Jerry Lee is first cousins with Jimmy Swaggart and Mickey GIlley. Jerry knows the gospel, and all he has to do is call his cousin if he has any doubts about where he will spend eternity.
His drummer told me they were all on a bus one night, or early in the morning, coming home from a gig and one of the guys said he didn’t believe in God. Jerry Lee kicked him off the bus and drove off, leaving the guy standing on the side of the road.
How I knew the drummer, I won’t say his name, is I was playing a gig on New Years Eve in Memphis and needed a drummer. The bass player called him. He was one colorful character.
If he wats to call Jimmy, that’s a looooong distance call. Jimmy passed away a few years ago.
