Live at the Palomino Club (Black Friday 2023)

Jerry Lee Lewis was one of the true pioneers of rock’n’roll and, with perhaps the exception of Duane Eddy, outlived all of his peers, despite his high-octane life style. He was one of the first rock artists to have his thrilling performances captured on a live album release, while as recently as 2010 Mean Old Man garnered some of his best album sales to date (Last Man Standing, 2006) remains his biggest seller).

1979 witnessed Jerry Lee’s first performance at the Palomino Club in Van Nuys, California. This legendary honkytonk was one of Lee’s favourite stomping grounds, and he was something of a favourite son with the patrons. He played for three nights from 18-20 June and there were further appearances in 1981 and 1985. In 1991, some thirty years ago, The Complete Palomino Club Recordings – a double disc set – was released on Tomato Records. The Tomato set was short-lived and is reissued here, worldwide, due to continuing demand.

There have been many releases of live Jerry Lee albums over the years, of varying quality, however At The Palomino must rate as one of his very finest. In May of this year (2022) – and not before time – it was announced that Jerry Lee had been inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame, and many of his country hits are featured here. You certainly get a whole Iotta Jerry Lee with this release!
