"Myra was my second cousin and she was 14, not 13 as the papers kept saying. I believe that if the record company had stuck by me and really been on the ball, I don't think I would have the decline that I did have. A certain decline, maybe. But if it had been handled right all that bad publicly wouldn't have meant a thing. Tom Parker made a statement that if he'd had me he could have made a zillion dollars out of it. We were married for 13 years and one day, Myra just upped and walked out. Thirteen years right out the window, just like that."
>>130235094No Jerry, she really was 13, and she left you because you kept beating the shit out of her lol
>>130235094He forgot the part where he cheated on her and beat the shit out of her every day while high out of his mind on drugs.
>Myra Lewis filed for divorce in 1970, citing "extreme mental and physical abuse."[3]
>>130235343>>130235094reminder that boomers worshiped dudes like him
Based and redpilled
>>130235540Why do zoomlennials have the morals of a 50 year old church secretary from Kansas?
Seeing as to how Myra was born in 1944 and they got married December '57 I don't think she was 14.
>>130235094Remember the time he shot one of his bandmates in his living room and then yelled at him for getting blood on the carpet?
>Once in 1975, Lewis walked into a gas station in Tennessee and found a rack of bootleg 8-tracks of his songs for sale there. He argued with the cashier and told him they were illegal and he couldn't sell them. The cashier replied that the manager put the tapes out, not him, and there was nothing he could do about. Lewis then walked over to the rack, took out a cigarette lighter, set the rack on fire, and left.
>>130235343>>130235229>be one of the last lucky ones in history who could get a cute hebe wife without going to jail>decide to treat her like shit instead of cherishing her every single momentdumb redneck asshole
one time he drove into the gates of Graceland while drunk and Elvis had to call the cops on him
>>130236228He beat her for having a wandering eye, the true nature of women without corporal punishment
>>130236400The og rock and roll guys were insane
>>130236423well not Fats Domino he was a very nice, boring normalfag
>>130235748is that like Neil Young flipping out when he found bootlegs of his songs in an LA record store?
>>130235094not even Chuck Berry did as many scummy things as this guy did
>>130236228Evidently it wasn't ok back then either.
>>130236438Sometimes I wonder if Fats was a little... slow, from clips I've seen he couldn't really articulate his thoughts
>>130236228
>>130235540he was the great one
>>130236444he didn't "flip out," he just calmly said he was going to take them without paying since it was illegal to sell anyway. then the guy caught up with him and explained that his boss would blame him since he would see it as shoplifting, then a protracted, boring phone conversation later and Neil took it with the owner's understanding why.nobody ever raised their voice, set anything on fire, or "flipped out" in any way whatsoever. the whole thing is on youtube. it's somewhat interesting as a window into Young's personality, a 70s time capsule, an insight into the music scene then; in this case the retail part and how fans could get extra material via bootleg LPs before the internet.but otherwise it's super boring.
>>130235540I'm 36 and I basically worship him musically, the rest has never been of any concern to me.
>>130236411Old school rock'n'rollers were amphetamine fuelled jailbait hunters. Do you really think that nice girls would've hung out with them?
caravaggio murdered a guy. jerry lee lewis shot his bass player and fucked his underage cousin. artists. live at the star club still rips.
>>130240844my grandma unwillingly lost her virginity to Jerry Arnold (local rockabilly star in Texas) when she was 16 and she wasn't too happy about that, so...
