ʻO Jerry Lee Lewis he mea mele a me ka haku mele mai ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa. Ma hope o ka loaʻa ʻana o ka kaulana, ua hāʻawi ʻia ka maestro i ka inoa ʻo The Killer. Ma ke kahua, "hana" ʻo Jerry i kahi hōʻike maoli. ʻO ia ka mea maikaʻi loa a ʻōlelo ākea ʻo ia e pili ana iā ia iho: "He daimana wau."
Ua lilo ʻo ia i paionia no ka rock and roll, a me ke mele rockabilly. I kekahi manawa, ua paʻa ʻo ia ma kona mau lima i nā makana hanohano, me ka Grammy. ʻAʻole hiki ke poina i nā hana a Jerry Lee Lewis. I kēia lā, lohe ʻia nā haku mele i hana ʻia e ia i nā kiʻiʻoniʻoni hou a me nā hōʻike helu.
No kaʻikeʻana i ka hana hana o ka maestro, ua lawa ia e hoʻokomo i nā mele mai ka 50s-80s. He nani kāna hana. Ua hōʻike maikaʻi ʻo ia i ke ʻano i noho aliʻi ma ke ao mele o ia manawa.
ʻO ke kamaliʻi a me ka ʻōpio ʻo Jerry Lee Lewis
Ua hānau ʻia ʻo ia i ka makahiki 1935, ma ke kūlanakauhale ʻo Ferriday (East Louisiana). Ua hānau ʻia ʻo Jerry i loko o kahi ʻohana ʻilihune. Ua hana koʻu mau mākua ma ke ʻano he mahiʻai i ko lākou ola a pau. ʻOiai naʻe, ua hoʻoikaika lākou e hāʻawi i kā lākou keiki i ka mea maikaʻi loa.
Ua mālama nā mākua i kā lāua keiki. I ka lilo ʻana o Jerry hoihoi i ka hoʻokani piano, ua hoʻoholo ke poʻo o ka ʻohana e moraki i ka waiwai i mea e kūʻai ai i mea kani pipi nona.
Ma hope koke iho, hoʻopaʻa inoa kona makuahine iā ia i ka Bible Institute. ʻAʻole i ʻoluʻolu kēlā ʻano manaʻo i ke kālena ʻōpio. Ma laila nō ʻo ia i hōʻike ai i kona ʻano wiwo ʻole no ka manawa mua. I kekahi manawa, ma kahi kula hoʻonaʻauao, hoʻokani ʻo ia i ka boogie-woogie. I ka lā hoʻokahi, ua kipaku ʻia ʻo ia mai ke kula.
ʻAʻole i kau ke kanaka ʻōpio i kona ihu. ʻAʻole i hoʻokomo ʻia nā papa ma ka Bible Institute i loko o nā papahana o ke kanaka ʻōpio. Ua hoʻi ʻo ia i ka home a hoʻomaka ʻo ia e ʻimi i ke ola ma ka pāʻani ʻana i nā pā hale. A laila hoʻopaʻa ʻo ia i ka demo mua. Me kāna hana mele, hele ʻo Jerry i ka ʻāina ʻo Nashville. E ʻimi ana ʻo ia i kahi hui mele.
ʻO ke ala hana a me ke mele a Jerry Lee Lewis
I ka hōʻea ʻana i kahi o ka mea hoʻokani mele ʻōpio, ua kali ʻia kahi hōʻeha nui. Ua kānalua nā mea hana i ka hana a ke kālena ʻōpio. Akā, ʻaʻohe mea i hōʻoiaʻiʻo e puka mai kahi mea paʻakikī i ka manawa mua.
Ma ka waena o ka makahiki 50, ua ʻae ka mea nona ka lepili ʻo Sam Phillips e hāʻawi iā Jerry i ʻaelike e hoʻokuʻu i kekahi mau mele mele. Ua hoʻonoho ʻo Sam i ka mea mele i hoʻokahi kūlana - pono ʻo ia e komo i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i nā moʻolelo e nā mea pena ʻē aʻe o kāna lepili. Ua lilo ʻo ia i mea hoʻokani pila ma ke ʻano rockabilly.
