On august 2nd 1993 Jerry Lee Lewis did a session with The Stones during the VOODOO LOUNGE-sessions at Ronnie's homestudio in Killdare. This information was added recently on Zentgraf Complete Works. This fact was also mentioned in Ronnie's Book. He said he listend to the tapes recently and they sounded great!
So why wait and release them, it is believed they played a lot of country stuff that day/night.

I'd love to hear that too!

Any idea what songs were recorded???

I've known about this session since 1993 (I'm a BIG JLL fan), but it was rumoured that Jerry's "people" wanted too much money, so none of it was released.

Jerry Lee Lewis was living in Ireland from March '93 until about a year later), & Ronnie Wood got together with him for at least two Irish concerts, as well as his appearance on 'Aspel & Co'.

Is Jerry Lee still going strong?
He must have a better constitution than Keith

He's doing fine, looking & sounding much healthier than he did on that 'Last Man Standing Live!' show (featuring Ronnie) a couple of years back. He usually only does 1 or 2 shows per month these days, but he has a European Tour lined up for later in the year:

25.10.08 - London, England - 100 Club
28.10.08 - London, England - The Forum
01.11.08 - Hamburg, Germany - CCH
04.11.08 - Berlin, Germany - Tempodrom
08.11.08 - Helsinki, Finland - Finlandia Hall
10.11.08 - Zurich, Switzerland - Hallenstadion
14.11.08 - Paris, France - Le Zenith
16.11.08 - Copenhagen, Denmark - Falconer Hall
19.11.08 - Amsterdam, Holland - Heineken Music Hall
22.11.08 - Mannheim, Germany - SAP-Arena
26.11.08 - Brussels, Belgium - Forest National

I'm a big fan of his Mr. Lewis' too and have been since I first saw him as a child. I heard rumors about these sessions some time ago. Never thought is was real until recently, like this morning! That stuff should be out in the streets for us all to hear! Too bad its sitting on someones shelf. It would not surprise me if Ronnie and the other participants weren't chomping at the bit to work with him back then and every chance they get now. The formula of having some top line artists participate always helps push a music release to a wider audience. Of course the music must be good and Mr. Lewis delivered that with ease with Last Man Standing. This unreleased stuff would be a great followup to LMS.

As far as those "people" are concerned, they need to realize it's of no monetary value to anyone if it's not available for sale. Those "People" you speak of sometime get these things backwards. Did I just say that?

Charles, I sure wish your dad would do a similar project to 'Last Man Standing'...

LoFL!

well, asking for too much money might be getting things backwards,
and/or a tried-and-true way of indicating one doesn't want something released -
so maybe Jerry Lee's "people" felt the performances on the tapes don't shine.
perceptions like that often change over time, though. we can hope!

I'd love to just be in the recording studio when that happened. Would not have to contribute one note, just sit back and watch.

Surely a box set with this collaboration on it would sell well?
