A fan who was a member of the Jerry Lee Lewis International Fan Club almost from the beginning, sent me this gem, which I haven't seen in years, since all my JLLIFC photo catalog negatives are gone.... This photo was taken outside of the studio where the Alan Freed TV show ("Big Beat") was performed. Elaine decided we should start a fan club for Jerry, after we had spent a week with him in NYC between the first Steve Allen Show (7/28/57, when I first met Jerry) and this Alan Freed show (8/2/57). Jerry and the band were about ready to leave town. They were headed to Hartford, CT for a live show. Pictured here (l. to r.), Elaine, J.W. Brown in the rear, Russell Smith, a young Killer, and myself. In the photo, we are displaying the document that Jerry signed (and all of us witnessed) which said that Elaine and I had his authority to run a fan club for him all over the world in perpetuity! Highly illegal, I'm sure, but he was up for it... and I lived up to it. After their car drove off, I got names and ddresses of all the people who were hanging out, and some of them actually joined the fan club. I loved that shirt. There even was a photo in a agazine somewhere of Myra wearing it. Another photo I took of Jerry wearing this striped shirt, looking out the window of the car, was on the first JLL fan club membership card. I wonder if anyone still has that. So that all JLL fans can enjoy this moment in history, I give permission to all the folks on this email list to post it in their JLL magazines and on their Web sites, along with my story.