E hala kekahi makahiki a e kamaʻilio ʻia ʻo Jerry ma kahi ʻano ʻokoʻa loa. Na ke kanaka kaulana kaulana o ka honua e lawe mai i nā mele e like me: Whole Lotta Shakin 'Goin' On, Crazy Arms a me Great Balls of Fire. Ma hope o ka hōʻike ʻana i ka hana, ua hiki iā ia ke hoʻokō i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i kahi ʻoihana hana.
ʻO kēia kekahi o nā mea hīmeni liʻiliʻi i hoihoi loa i ka nānā ʻana ma ke kahua. Ua hana ʻo ia me he pupule lā. Me nā kuʻekuʻe wāwae o kona mau kāmaʻa, kuʻi ʻo ia i nā kī o kahi mea kani, hoʻolei i kahi noho a hoʻokani ʻole. I kekahi manawa noho ʻo ia ma ka lihi o ke kahua, a i kekahi manawa ma ka piano wale nō.
ʻO Jerry Lee Lewis hōʻino
I ka pau ʻana o nā makahiki 50, ua hū ʻia kahi hōʻino maoli i ka wā o ka ʻaha mele kaulana. ʻO ke kumu o ka hoʻopiʻi ʻana i ke ola pilikino o kahi mea kaulana. Ma muli o nā hanana e holo nei, ua kāpae ʻia nā ʻaha mele a pau. Eia kekahi, ʻaʻole i hoʻokani hou ʻia ke mele a Jerry ma ka lekiō. Ua papa inoa ʻeleʻele ka hōkū.
Ua haʻalele ʻo Sam Phillips ma hope o ka hana ʻana mai kāna papa, me ka hoʻohālike ʻana ʻaʻole lākou i hui pū. Me he mea lā ua kūʻē ke ao holoʻokoʻa iā ia i kēlā manawa. A ʻo Alan Freed wale nō i mālama pono i ka mea mele. Hoʻokomo mau ʻo ia i nā haku mele na Jerry Lee Lewis ma ka lewa.
ʻO ia kekahi o nā wā paʻakikī loa o kona ola. ʻAʻohe ona koho ma mua o ka hoʻokani ʻana i loko o nā pā a me nā hale pāʻani. Ua hoʻoikaika kēia kūlana i ka mea pena e hoʻopaʻa i kahi hoʻonohonoho boogie instrumental o ka hana mele a ka Glenn Miller Orchestra In the Mood ma lalo o ka pseudonym The Hawk. ʻAʻole i loaʻa ka scam. Ua wehe koke ʻia ʻo Jerry. I kēlā manawa, aneane kēlā me kēia poʻe kamaʻāina ʻAmelika i ʻike i kona leo.
I ka makahiki 63 o ke kenekulia i hala, ua pau ka ʻaelike me ka studio recording Sun Records. Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia nā lima o Jerry, a ua hoʻoholo ʻo ia e lilo i ʻāpana o ka lepili Mercury Records.
Ua maopopo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻo ia ke koho kūpono ma hope o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻia ʻana o ke mele I'm on Fire. Ua pana ka track a lilo i mea paʻi. Manaʻo ʻo Jerry e manaʻoʻiʻo hou ka lehulehu iā ia, akā ʻaʻole i hiki mai ka hana mana. A laila, huli ka lehulehu o ʻAmelika i ko lākou manaʻo i ka Beatles. Ua pau ka makemake o ka poe aloha mele rock and roll.
Akā ʻaʻole i haʻalele ka mea hoʻokani pila. Manaʻolana ʻo ia e lanakila hou i ke aloha o ka poʻe pā. Ma ke keena hoʻopaʻa leo hou, kākau ʻo ia i mau LP hou aʻe. Ke kamaʻilio nei mākou e pili ana i nā hōʻiliʻili ʻo The Return Of Rock, Memphis Beat a me Soul My Way. Ua hilinaʻi ʻo Jerry i ka noʻonoʻo a me ka maikaʻi, akā, auwe, ʻaʻole i holo kāna hoʻolālā. Mai ka manaʻo pāʻoihana, he hemahema ka hana.
