Jerry Lee Lewis was a superstar of rockabilly, an early style of rock & roll that combined elements of country music with R&B influences. Lewis, along with Fats Domino and Little Richard, was part of a generation of pianists who dominated rock & roll. He was renowned for his high-energy performances that scandalized conservative audiences, playing while standing, pounding his fist or feet on the keyboard, and, according to rock lore, once setting a piano ablaze with lighter fluid before performing "Great Balls of Fire." This instrument, painted gold, was Lewis's home piano from 1957 to 2017.
