Jerry Lee Lewis: Lost and Found ReviewJoe Bonomo's new book "Jerry Lee Lewis - Lost and Found" is a wonderful book. As you would expect from a Professor who teaches English, it is a scholarly work that has been incredibly well researched. It is by far the best book ever on the life and music of Jerry Lee Lewis.
Back in 1962 I was just a teenager when I met Jerry Lee Lewis for the first time. That meeting changed my life forever.
This book is a personal odyssey that started over 25 years ago when the author was himself a teenager hearing Jerry Lee Lewis for the first time. It is obvious to me that discovering Jerry Lee Lewis changed Joe Bonomo's life too.
Even today, 53 years after Jerry made his first recordings, there are still teenagers who discover Jerry Lee Lewis by chance and then become avid fans who want to read all the old newspaper stories and buy and play every record Jerry ever made.
Joe Bonomo has been on that odyssey of discovery and he documents Jerry's life and times through his music, through extracts from a plethora of books and articles, and above all from interviews with people who knew Jerry Lee Lewis personally.
Just as Jerry is "The Last Man Standing" from the famous "Million Dollar Quartet" of Carl Perkins, Elvis and Johnny Cash - some of those interviewed, like famed Memphis musician, Jim Dickinson and Sun Records owner, Shelby Singleton, have died recently. This book is therefore already a historical document.
The book's central theme is the "Live At the Star Club" album Jerry cut in Germany back in 1964. Many rate this LP as the best live album of all time. Joe Bonomo reveals many new facts about this album by interviewing the record's producer, Siggi Loch, and some of the musicians who either played on or attended the session.
The book plainly demonstrates that, alone amongst all the old rock'n'rollers, Jerry has never stopped performing what many have described as "The Greatest Live Show On Earth".
As someone who has been fortunate enough to get to know Jerry quite well, to have been a guest in his home, flown in his private plane, attended recording sessions and seen hundreds of shows - I am pleased to report that I cannot fault the accuracy of this book. In fact, the way the acknowledgements are laid out, the detailing of all the source material and the perfect indexing are themselves worthy of study by other authors.
Congratulations Joe, this book is a work of art.
