm old enough to cry when Chuck Berry died, others of my generation. Grew up with Jerry Lee. Am so glad to see youngsters inspired by the good music and carry on the tradition!!

Takes huge talent to tackle on an icone like Jerry Lee. It takes lots of guts to play Jerry Lee style in front of him. This guy Jacob, just nailed it. Absolutely nailed it. And it was great to see Jerry Lee witness it and obviously approve.
Good job 👍
Love this guy. Closest person to play like Jerry Lee Lewis I've heard. Keep it up !
Mickey Gilley was pretty close as well.. His cousin also from Ferriday
Happy 85th Birthday Jerry Lee! Always & forever a fan! Amazing tribute to a legend. Fantastic job Jacob. You can see the love in his eyes for you. Respect! 💕

I remember him saying in an interview years ago that he'd "be there to end it," and the interviewer took it as Jerry would be the "last rocker." And here he is today, still here. The last TRUE rocker!
Brilliant!! Glad to see the Killer is enjoying the performance!!
WOW!! A wonderful tribute to Jerry Lee!! 👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️🌟🤗😊😍Thank you so much Jacob! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Great talent Mr. Tolliver. A true honor to perform for Jerry Lee
That was sooooo good. What an honour for both of them, in Jerry's house no less. I kind of feel that's a tick of approval from Jerry, and passing the baton for a whole new generation to enjoy. I say this as my five year old is rocking out hard and jumping on the bed to it 🤣. Thank you, loved it 🥰
Jerry Lee is my lifetime musical hero, bought Killer Rocks On at the age of 15 and the love never faded. I met with Linda Gail at a concert and later had the honor to accompany Linda Gail and her two fantastic girls on tour in Denmark a couple of times with but never got to meet the grand old man.
Jacob Tolliver is amazing and what a pleasure to see JLL having a ball. Happy birthday!
I saw Jacob as Jerry Lee in "Million Dollar Quartet" and he really stole the show as the Killer! The whole cast was excellent, but I'll always remember his performance and how it was like seeing Jerry Lee at that young age! :D
Boy that guy sounds and plays just like Jerry Lee man never heard of anybody like him damn he's great
I Love watching this video!! I have to watch it everyday. Wow, Jacob you have so much talent and I love seeing Jerry Lee enjoying it!! RIP Killer!!
How did this guy go out in the audition round of American Idol? He’s so good he impressed Jerry himself
Because today theres a different mindset as to what good music really is, todays music if you want to call it that is nothing more than an exercise in vocal gymnastics and trying to see who can scream the loudest!
How can he be eliminated off that crapshow? It’s simple-he actually has talent. They go for looks and sob stories (“my grandma’s dog died a year ago today, and it really affected me, and inspired me to start writing crappy songs and singing off key”).
🌬🎹🎵🎶🎶🎵❤
AMERICAN IDOL is horse dodo.
As I recall they agreed he was awesome but they were concerned about versatility. I think that's bogus to eliminate someone because they *think* he can't be versatile. His performance earned him a spot. That kind of bogus is one of a number of reasons I don't watch the show anymore. They'll eliminate this guy and pass through someone because they have a sad or inspirational story. Horse hockey!!!
That was just awesome. Your one heck of a singer/piano player. I would listen to anything you sing and play.
Rest in Peace killer. Your music has inspired and thrilled millions of people all over the world. ❤️
What a pleasure to see Jerry smiling a lot !
I love your smile Jerry Lee! 🌞 Happy 85th Birthday

Jacob . I'm positive l saw that video and thought ...young upstart trying to out do the "Killler!" It is absolutely terrific to see you at the party! Without letting the cat out of the bag your killing the killer! And he's enjoying every second ! I could see in Jerry Lee' s eyes he was looking in a mirror of himself hammering those keys into oblivion! No better tribute could be made. And that's something to share with your grandchildren in years to come ! Thankyou .
Jerry is singing along word for word ....................... rock n roll never dies !!!!
Hot Damn that was good.
HELL YEAH
The best , Jerry Lee, Hot goed it was, greets CJ from Holland
Jacob first time ive ever heard your name!!!!!! Just blew my mind absolutely fantastic.
Jacob Tolliver looks A LOT the young Jerry Lee Lewis!
He seems he could be his son!
My Dad was from Portsmouth, OH. Just saw Jacob open up for Gladys Knight! Wow, he's phenominal!
I love this song nice memories still watching. How are you Nancy ?
Quelle classe (José de France fan de Jerry Lee Lewis)
Yee Ooow - He makes the music come back alive & better than ever. Fantastic!!!!!!
If I did not know better it would seem as though Jacob is a son of Jerry Lee, and his playing the piano has to go without words, none needed!! Jerry Lee sure approved!!
Jerry got around ,maybe he is his son
He's not. Stop making shit up
It's good to see that there are still people from the new generation who want to go beyond the box and play with the natural sound of rock and roll. Keep it up !
Just discovered this, wow, the kid is amazing. Long live J & J!
Someone needed to call the fire department to put out that blazing piano! Smoking performance.
great job killers !!!!!!!!!!
Tears in my eyes God bless America for this music 🎶 RIP Jerry Lee Lewis big Mexican fan here.
Haaaaa wicked mate seriously, Jerry Lee loved it thought he was gona get up
and play with u at one point, amazing thank you
Jacob is pretty incredible... After Covid I'd like to see him play.
Crazy to think that I was lucky enough to be in that room and sit at that piano!