Hoʻi i ka kaulana
Ua hoʻololi wale ke kūlana i ka waena o 60s. ʻO ia ka manawa i hoʻonui ai ka mea pena i kāna discography me ka album nani Live at the Star Club. E hoʻomanaʻo i kēia lā ua manaʻo ʻia ka diski ka piko o ka pōhaku a me ka ʻōwili.
Eia naʻe, ua loaʻa iā ia ke kūlana o ka mea mele i ʻimi ʻia ma hope wale nō o ka hōʻike ʻana i ka haku mele ʻO Another Place, Another Time. Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ke mele ma ke ʻano he hoʻokahi. ʻO ka ʻāpana mele ma luna o nā laina kiʻekiʻe o nā palapala ʻAmelika. Ma ka nalu o ka kaulana, hoʻopaʻa ʻo ia i kekahi mau haku mele ma ke ʻano like. Hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻoikaika i ka mana o ka mea hoʻokani pila.
Pīhoihoi ka poʻe pā i ke mele a me ka māmā o nā haku mele hou a Jerry. ʻO ka hopena, ua lilo ʻo ia i hoʻokahi o nā mele kiʻekiʻe loa ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa. I kēia manawa ua makemake ka poʻe pā e kamaʻāina me nā hoʻopaʻa mele mua a ka mea pena. Ua loaʻa i ka mea nona ka Sun Records ke kūlana i ka manawa, hoʻokuʻu i nā plastics mua i nā helu nui.
I ka hoʻomaka ʻana o nā makahiki 70, ua ʻike ʻia ka mea pena ma ka hōʻike lekiō kaulana ʻo Grand Ole Opry. Eia nō hoʻi, ʻaʻole me ka ʻole o nā hana hoʻopunipuni a Jerry. Hāʻawi ʻia iā ia he 8 mau minuke e kamaʻilio. Akā, ua hīmeni ka mea hoʻokani pila i kona puʻuwai, a laila hiki ke kamaʻilio e pili ana i ke ola a me nā hoʻolālā no ka wā e hiki mai ana.
A hiki i ka pau ʻana o nā makahiki 70, hoʻomau ka mea leo i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i nā LP ma kāna ʻano ʻāina punahele. I ka makahiki 1977, ua hōʻike ʻo ia i kāna super-hit hope loa i nā mea pā o kāna hana. ʻOiaʻiʻo, ke kamaʻilio nei mākou e pili ana i ka ʻāpana mele Middle Age Crazy.
I ka waena o 80s, ua hoʻonani kona inoa i ka Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Ma hope koke iho, ua ʻike ʻia e pili ana i kona hoʻi ʻana i ke keena hoʻopaʻa leo ʻo Sun Records. Ua komo ʻo Maestro i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana o ka Papa '55 LP. Ua hele pū ʻo ia me nā mea hoʻokani maikaʻi: Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash a me Carl Perkins. E like me ka mea i hoʻolālā ʻia e nā mea hoʻonohonoho, ua manaʻo ʻia ka hōʻiliʻili e lilo i analogue o ka Million Dollar Quartet. Ua ʻoluʻolu nā mea hoʻokalakupua mele i ka hana. Wahi a ka poʻe loea, ʻaʻole i hōʻike ka poʻe mele i ka lewa i lanakila i ka makahiki 50.
E ala aʻe i ka moʻolelo pilikino o ka mea mele ʻo Jerry Lee Lewis
ʻEkolu mau makahiki wale nō e hala a e hāʻule kekahi nalu kaulana iā Jerry. A laila hoʻopaʻa hou ʻo ia i kekahi mau mele kahiko no ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni ʻo Big Fireballs. Hoʻokumu ʻia ka lipine i nā hoʻomanaʻo o ka wahine mua a ka mea pena.
