  • A mix of the original Keep On Rockin' film and Story of Rock and Roll dvd. Each version was chopped up to insert audience footage. Fortunately the cuts between the two were in different sections so I was able to regain the camera angle focused on Jerry for a more enjoyable experience. The second half is a side by side displaying the alternate angles used.

      Do you know something about him? For example when he was born, when he passed away, why he left Jerry in 1969 and things like that? It will help so much, because internet and the world keep missing these infos.
      Thank you so much for your response.

    For those claiming there are too many Elvis Presley songs (a) Jerry went to see Elvis in Las Vegas days beforehand, so no doubt had Elvis on his mind, (b) He couldn't do the usual Richard/Berry songs as he shared the bill with them, (c) Only 'Don't Be Cruel' and 'Jailhouse Rock' are truly Elvis songs: 'Hound Dog' was by Big Mama Thornton, 'Mystery Train' was by Junior Parker, and Jerry completely rewrote the verses for his version of 'Mean Woman Blues' (something which topped the charts in the UK as the flip-side of 'Great Balls of Fire').
