“The Sun Records family is saddened to hear about the passing of Jerry Lee Lewis. The last man standing of the Sun Records’ icons, Jerry Lee Lewis was a cornerstone of the elite group that launched Rock and Roll in the 50’s. He was an individual who always did it his way, with his famous slogan “I am what I am.” He will be remembered as one of the greatest original rockers of the 20th century. As the music industry and fans mourn his passing, we find comfort in knowing that Jerry Lee will join his departed Sun Records colleagues in keeping “Good Rockin’ Tonight” active throughout the universe.

Thank you Jerry Lee for being who you were. Your music will be appreciated forever.”

– John A Singleton and the entire Sun Records family