I ka hoʻomaka ʻana o nā makahiki 90, ua hoʻomaka ke mele ʻo It Was the Whiskey Talkin' (Not Me). Ua lilo ka mele i mea kani no ka lipine "Dick Tracy". A laila hele ʻo ia i kahi huakaʻi lōʻihi. ʻO ka ʻiʻo a hiki i ka hopena o nā makahiki 90, e huakaʻi ʻo ia a puni ka honua me kāna repertoire waiwai.
I ka makahiki 2005, ua hana ʻia kekahi hanana nui. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ua loaʻa iā ia ka makana Grammy hanohano. Ua loaʻa iā ia kahi makana no "Contribution to the Development of Music".
Ma ka nalu o ka kaulana, hōʻike ka mea pena i kahi album hou. Ke kamaʻilio nei mākou e pili ana i ka LP Last Man Standing. Ua hoʻopaʻa ʻo ia i ka hapa nui o nā mele hou i kahi duet me nā mea kaulana ʻAmelika. Ua loaʻa ka album i kahi hanohano ʻehā ma ka pakuhi ʻAmelika hanohano.
Nā kikoʻī o ke ola pilikino o ka mea pena
He kanaka aloha ka mea hookani pila. He paʻakikī ke manaʻoʻiʻo, akā hiki iā ia ke hoʻohui i kahi papa hana huakaʻi paʻa me nā huakaʻi aloha. Ua male ʻo ia i 7 manawa. ʻO ka wahine mua a ka mea kaulana he kaikamahine i kapa ʻia ʻo Dorothy Barton. Ua noho pū lāua no hoʻokahi makahiki a me ka hapa iki. Ua male ʻo ia iā Jane Mitchum. Ua hānau kekahi wahine maikaʻi iā ia i ʻelua keiki, akā ʻaʻole hiki iā lākou ke mālama iā Jerry i ka pūnana ʻohana. Ma hope o 4 mau makahiki, ua hemo ka male.
A hiki i 1958, ʻaʻohe ʻike e pili ana i ke ola pilikino o kahi mea kaulana. Eia naʻe, i ka wā o ka huakaʻi ma UK, ua ʻike ʻia e ka mea haʻiʻōlelo ʻo Ray Berry ua male ka mea mele i kāna kaikuahine nui ʻo Myra Gale Brown. Ua huhū nā poʻe i ka makahiki 13 wale nō ke kaikamahine.
Ua ʻae ʻo Myra lāua ʻo Jerry i kā lāua pilina ma ka hopena o nā makahiki 50. ʻAʻole i liʻuliʻu ua hānau ʻo ia i kahi keikikāne mai kāna kāne mai, he mau makahiki wale nō kona ola ʻana, a laila he kaikamahine, ʻo Phoebe. I ka makahiki 70, ua ʻike ʻia ua haʻalele ka wahine i ke kāne. Wahi a Myra, ua luhi ʻo ia i ke koʻikoʻi mau o kāna kāne. Ua ʻōlelo ka wahine he hana ʻino maoli kāna kāne mua.
ʻO ka mea mele, ʻaʻole i maʻa i ka hoʻolimalima manawa mehameha, male koke i kahi kaikamahine i kapa ʻia ʻo Jaren Elizabeth Gunn Pate. Ua hānau ʻo ia he kaikamahine nāna. Akā ʻaʻole i holo pono kēia mau pilina. Ua lawe ka wahine i ka mea ipo a hoʻopiʻi no ka hemo. ʻAʻole hiki ke hoʻopau i ka male ʻana no ke kumu he pule ma mua ona, ua make ʻo ia i loko o kāna loko wai ponoʻī. He nui ka poʻe i manaʻo ʻaʻole kēia he ulia wale nō, akā he pepehi kanaka i hoʻolālā ʻia e Jerry. Eia naʻe, he XNUMX% alibi ka mea kaulana.
