Il était, selon le titre inspiré de son album de duos de 2006, le “dernier homme debout” (“Last Man Standing”) du rock ‘n’ roll. Avec la disparition de #Jerry_Lee_Lewis, et même si vivent encore quelques interprètes historiques, au premier rang desquels figure Wanda Jackson, c’est le dernier pionnier du genre qui a révolutionné, au milieu des années 1950, le monde des musiques populaires qui vient de s’en aller.

If #Sun_Records mastermind Sam Phillips could have foreseen how much of pop music’s future would be directly indebted to his label’s output, he probably would have hung onto his artists a little longer. In the ‘50s, Phillips’s modest but mighty Memphis recording studio birthed those early, earth-shaking tracks by Elvis Presley, Howlin’ Wolf, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and Johnny Cash—to name just a few. They moved on to bigger labels fairly quickly, but almost all of them made their most influential records at the Sun Studio at 706 Union Avenue.
