Down in Louisiana we call that Boogie Woogie!

Two of his surviving children are a son Jerry Lee Lewis III and a daughter Phoebe Allan Lewis. In 1989 a major motion picture based on his early life in rock & roll Great Balls of Fire! brought him back into the public eye especially when he decided to re-record all his songs for the movie soundtrack. In the meantime he was determined to gain back some of his popularity.

This reignited his career and throughout the late '60s and '70s he regularly topped the country-western charts. Lewis has had a dozen gold records in both rock and country won several Grammy awards including a Lifetime Achievement Award. In the 21st century Lewis continues to tour to audiences around the world and still releases new albums.