Nā pilina hou aku
Ma ke kūlana o ka wahine kāne make, ʻaʻole ʻo ia e hala ma mua o hoʻokahi makahiki. ʻAʻole i liʻuliʻu ua makemake ʻo ia i kahi kaikamahine i kapa ʻia ʻo Sean Stevens. Ua hoʻoholo ke kanaka e hoʻololi i nā kuʻuna. A lawe ʻo ia i kēia kaikamahine i ke keʻena kākau inoa. Hoʻokahi mahina a me ka hapa ka male ʻana. Ua lilo hou ʻo ia i kāne make. Ua make kāna wahine hou i ka lāʻau nui. Ua hoʻomaka hou ka lehulehu e hoʻolei aku iā Jerry, akā ua ʻike ʻia he alibi kāna i kēia manawa.
ʻAʻole i liʻuliʻu ua hoʻoholo ʻo ia i ka pilina me Kerry Mackaver. Ma ke ala, ʻo kēia wale nō ka wahine i hoʻokō i kahi wahi i loko o ka puʻuwai o ka mea mele no ka lōʻihi. Ua noho pū lāua no 21 makahiki. Ua hānau ʻo ia i ka hōkū o hoʻokahi keiki. I ka makahiki 2004, ua ʻike ʻia e pili ana i ka hemo ʻana o Kerry lāua ʻo Jerry.
ʻO ka wahine hope loa, a ʻo ka wahine paha a ka mea mele, he wahine i kapa ʻia ʻo Judith Brown. Ua ʻae lākou i ka pilina ma 2012. Ke nānā aku nei nā kāne i ka harmonious a nani.
ʻO nā mea hoihoi e pili ana i ka mea mele
- Ma kekahi o kāna mau ʻaha mele, ua puhi ʻo ia i kāna piano ponoʻī a hiki ke hoʻokani liʻiliʻi ma luna.
- Hoʻopilikia pinepine ʻia nā mea kani i kāna mau hana. No ka laʻana, ua paʻi ʻo ia i ka piano me kona mau lālā haʻahaʻa a me kona poʻo. I kekahi manawa ua ʻeha ʻo ia iā ia iho.
- Ua kokoke pepehi ʻo ia i kāna mea hoʻokani bass. Hoʻopā ʻo Lewis i kāna pū a me ka manaʻo ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia, pana ʻo ia iā ia ma ka umauma. ʻO ka mea pōmaikaʻi, ua ola ka mea hoʻokani pila.
- I ka makahiki 2004, ua koho ʻo Rolling Stone i nā Pōhaku Nui o ke ahi #96 ma kā lākou papa inoa o ka 500 mele nui loa o nā manawa a pau.
- Ua ʻōlelo ʻia ua pili ka inoa ʻo "Killer" iā ia ma muli o ka hopena kupaianaha o ka ʻōpio virtuoso i ka lehulehu.
Mea mele i kēia manawa
Noho ka mea pena i Nesbit me kona ʻohana. Aia ka hui ma lalo o kona mana. Hoʻonani ʻia ke kula i ka ʻuhane o nā kuʻuna pōhaku maikaʻi loa. I loko o ka hale kalapu he wahi no kahi piano, kahi i hoʻokani ai ka mea hoʻokani pila.
Ma 2018, ua nui nā ʻaha mele maestro. Hoʻokipa maikaʻi ka lehulehu i ka mea pena. Manaʻo ka makahiki iā ia iho, no laila i kēia lā ke hoʻohana nei ʻo ia i ka hapa nui o kona manawa. Nui ka hoʻomaha ʻana o Jerry a makemake ʻo ia e hoʻolimalima manawa me kona ʻohana.
I hoʻokahi makahiki ma hope mai, ua ʻike ʻia ua loaʻa ka mea pena i ka maʻi ʻeha. Ua mālama ʻia kēia hanana ma ka lā 23 o Pepeluali. Wahi a nā ʻohana, ua ola ʻo Jerry a ua maikaʻi.
Ua piha ʻo Jerry i 2020 i ka makahiki 85. No ka hoʻohanohano ʻana i kēia hanana, ua hoʻomaikaʻi nā hōkū ʻAmelika i ka mea pena ma ka hoʻonohonoho ʻana i kahi ʻaha mele nona. No ka mea mele, ua hana lākou i nā mele kiʻekiʻe a koʻikoʻi o kāna repertoire.
