would join Sun Records and launch hit records with “Crazy Arms,” “Whole
Lotta Shakin,’”, and “Great Balls of Fire.” Jerry Lee, along with his
friends, Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley and Carl Perkins would become known

Recording Academy’s Lifetime Achievement Award and countless other
honors. Rolling Stone has named him in the top 25 Greatest Artists of

and shows no signs of stopping, touring around the globe still today.
